gslist -X filtering Colorcodes impossible

Hi.

I'm trying to use gslist 0.8.7a to get ServerIP,Serverport and Servername for a game called Americas Army.

using

Code:

gslist.exe -X \hostname -n armygame

Im getting just what I need, but the usual 4 byte indicating color codes(Americas Army in unreal based, so it should be 27,r,g,b) have all bytes below 32 changed to 46.

Am I guessing right that the "fault" is found here in enctypex_decoder.c?

Code:

                    
if(infobuff) {
                        // NO there is not the cleaning of the data here!!! (data_cleaner in gslist) sorry
                        infobufflen += sprintf(infobuff + infobufflen, "\\%s\\", par[i].name);
                        c = infobuff + infobufflen;
                        infobufflen += sprintf(infobuff + infobufflen, "%s", p);
                        for(; *c; c++) {    // minimal cleaning done directly on the output infobuff
                            if(*c < ' ') *c = '.';
                            if(*c == '\\') *c = '/';
                        }

is there anyway to use "-C" option to make gslist not to filter anything, or are there any other option I could use?

yeah that was a temporary work-around to avoid redundant code, so now I have decided to put the data_cleaner function directly in enctypex which seems the best solution.
the new beta version is available here:

let me know if you have other suggestions

That worked like a charm.

Thx for the quick relpy and fix.

Amazing work as always.

I didn't noticed that the data_cleaner didn't removed everything because I was using -C and cleaning them myself.

Doesn' t this code from enctypex_data_cleaner mean that it skips 3 chars then it should skip 4(27,r,g,b)?

Code:

            if(c == 0x1b) {                 // Unreal colors
                src += 2;
                max -= 2;
                continue;
            }

yes, you are right for that color, I don't know why I setted it to 2 because it should be the same for all the Unreal games... mah, probably a distraction error.

in the meantime I have also optimized the handling of the so called "strange chars" (those >= 0x7f) using an array which allows to save lot of cpu cycles compared to the previous "switch/case".
(note that I have not updated the beta)

are there other problems/suggestions?

I have just released a new beta of gslist:

http://aluigi.org/beta/gslist.zip

the main changes are in the webgui (although it's no longer supported) and the enctypeX where there was a bug with negative numbers.
if someone tests it please let me know if there are problems.

I have just updated the beta again (note that the version number doesn't change so clean your browser's cache to be sure to download it).
the following is a summary of the changes from version 0.8.7a:

Code:

enctypeX:
- added the handling and filtering of the colors, the chars major than 0x7f and the html/SQL chars (optional)
- fixed a bug in the handling of negative numbers when is used infobuff in enctypex_decoder_convert_to_ipport which caused chaotic values
- added the argument infobuff_size in enctypex_decoder_convert_to_ipport

gslist:
- updated enctypeX
- assigned a type to the various function pointers in multi_query.h
- faster colors filtering
- cleaning of the code

gslist webgui:
- although it's no longer supported I have added support for enctypeX (servers are showed immediately without pinging them, faster than light!)
- optimized sorting function
- default port from 80 to 28903
- avoid multiple instances on the same port
- gslistweb.exe now parses the options passed at command-line (useful for custom port, enctype, enctypeX_query and so on)
- the filter now is no longer saved for error because it's a temporary string only used for being assigned to the games in Config
