Thank you as well and its great to see you kicking again. If I may ask, why not just update zstd inside xtool and make another separate one?

because xtool is in a horrible state currently, a lot of months passed and I just decided to open the source recently and it didn't seem like I was the one who the WTF code it contains :D

So I decided start smaller projects to see how those fare in what I plan to do in future.

I know this feeling. Coded my own "Total Commander" in Borland C++ years ago and later decided to revisit. My code is actually extremely clean and ordered(others who saw it said as well), yet I gave up as it would take too much effort/time to digest it again.

I suspect this have to do with object oriented languages once they grow in size, never had such problem with C projects and even reading others work (like before mentioned LZ4 or plzip which I forked to xnlz) was such a breeze. Yet I could never properly digest C++ code not only from others, but even my own - well organized. And I used to be really good at C++ once before(before I forgot most of that crap) including complete STL knowledge, all kind of tricks etc..

Really, just drop that crap called "delphi pascal" and try plain C instead ;). I am almost certain you will not regret it + you will gain speed as well and besides, most of your tools are command line without GUI anyway :o.

Thank you Razor, btw here it doesn't pump(pre-compress) the files of the folders: 920560, 920561, 920562, 920563, 920564, 920567, 920568, 920569, 920570. Is the normal ? Btw it works with re_chunk_000.pak (22.1GB).

Thanks Razor!

BTW:
im used taskkill for zstdrec.exe

Code:

function IsProcessRunning(FileName: String): Boolean;

var

  objSWbemLocator, objSWbemServices: Variant;

begin

  try

    objSWbemLocator:= CreateOleObject('WbemScripting.SWbemLocator');

  except

    ShowExceptionMessage;

    Exit;

  end;

  objSWbemServices:= objSWbemLocator.ConnectServer();

  objSWbemServices.Security_.ImpersonationLevel := 3;

  Result := (objSWbemServices.ExecQuery('SELECT * FROM Win32_Process WHERE Name="' + FileName + '"').Count > 0);

end;

Cancel Button or ISDoneError

Code:

var

#ifdef zstdrec

  ResC: Integer;

#endif  

begin

------  

    #ifdef zstdrec

      if IsProcessRunning('zstdrec.exe') then

       Exec(ExpandConstant('{sys}\taskkill.exe'), ' /F /IM zstdrec.exe', '', SW_HIDE, ewWaitUntilTerminated, ResC);

    #endif

end;
