/*
    A basic memory class by RHCP:
    This is a wrapper for commonly used read and write memory functions.
    It also contains a variety of pattern scan functions.
    This class allows scripts to read/write integers and strings of various types. 
    Pointer addresses can easily be read/written by passing the base address and offsets to the various read/write functions.
    
    Process handles are kept open between reads. This increases speed.
    However, if a program closes/restarts then the process handle will become invalid
    and you will need to re-open another handle (blank/destroy the object and recreate it)
    isHandleValid() can be used to check if a handle is still active/valid.
    read(), readString(), write(), and writeString() can be used to read and write memory addresses respectively.
    readRaw() can be used to dump large chunks of memory, this is considerably faster when
    reading data from a large structure compared to repeated calls to read(). 
    For example, reading a single UInt takes approximately the same amount of time as reading 1000 bytes via readRaw().
    Although, most people wouldn't notice the performance difference. This does however require you 
    to retrieve the values using AHK's numget()/strGet() from the dumped memory.
    In a similar fashion writeRaw() allows a buffer to be be written in a single operation. 
    
    When the new operator is used this class returns an object which can be used to read that process's 
    memory space.To read another process simply create another object.
    Process handles are automatically closed when the script exits/restarts or when you free the object.
    **Notes:
        This was initially written for 32 bit target processes, however the various read/write functions
        should now completely support pointers in 64 bit target applications. The only caveat is that the AHK exe must also be 64 bit.  
        If AHK is 32 bit and the target application is 64 bit you can still read, write, and use pointers, so long as the addresses
        fit inside a 4 byte pointer, i.e. The maximum address is limited to the 32 bit range.
        The various pattern scan functions are intended to be used on 32 bit target applications, however: 
            - A 32 bit AHK script can perform pattern scans on a 32 bit target application.
            - A 32 bit AHK script may be able to perform pattern scans on a 64 bit process, providing the addresses fall within the 32 bit range.             
            - A 64 bit AHK script should be able to perform pattern scans on a 32 or 64 bit target application without issue. 
        If the target process has admin privileges, then the AHK script will also require admin privileges. 
        AHK doesn't support unsigned 64bit ints, you can however read them as Int64 and interpret negative values as large numbers.       
  
    Commonly used methods:
        read()
        readString()
        readRaw()
        write()
        writeString()
        writeBytes()
        writeRaw()
        isHandleValid() 
        getModuleBaseAddress()
    Less commonly used methods:
        getProcessBaseAddress()
        hexStringToPattern()
        stringToPattern()    
        modulePatternScan()
        processPatternScan()

    Usage:
        ; **Note: If you wish to try this calc example, consider using the 32 bit version of calc.exe - 
        ;         which is in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\calc.exe on win7 64 bit systems.
        ; The contents of this file can be copied directly into your script. Alternately, you can copy the classMemory.ahk file into your library folder,
        ; in which case you will need to use the #include directive in your script i.e. 
            #Include <classMemory>
        
        ; You can use this code to check if you have installed the class correctly.
            if (_ClassMemory.__Class != "_ClassMemory")
            {
                msgbox class memory not correctly installed. Or the (global class) variable "_ClassMemory" has been overwritten
                ExitApp
            }
        ; Open a process with sufficient access to read and write memory addresses (this is required before you can use the other functions)
        ; You only need to do this once. But if the process closes/restarts, then you will need to perform this step again. Refer to the notes section below.
        ; Also, if the target process is running as admin, then the script will also require admin rights!
        ; Note: The program identifier can be any AHK windowTitle i.e.ahk_exe, ahk_class, ahk_pid, or simply the window title.
        ; hProcessCopy is an optional variable in which the opened handled is stored. 
          
            calc := new _ClassMemory("ahk_exe calc.exe", "", hProcessCopy) 
       
        ; Check if the above method was successful.

        ; When using the new operator this property is automatically set to the result of getModuleBaseAddress() or getProcessBaseAddress();
        ; the specific method used depends on the bitness of the target application and AHK.

            value := calc.read(0x0016CB60, "UInt")
        ; Read a pointer with offsets 0x20 and 0x15C which points to a UChar. 
            value := calc.read(pointerBase, "UChar", 0x20, 0x15C)
        ; Note: read(), readString(), readRaw(), write(), writeString(), and writeRaw() all support pointers/offsets.
        ; An array of pointers can be passed directly, i.e.
            arrayPointerOffsets := [0x20, 0x15C]
            value := calc.read(pointerBase, "UChar", arrayPointerOffsets*)
        ; Or they can be entered manually.
            value := calc.read(pointerBase, "UChar", 0x20, 0x15C)
        ; You can also pass all the parameters directly, i.e.
            aMyPointer := [pointerBase, "UChar", 0x20, 0x15C]
            value := calc.read(aMyPointer*)
        
        ; Read a utf-16 null terminated string of unknown size at address 0x1234556 - the function will read until the null terminator is found or something goes wrong.

