Is there a way to make variables LOCAL to a thread (not just a define)?

Dan / Kev, Can you mention which commands are thread safe and which are not?

UBotDev is right. I guess with so may browser crashes I just get use to multi-threading with http and skip the browser completely. 'in new browser' will allow you to view both pages at the same time. Before the new browser closes, just save the page to a variable OR use read file (agin into a variable) as mentioned.

Take a look here... http://wiki.ubotstudio.com/wiki/Thread Note, you need the Professional and Developer Edition to use THREADS

Sure. Process would be something like ... 1) Navigate to Google 2) In a new thread Goto Bing. Scrape what you need & save in a variable / lists / table. 3) Once the thread has finished... use the data you saved to do what ever you wish on the Google page

Yes, SHA1 is working fine. No issues right now. In emails I've had from the Amazon dev support team they have eluded to dropping SHA1 support in the future ... hence my post asking about SHA256.

I'm working mainly on Amazon MWS. This is the dev guide that discusses HMAC-SHA256 http://docs.developer.amazonservices.com/en_US/dev_guide/DG_ClientLibraries.html Does that help?

Will be picking this up. As a reference... Joao (RunSoftware) has built a number of bots for me over the last month. His code is very well structured, easy to understand and he is always willing to update the code and explain why things happen.

Hi Ayman, Any idea when you will be able to look into adding NameSpace support? Thanks.

Hi Kev, Did you get a chance to look at HMAC-SHA256?

Good stuff. Picking up the Smart Threads plugin now.

Hi Kev, Is it safe to use large lists and large tables in threads? I'm just about to convert a single threaded bot to multi-threaded and thought I'd ask before hitting any stumbling locks. While I'm at it... Do large lists / large tables work okay inside threads using your Smart Threads plugin?

As a little history.... I started using the Ubot browser but for some reason with this page, it acts so inconsistently. I think this is something to do with the javascript rendering. I will not bother going into details on this but it was the inconsistent nature of the page in ubot that got me thinking of using the http plugin. I was hoping to get the data through post/get requests and then workout how to 'plug' the data back into the webpage to see the charts rendered. It's the last step that really got me stuck. Anyway, yes I totally agree that the http plugin is great for getting the da

Hi Dan, Sorry for not being clear on my question. A Post request returns data fine but the main issue I have is... the data is just some 'data' that the existing webpage processes via javascript. Once the page updates it then makes the CALCULATE button available that generates another post request that brings back more data that is again used by javascript. So my query is... how can I get the http requests trigger the page update using the json data that allows the Calculate button to become active. Here is a video that I hope explains it a little better: http://screencast.com/t/LpMwZ8

Hi Dan, I've been looking at using the http plugin with this is https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/fba/revenue-calculator/index.html/ref=xx_xx_cont_xx?ie=UTF8&lang=en_US From the quote above it looks like this site falls into 'could be tricky' category. It's easy to create a Post request with the 2 parameters (fiddler show METHOD & MODEL) required for the ASIN/PRODUCT search but as this search is controlled via javascript the results returned are not a webpage but son data instead. See image in the link below. http://screencast.com/t/z4US7yXOwrl1 Do you have any pointers to

I'm a tad confused with the current state of play with multi threading in v5.5. Has anyone done some serious testing with 5.5? Care to share your findings? Are variables, lists and tables now thread-safe?

That great to hear Dan. I'm looking forward to it's release.

Nice one Dan. I see you using UB v5 too nice.

Thanks Kev. I'd appreciate that.

Hi Kev, Do you have an HMAC-SHA256 version? My guess is no, but though I'd ask on the off chance. Cheers.

I have a few people helping me out right now so I don't need anyone else at the moment. Will definitely need some more in a few weeks though so I'll post on this thread then. Thanks.

Did you find anything when testing namespace's Aymen? I've tested a few api feeds from Amazon and get the same issue.

I have too much work on so need an experienced UBOT Developer to help out with a few projects. First project.... Spider/Scraper to get data from walmart to save to a CSV file. Pretty Easy. Input: Category to spider/scrape Output: CSV file containing: Product Name, URL, Price, UPC, Avg Rating, # Review Make it multi-threaded and fast. No fancy UI needed. Just produce the code that works (not compiled). Skype me: pete_m1 to discuss.

Not sure is this is a bug Aymen. A bit of trial and error with the XML file shows that the plugin doesn't like the defined default namespace on the 2nd line... <?xml version="1.0"?> <GetMatchingProductResponse xmlns="http://mws.amazonservices.com/schema/Products/2011-10-01"> <GetMatchingProductResult ASIN="B00DY1WVNQ" status="Success"> <Product> <Identifiers> <MarketplaceASIN> <MarketplaceId>ATVPDKIKX0DER</MarketplaceId> <ASIN>B00DY1WVNQ</ASIN> </MarketplaceASI

Thanks for taking a look Aymen. Does the XML NODES VALUES bring back data for you? When I run it I get nothing. http://screencast.com/t/vKDVIW1Ls5tj set(#xml doc, $read file("C:\\Users\\Pete\\Desktop\\ubot.xml"), "Global") set(#nodes, $plugin function("xml plugin.dll", "$xml nodes values", #xml doc, "//SalesRank/Rank", "InnerText"), "Global") add list to list(%qwe, $plugin function("xml plugin.dll", "$xml nodes values", #xml doc, "//SalesRank/Rank", "InnerText"), "Delete", "Global")
