+[8.50pb1] RAR 5.x unpacker issues (depends on DLL version)

Post by *MaxX »

1. Internal TC's unrar.dll and unrar64.dll (v.5.0.2) kills TC if you try to open any rar5 archive. Just normal "access violation" system messages shown.

2. Samlab's newer unrarl.dll version (5.0.7) does not kill TC but reads ALL THE ARCHIVE FILE BEFORE showing it's content. (I've noticed this on my 13GB archive (40GB inside rar file) - TC had read it all!)

3. If ANY rar 5.x archive has *.rar5 or *.wr5 extension it is shown as empty and no read is done.

Tested on: TC 8.50 pb1 + official UNRAR.DLL @ Win7 x64 SP1 Prof.

p.s.
I've been already using RAR5 connected to TC via multiarc plugin in another TC pack (on this and another PC all the time) and there were NO such problems with rar5 files.
All the *.rar5 and *.wr5 files are shown properly and rar(5.0).exe does not read so much as unrar.dll does.

1. Could not reproduce - however, my RAR5 files are as old as the included DLL, so I guess that the RAR author changed something in the RAR format in the meantime. I will include the new dlls.

2. Confirmed, I was opening the archives for unpacking instead of using the "list only" flag.

3. I didn't know that these are valid extensions. I will try to support them (but not show the package icon).

TC 8.50 pb2 + official UnRAR.dll 5.0 final = Works fine.

Is it really the official unrar.dll 5.0? Unrar 5 final was released only today, but the dll is still from 22. August.

Not shure the file's date is correct, but it looks like final.
It was 5.0.8 before, now it is 5.0.0.
Let's wait some days to see...
