Enigma VB 4.60 Build 20120606

Post by teplak »

I read in new version history by 4.60 the following properties:
- Added ability to write to virtual files

What's meaning this detailed? What are files? Where will write? Example?

- Improved access handling for files operations

The questions are the same: what are files, what operations etc

Thanks in advance

Hi teplak,

This is some kind of major updates. Imagine you add a file in the Virtual Box - Files tree. You can read it, execute. With all previous versions this was only everything you could do with the file. With the new version you can also write data to virtual file, resize the size, re-create the file, etc. But note, all the changes will be discarded after restart (we are working on an option that allow to save the state of virtual system before exit).
teplak wrote:- Improved access handling for files operations
If you open file for only query operations then you can't read it. Previous versions allowed you to read the file if the read permissions were not set when file handle was created. Now, in this case, you'll get ACCESS_DENIED error.
Same with write permissions.

This mean, that become possible hidden database files writing, and after processes or transactions
the virtual exe system file will update yourself? This sounds pretty exciting....

Yes, so after restarting the application will see the changes you've made to the database.
Current version will discard these changes after restart, and will load just default file.

This sounds like an excellent feature! It will be great to have this as it can then be used for a portable application to store users configuration settings.

Are there any plans to make this for The Enigma Protector? ...and, also are there any plans to allow this (if it's technically possible) for the virtual Registry?

Hi shamballa,

Yes, of course, all the changes in the Enigma Virtual Box are carried to the Enigma Protector.

We are using Enigma Virtual Box as a test platform for a new features. Once new functionality is carefully tested it is being moved to Enigma Protector.

Virtual Registry, of course, will have the same ability.
