FileOpenDialog - couldn't get it to work with init dir in too long path but it does set FileRecycle - not applicable: too long paths can not be put to recycle bin anyway. FileGetShortcut - couldn't get FileCreateShortcut to work, so didn't proceed here. FileCreateShortcut - couldn't get it to work. FileCreateNTFSLink - not sure what it is and what it does.

: Standard file management functions rewritten to overcome the MAX_PATH limitation of 256 characters by: - prepending the unicode prefix \\?\ or \\?\UNC\ where needed - calling kernel32 DLL with the unicode versions of the relevant functions - validating directory structure before calling the DLL - applying wildcards where not supported by the DLL - full compliance of parameters and return values with the equivalent native AutoIt functions: - there may be additional use of or when required - there may be additional values that existing parameters can accept This UDF was created because: - not all of the above conditions are met by the WinAPIEx UDF - there was a need for convenient way to make existing scripts support long file names Native AutoIt functions that did not find their place in this UDF: FileChangeDir - couldn't get it to work. : LFN AutoIt Version : 3.3.14.2 UDF Version. The script converter is GUI-based, with a clear display of the conversion: original/converted lines displayed side-by-side, tooltip to show the context of the converted lines showing 10 lines before and after:Īlso the icon for the LFN conversion script, if you wish to compile:Įxpand collapse popup #include-Once #INDEX# = Title. Tested on file systems: fixed NTFS, removable NTFS, network ext4 it creates long paths in C:\TEMP\LFN, so it won't be too hard to cleanup later once you are done with your tests.

do feel free to extend the demo script with more flags combinations. note that after each command the script pauses with a MsgBox, so you can review the results of the operation.

download the UDF itself (name it "LFN.au3") and the demo script to the same folder, and run the script. Hereunder, as well as the UDF, is a demo script of all of this UDF main functions. _LFN_FileCopy lost its unique flags, and is now utilizing the native function FileCopy. _LFN_DirCreate(" \\ ?\C:\some\ridiculously\long\path\over\260\characters") _LFN_DirCreate("C:\some\ridiculously\long\path\over\260\characters") the UDF functions take care of that. this works: You do not need to specify the unicode prefix. it works exactly the same, except when it comes to too long paths it this case the LFN functions work where the native AutoIt functions fail. for example, use _LFN_DirCreate() instead of DirCreate(). so basically, the use of every LFN function is identical to the use of its native equivalent (same parameters and return values). This UDF was created because i needed a convenient way to make my existing scripts support long paths. in addition it requires some preparation steps, like creating directory structure, listing files to support wildcards, etc. The concept is to call the unicode versions of the file management functions in kernel32.dll, and use the unicode prefix \\?\ or \\?\UNC\ where needed. this is progressing leisurely, and until completed, i re-wrote most of AutoIt core file management functions to support long paths.
Somewhere in the Developer Chat forum, i suggested that long paths should be supported natively by AutoIt. Well, you know how when your total path length exceeds 256 characters, bad things start to happen, right?