        ; Read a utf-8 encoded string which is 12 bytes long at address 0x1234556.
            string := calc.readString(0x1234556, 12)

        ; The nullterminator property can be used to change this.
            _ClassMemory.insertNullTerminator := False ; This will change the property for all processes
            calc.insertNullTerminator := False ; Changes the property for just this process     
    Notes: 
        If the target process exits and then starts again (or restarts) you will need to free the derived object and then use the new operator to create a new object i.e. 
        calc := [] ; or calc := "" ; free the object. This is actually optional if using the line below, as the line below would free the previous derived object calc prior to initialising the new copy.
        calc := new _ClassMemory("ahk_exe calc.exe") ; Create a new derived object to read calc's memory.
        isHandleValid() can be used to check if a target process has closed or restarted.

    ;                   the base address of the pointer.
    ;       type    -   The integer type. 
    ;                   Valid types are UChar, Char, UShort, Short, UInt, Int, Float, Int64 and Double. 
    ;                   Note: Types must not contain spaces i.e. " UInt" or "UInt " will not work. 
    ;                   When an invalid type is passed the method returns NULL and sets ErrorLevel to -2

    ; Method:   readRaw(address, byRef buffer, bytes := 4, aOffsets*)
    ;           Reads an area of the processes memory and stores it in the buffer variable
    ; Parameters:
    ;       address  -  The memory address of the area to read or if using the offsets parameter
    ;                   the base address of the pointer which points to the memory region.
    ;       buffer   -  The unquoted variable name for the buffer. This variable will receive the contents from the address space.
    ;                   This method calls varsetCapcity() to ensure the variable has an adequate size to perform the operation. 
    ;                   If the variable already has a larger capacity (from a previous call to varsetcapcity()), then it will not be shrunk. 
    ;                   Therefore it is the callers responsibility to ensure that any subsequent actions performed on the buffer variable
    ;                   do not exceed the bytes which have been read - as these remaining bytes could contain anything.
    ;       bytes   -   The number of bytes to be read.          
    ;       aOffsets* - A variadic list of offsets. When using offsets the address parameter should equal the base address of the pointer.
    ;                   The address (base address) and offsets should point to the memory address which is to be read
    ; Return Values:
    ;       Non Zero -   Indicates success.
    ;       Zero     -   Indicates failure. Check errorLevel and A_LastError for more information
    ; 
    ; Notes:            The contents of the buffer may then be retrieved using AHK's NumGet() and StrGet() functions.           
    ;                   This method offers significant (~30% and up) performance boost when reading large areas of memory. 
    ;                   As calling ReadProcessMemory for four bytes takes a similar amount of time as it does for 1,000 bytes.

    ; Method:   readString(address, sizeBytes := 0, encoding := "utf-8", aOffsets*)

    ;                   the base address of the pointer.
    ;       sizeBytes - The size (in bytes) of the string to be read.
    ;                   If zero is passed, then the function will read each character until a null terminator is found
    ;                   and then returns the entire string.
    ;       encoding -  This refers to how the string is stored in the program's memory.
    ;                   UTF-8 and UTF-16 are common. Refer to the AHK manual for other encoding types.
    ;       aOffsets* - A variadic list of offsets. When using offsets the address parameter should equal the base address of the pointer.
    ;                   The address (base address) and offsets should point to the memory address which holds the string.                             
    ;                   
    ;  Return Values:
    ;       String -    On failure an empty (null) string is always returned. Since it's possible for the actual string 
    ;                   being read to be null (empty), then a null return value should not be used to determine failure of the method.
    ;                   Instead the property [derivedObject].ReadStringLastError can be used to check for success/failure.
    ;                   This property is set to 0 on success and 1 on failure. On failure ErrorLevel and A_LastError should be consulted
    ;                   for more information.
    ; Notes:
    ;       For best performance use the sizeBytes parameter to specify the exact size of the string. 
    ;       If the exact size is not known and the string is null terminated, then specifying the maximum
    ;       possible size of the string will yield the same performance.  
    ;       If neither the actual or maximum size is known and the string is null terminated, then specifying
    ;       zero for the sizeBytes parameter is fine. Generally speaking for all intents and purposes the performance difference is
    ;       inconsequential.

