Delphi StrToInt on Hex String WORD, UShort, 16 Bit hex fails - delphi

I currently use.
Here is a few outputs I formatted them they were all together like this.
E14802000003FA00014C0000031501A8
currentAttackCount := StrToInt('$' + Copy(CurHex, 17, 4));
Log('Packet = ' + CurHex + ' Count = ' + IntToStr(currentAttackCount) + ' STR = ' + '$' + Copy(CurHex, 17, 4));
Formatted outputs
Packet = E1 48 02 00 00 03 FA 00 [01 4C] 00 00 03 15 01 A8 [Count = 76] [STR = $014C]
Packet = E1 48 02 00 00 03 FA 00 [01 4D] 00 00 03 15 02 26 [Count = 77] [STR = $014D]
Packet = E1 48 02 00 00 03 FA 00 [01 4F] 00 00 03 15 02 26 [Count = 79] [STR = $014F]
As you can see the STR
output which is STR = $014C
code: 'STR = ' + '$' + Copy(CurHex, 17, 4));
Now if you look at the StrToInt
currentAttackCount := StrToInt('$' + Copy(CurHex, 17, 4));
It's pretty much the same as STR so shouldn't $014C aka 0x014C be represented as 332 instead of 76
The 76 seems to come from the $4C aka 0x4C of the $014C why does it ignore the first 2 Hex Characters

Ah I think I figured it out.
`currentAttackCount: Byte;`
I increased it to
currentAttackCount: Word;
hopefully that would solve the problem.. missed it because it's a global variable and there is soo much code.

String returns only numbers after separatedBy

I´m trying to separate a string like the following:
let path = "/Users/user/Downloads/history.csv"
do {
let contents = try NSString(contentsOfFile: path, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8.rawValue )
let rows = contents.components(separatedBy: "\n")
print("contents: \(contents)")
print("rows: \(rows)")
}
catch {
}
I have two files, which are looking almost identical.
From the first file the output is like this:
Output File1:
contents: 2017-07-31 16:29:53,0.10109999,9.74414271,0.98513273,0.15%,42302999779,-0.98513273,9.72952650

Output File2:

So both files are readable as String because the print(content) is working.
But as soon as the string gets separated, the second file is not readable anymore.
I tried different encodings, but nothing worked. Has anyone an idea, how to force the string to the second file, to remain a readable string?
Your file is apparently UTF-16 (little-endian) encoded:
$ hexdump fullorders4.csv
0000000 4f 00 72 00 64 00 65 00 72 00 55 00 75 00 69 00
0000010 64 00 2c 00 45 00 78 00 63 00 68 00 61 00 6e 00
0000020 67 00 65 00 2c 00 54 00 79 00 70 00 65 00 2c 00
0000030 51 00 75 00 61 00 6e 00 74 00 69 00 74 00 79 00
...
For ASCII characters, the first byte of the UTF-16 encoding is the
ASCII code, and the second byte is zero.
If the file is read as UTF-8 then the zeros are converted to an
ASCII NUL character, that is what you see as \0 in the output.
Therefore specifying the encoding as utf16LittleEndian works
in your case:
let contents = try NSString(contentsOfFile: path, encoding: String.Encoding.utf16LittleEndian.rawValue)
// or:
let contents = try String(contentsOfFile: path, encoding: .utf16LittleEndian)
There is also a method which tries to detect the used encoding
(compare iOS: What's the best way to detect a file's encoding). In Swift that would be
var enc: UInt = 0
let contents = try NSString(contentsOfFile: path, usedEncoding: &enc)
// or:
var enc = String.Encoding.ascii
let contents = try String(contentsOfFile: path, usedEncoding: &enc)
However, in your particular case, that would read the file as UTF-8
again because it is valid UTF-8. Prepending a byte order mark (BOM)
to the file (FF FE for UTF-16 little-endian) would solve that
problem reliably.

