| | Yup, its already in my windows/system32 directory. I think my version of the dll is different from the one you include Fiendish, because when I copied the one from my windows/system32 directory into the mushclient folder, it worked fine with screen readers. | | Top |

| Thank you for this thread. I was having a similar issue and the answers here have been very helpful.
About llthreads, it can be linked statically, so it doesn't require the MSVCR100.dll file. I managed to do so by following the instructions here:
http://www.rhyous.com/2010/09/16/avoiding-the-msvcr100-dll-or-msvcr100d-dll
(The resulting .DLL is bigger, around 180k, but yet smaller than MSVCR100.dll.)
I recompiled/linked llthreads and luasec to work with lua5.1.dll, and they seem to be doing fine on the tests I've run so far. | | Top |

| | Since we can now check whether a thread has completed its job, the next step for me was to try to create something like a wait.lua that would allow you to pause execution and resume it when a thread completed. My attempts were pretty far from successful though :( | | Top |

| I got this working with the vanilla version of llthreads, which doesn't support thread:alive(). I make a list of files that require to be updated, based on a Dropbox file that has a list of current versions, and queue/download them ok.
I can share the code if you want, though it's not necessarily pretty. It uses global variables and a timer.
I'm pretty sure there's a more elegant solution, which of course is eluding me. :) | | Top |

Are you polling file timestamps/hashes, or do you only work with files that contain their own version information? |

At this moment I'm rewriting the scripts, so we're in transition.
The old version is very primitive. It only supports plugins that include 2 functions, called via CallPlugin(), to check which files the plugin uses. So users needs to run an alias to update a particular plugin, or all of them, and the script doesn't check if the files in my Dropbox are actually newer.
For the new version, I'm keeping the modification timestamps in a text file in my Dropbox (auto-generated by a script every X minutes). The new script detects which plugins are outdated by checing the date_modified field in the XML header of plugins vs those timestamps. I still haven't decided how to handle other files (modules, images, etc.). For now, they're all updated, brute-force, but I'll probably use hashes when I get to that stage.
Also, I rebuilt llthreads.dll, and it's 72 kbytes, statically linked (so it doesn't require msvcr100.dll.) I had toggled some stuff for testing, which made the file bigger. | | Top |