    ;                       looking to eliminate the overhead overhead associated with reading pointers which only change 
    ;                       on startup or map/level change. In other words you can cache the final address and
    ;                       read from this address directly.
    ; Parameters:
    ;   address             The base address of the pointer.
    ;   aOffsets*           A variadic list of offsets used to calculate the pointers final address.
    ;                       At least one offset must be present.
    ; Return Values:    
    ;   Positive integer    The final memory address pointed to by the pointer.
    ;   Negative integer    Failure
    ;   Null                Failure
    ; Note:                 If the target application is 64bit the pointers are read as an 8 byte Int64 (this.PtrType)

    getAddressFromOffsets(address, aOffsets*)
    {
        return  aOffsets.Remove() + this.pointer(address, this.ptrType, aOffsets*) ; remove the highest key so can use pointer() to find final memory address (minus the last offset)       
    }

    ; Interesting note:
    ; Although handles are 64-bit pointers, only the less significant 32 bits are employed in them for the purpose 
    ; of better compatibility (for example, to enable 32-bit and 64-bit processes interact with each other)
    ; Here are examples of such types: HANDLE, HWND, HMENU, HPALETTE, HBITMAP, etc.

    ; Method:   getProcessBaseAddress(WindowTitle, windowMatchMode := 3)
    ;           Returns the base address of a process. In most cases this will provide the same result as calling getModuleBaseAddress() (when passing 
    ;           a null value as the module parameter), however getProcessBaseAddress() will usually work regardless of the bitness
    ;           of both the AHK exe and the target process.
    ;           *This method relies on the target process having a window and will not work for console apps*

    ; Parameters:

    ;                       ahk_exe, ahk_class, ahk_pid, or simply the window title. e.g. "ahk_exe calc.exe" or "Calculator".
    ;                       It's safer not to use the window title, as some things can have the same window title e.g. an open folder called "Starcraft II"
    ;                       would have the same window title as the game itself.
    ;   windowMatchMode     Determines the matching mode used when finding the program's window (windowTitle).
    ;                       The default value is 3 i.e. an exact match. The current matchmode will be used if the parameter is null or 0.
    ;                       Refer to AHK's setTitleMathMode for more information.
    ; Return Values:
    ;   Positive integer    The base address of the process (success).
    ;   Null                The process's window couldn't be found.
    ;   0                   The GetWindowLong or GetWindowLongPtr call failed. Try getModuleBaseAddress() instead.

    ; Method: suspend() / resume()
    ; Notes:
    ;   These are undocumented Windows functions which suspend and resume the process. Here be dragons.
    ;   The process handle must have PROCESS_SUSPEND_RESUME access rights. 
    ;   That is, you must specify this when using the new operator, as it is not included. 
    ;   Some people say it requires more rights and just use PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS, however PROCESS_SUSPEND_RESUME has worked for me.
    ;   Suspending a process manually can be quite helpful when reversing memory addresses and pointers, although it's not at all required. 
    ;   As an unorthodox example, memory addresses holding pointers are often stored in a slightly obfuscated manner i.e. they require bit operations to calculate their
    ;   true stored value (address). This obfuscation can prevent Cheat Engine from finding the true origin of a pointer or links to other memory regions. If there 
    ;   are no static addresses between the obfuscated address and the final destination address then CE wont find anything (there are ways around this in CE). One way around this is to
    ;   suspend the process, write the true/deobfuscated value to the address and then perform your scans. Afterwards write back the original values and resume the process.

    ; The msdn documentation is unclear, and suggests that a debugger can pass either structure - perhaps there is some other step involved.
    ; My tests seem to indicate that you must pass _MEMORY_BASIC_INFORMATION i.e. structure is relative to the AHK script bitness.
    ; Another post on the net also agrees with my results. 

    ; Notes: 
    ; A 64 bit AHK script can call this on a target 64 bit process. Issues may arise at extremely high memory addresses as AHK does not support UInt64 (but these addresses should never be used anyway).
    ; A 64 bit AHK can call this on a 32 bit target and it should work. 
    ; A 32 bit AHk script can call this on a 64 bit target and it should work providing the addresses fall inside the 32 bit range.