Write python code in delphi AES MODE ECB

I translated two functions in delphi but i don't know if they are right, I need to write the def do_aes_encrypt(key2_t_xor) to know if I am right.
This is what I wrote in delphi:
function key_transform (old_key:string): string;
var
x :integer;
begin
result:='';
for x := 32 downto 0 do
result:= result + chr(ord(old_key[x-1])-( x mod $0C)) ;
end;
function key_xoring ( key2_t :string ; kilo_challenge :string) : string ;
var
i :integer;
begin
result := '';
i:=0 ;
while i <= 28 do begin
result := result + chr(ord(key2_t[i+1]) xor ord(kilo_challenge[3]));
result := result + chr(ord(key2_t[i+2]) xor ord(kilo_challenge[2])) ;
result := result+ chr(ord(key2_t[i+3]) xor ord (kilo_challenge[1])) ;
i := i + 4 ;
end;
end;
This is the original python code:
def key_transform(old_key):
new_key = ''
for x in range(32,0,-1):
new_key += chr(ord(old_key[x-1]) - (x % 0x0C))
return new_key
def key_xoring(key2_t, kilo_challenge):
key2_t_xor = ''
i = 0
while i <= 28:
key2_t_xor += chr(ord(key2_t[i]) ^ ord(kilo_challenge[3]))
key2_t_xor += chr(ord(key2_t[i+1]) ^ ord(kilo_challenge[2]))
key2_t_xor += chr(ord(key2_t[i+2]) ^ ord(kilo_challenge[1]))
key2_t_xor += chr(ord(key2_t[i+3]) ^ ord(kilo_challenge[0]))
i = i + 4
return key2_t_xor
def do_aes_encrypt(key2_t_xor):
plaintext = b''
for k in range(0,16):
plaintext += chr(k)
obj = AES.new(key2_t_xor, AES.MODE_ECB)
return obj.encrypt(plaintext)
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
{
kilo_challenge = kilo_header[8:12]
chalstring = ":".join("{:02x}".format(ord(k)) for k in kilo_challenge)
key2 = 'qndiakxxuiemdklseqid~a~niq,zjuxl' # if this doesnt work try 'lgowvqnltpvtgogwswqn~n~mtjjjqxro'
kilo_response = do_aes_encrypt(key_xoring(key_transform(key2),kilo_challenge))}
this code is for calculate data line 16 byte to be send as an addition to 32 byte
before
look photo the marked line in blue is what i need to calculate by the 4 byte hex befor marked in porple
and this is the key
key2 = 'qndiakxxuiemdklseqid~a~niq,zjuxl'
in delphi
because python code is working perfect
look to the photo

Constant TAO CORBA IOR

How to configure TAO corba server so that IOR string of this server generated from object_to_string is constant?
Each time the IOR string generated from object_to_string changes once server restarts. This is inconvenient since client has to update its cached server IOR string via reloading IOR file or namingservice accessing. As a result, it would be useful if server can generate a constant IOR string, no matter how many times it restarts.
My corba server is based on ACE+TAO and i do remember TAO supports constant IOR string: the IOR string each time it generates are same, and the solution is add some configurations for server. But i could not remember these configurations now.
=============================================
UPDATE:
In ACE_wrappers/TAO/tests/POA/Persistent_ID/server.cpp, i added a new function named testUniqe() which is similiar to creatPOA method. And the update file content is:
void testUniqu(CORBA::ORB_ptr orb_, PortableServer::POA_ptr poa_){
CORBA::PolicyList policies (2);
policies.length (2);
//IOR is the same even it is SYSTEM_ID
policies[0] = poa_->create_id_assignment_policy (PortableServer::USER_ID);
policies[1] = poa_->create_lifespan_policy (PortableServer::PERSISTENT);
PortableServer::POAManager_var poa_manager = poa_->the_POAManager ();
PortableServer::POA_ptr child_poa_ = poa_->create_POA ("childPOA", poa_manager.in (), policies);
// Destroy the policies
for (CORBA::ULong i = 0; i < policies.length (); ++i) {
policies[i]->destroy ();
}
test_i *servant = new test_i (orb_, child_poa_);
PortableServer::ObjectId_var oid = PortableServer::string_to_ObjectId("xushijie");
child_poa_->activate_object_with_id (oid, servant);
PortableServer::ObjectId_var id = poa_->activate_object (servant);
CORBA::Object_var object = poa_->id_to_reference (id.in ());
test_var test = test::_narrow (object.in ());
CORBA::String_var ior = orb_->object_to_string(test.in());
std::cout<<ior.in()<<std::endl;
poa_->the_POAManager()->activate();
orb_->run();
}
int
ACE_TMAIN (int argc, ACE_TCHAR *argv[])
{
try
{
CORBA::ORB_var orb =
CORBA::ORB_init (argc, argv);
int result = parse_args (argc, argv);
CORBA::Object_var obj =
orb->resolve_initial_references ("RootPOA");
PortableServer::POA_var root_poa =
PortableServer::POA::_narrow (obj.in ());
PortableServer::POAManager_var poa_manager =
root_poa->the_POAManager ();
testUniqu(orb.in(), root_poa.in());
orb->destroy ();
}
catch (const CORBA::Exception& ex)
{
ex._tao_print_exception ("Exception caught");
return -1;
}
return 0;
}
The problem is that the output server IORs are still different once restart. I also compared this code to the one in Page 412(Advance Corba Programming), but still fail..

UPDATE:
With "server -ORBListenEndpoints iiop://:1234 > /tmp/ior1", the generated two IORs are:

============================================
update:
Instead of using above code, i find a better solution with helper TAO_ORB_Manager which is used NamingService and TAO/examples/Simple. TAO_ORB_Manager encapsulates API and generate persistent IORs, as example code in Simple.cpp:
if (this->orb_manager_.init_child_poa (argc, argv, "child_poa") == -1){
CORBA::String_var str =
this->orb_manager_.activate_under_child_poa (servant_name,
this->servant_.in ());
}
This is some description for TAO_ORB_Manager:
class TAO_UTILS_Export TAO_ORB_Manager
{
/**
* Creates a child poa under the root poa with PERSISTENT and
* USER_ID policies. Call this if you want a #a child_poa with the
* above policies, otherwise call init.
*
* #retval -1 Failure

