Hello
In order to know specifically what files/directories I need to run the
Xavante launcher wsapi.exe, I tried using the SysInternals Process
Monitor utility to watch what this program does when I run "wsapi
-p9999".
I'm surprised by two things:
1. Process Monitor shows no access to the Registry, although the
environment variables only include the following Lua-related entries:
LUA_DEV=C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1
LUA_PATH=;;C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1\lua\?.luac
Path=[...]C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1;C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1\clibs
PATHEXT=[...];.wlua;.lexe
Does wsapi and its dependencies really only use the LUA_DEV variable
to locate what it needs?
2. Using the following filter...
"Process Name contains wsapi"
"Command line contains wsapi"
"Path contains C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1\rocks\wsapi1円.3.4-1\samples"
... Process Monitor shows that wsapi seems to try creating files,
which are not found, but wsapi still manages to run succesfully and
wait for queries:
==========
CreateFile
C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1\rocks\wsapi1円.3.4-1\samples\lfs.lua
NAME NOT FOUND
CreateFile
C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1\rocks\wsapi1円.3.4-1\samples\lfs.lua
NAME NOT FOUND
CreateFile
C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1\rocks\wsapi1円.3.4-1\samples\rings.lua
NAME NOT FOUND
CreateFile
C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1\rocks\wsapi1円.3.4-1\samples\rings.lua
NAME NOT FOUND
CreateFile
C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1\rocks\wsapi1円.3.4-1\samples\socket\core.lua
PATH NOT FOUND
C:\Program Files\Lua5円.1\rocks\wsapi1円.3.4-1\samples\socket\core.lua
PATH NOT FOUND
==========
So using the above, I still have no idea what files/directories I need
to extract from the LuaForWindows/Rocks thingie to run Xavante.
Does someone know of a good Windows application that can completely
monitor what a program does?
Thank you.