*/
int init_child_poa (int &argc,
ACE_TCHAR *argv[],
const char *poa_name,
const char *orb_name = 0);
/**
* Precondition: init_child_poa has been called. Activate <servant>

*
* #param object_name String name which will be used to create
* an Object ID for the servant.
* #param servant The servant to activate under the child POA.
*
* #return 0 on failure, a string representation of the object ID if
* successful. Caller of this method is responsible for
* memory deallocation of the string.
*/
char *activate_under_child_poa (const char *object_name,
PortableServer::Servant servant);
...................
}
After build, I can get what i want with -ORBListenEndpoints iiop://localhost:2809 option. Thanks #Johnny Willemsen help
You have to create the POA with a persistent lifespan policy, see ACE_wrappers/TAO/tests/POA/Persistent_ID as part of the TAO distribution.

SNMP trap via Indy plus russian letters

I send snmp traps from borland c++ application using indy components, (thanks Remy Lebeau for working example Implementing SNMP SendTrap using Indy components) But I have problem with russian letters.

The question is how to encode russian string for snmp properly?
Unfortunately, TIdSNMP does not support non-ASCII data at this time. This is because:
Indy's ASN.1 encode/decode functions have not been made encoding-aware yet so that strings can be converted to/from byte arrays using charsets.
TSNMPInfo encodes PDU data to a String first and then encodes that String to bytes using Indy's 8bit encoding when sending. Thus, any Unicode codepoints greater than #255 will get converted to ?. The Russian characters you are trying to send all have Unicode codepoint values greater than #255. There is no option to specify a different encoding, even though ASN.1 octet strings can technically carry character data encoded in any 8bit charset as long as both parties agree to the charset used.
In order to send cyrillic symbols via Indy's Snmp component I implemented functions which "hide" message in different encoding inside UnicodeString that used by TIdSnmp.
UnicodeString TMainForm::Windows1251ForSnmp(AnsiString str)
{
UnicodeString ustr = "";
for (int i = 0; i < str.Length(); i++)
{
unsigned char cc = *(str.c_str()+i);
wchar_t buff = 0;
memcpy((char*)&buff, &cc, 1);
ustr = ustr + buff;
}
return ustr;
}
UnicodeString TMainForm::Utf8ForSnmp(UTF8String str)
{
UnicodeString ustr = "";
for (int i = 0; i < str.Length(); i++)
{
unsigned char cc = *(str.c_str()+i);
wchar_t buff = 0;
memcpy((char*)&buff, &cc, 1);
ustr = ustr + buff;
}
return ustr;
}
UnicodeString TMainForm::Utf16ForSnmp(UnicodeString str)
{
UnicodeString ustr = "";
for (int i = 0; i < str.Length(); i++)
{
unsigned int cc = *(str.c_str()+i);
byte a = cc / 256;
byte b = cc % 256;
ustr = ustr + char(a);
ustr = ustr + char(b);
}
return ustr;
}
After message conversion by one of these functions I gave result to Indy component TIdSnmp as usually and it will be send without problem.
UnicodeString ustr = Windows1251ForSnmp("Русский");
UTF8String param = _D("Русский");
UnicodeString ustr2 = Utf8ForSnmp(param);
UnicodeString ustr3 = Utf16ForSnmp("Русский");
values->AddObject(ustr, (TObject*)ASN1_OCTSTR);
values->AddObject(ustr2, (TObject*)ASN1_OCTSTR);
values->AddObject(ustr3, (TObject*)ASN1_OCTSTR);
So, on the "other side" I recieved russian messages in Windows1251, Utf8 and Utf16 encoding.

I'm writing a program in Objective C to generate a MIDI file. As a test, I'm asking it to write a file which plays one note and stops it a delta tick afterwards.
But I'm trying to open it with Logic and Sibelius, and they both say that the file is corrupted.
Here's the hex readout of the file..
4D 54 68 64 00 00 00 06 00 01 00 01 00 40 - MThd header
4D 54 72 6B 00 00 00 0D - MTrk - with length of 13 as 32bit hex [00 00 00 0D]
81 00 90 48 64 82 00 80 48 64 - the track
delta noteOn delta noteOff
FF 2F 00 - end of file
And here's my routines to write the delta time, and write the note -
- (void) appendNote:(int)note state:(BOOL)on isMelody:(BOOL)melodyNote{ // generate a MIDI note and add it to the 'track' NSData object
char c[3];
if( on ){
c[0] = 0x90;
c[2] = volume;
} else {
c[0] = 0x80;
c[2] = lastVolume;
}
c[1] = note;
[track appendBytes:&c length:3];
}
- (void) writeVarTime:(int)value{ // generate a MIDI delta time and add it to the 'track' NSData object
char c[2];
if( value < 128 ){
c[0] = value;
[track appendBytes:&c length:1];
} else {
c[0] = value/128 | 0x80;
c[1] = value % 128;
[track appendBytes:&c length:2];
}
}
are there any clever MIDI gurus out there who can tell what's wrong with this MIDI file?
The delta time of the EOF event is missing.
