Subject: Accessing a C array in Perl
Message-Id: <8p3gjj$7aa$1@gxsn.com>

    Hi Perl experts!

I am new to Perl and I m having problems interfacing Perl to C. Perl can
call a C function, and can get back a return value which is the address of a
C array. ( i.e. a pointer ). I understand that Perl does not have pointers,
so how can I take this pointer and access each byte sequentially in Perl?
The array is up to 600 bytes long.

$result  = call_C_function;
$first = ???( $result );
$second = ???( $result + 1 ); etc

In C it would be :
char * ptr;
char first;
char second;

ptr = (char*)result;
first = *result;
result++;
second = *result;   etc

Sorry to put C onto a Perl newsgroup, but I am really stuck!

Thanks

Howerd Oakford

How can I perlcc and include my Net::FTP etc.  Modules???

This is the only sticking point.  I Love perl but if I cannot include

To all,

I have to give a copy of my website on a CD to my boss by tomorrow. This
website will be copied to his hard drive and then run as a demo.

The problem:
The web pages are created dynamically using Perl, and I can't get
ActivePerl running on his Win98 Box for the life of me.

I have associated .cgi with the Perl5.exe, but I get one of two errors:
Error 403.1: Execute acess forbidden
or
I am asked to download the CGI file.

PWS has multiple website running. 
/inetpub/intranet and /inetpub/internet
How do I confgure the /cgi-bin directory in the internet site to run
Perl scripts?

Thanks

Figured it out... Kind of.

Now I am having Perl problems, not webserver problems.

Why would a Perl script work under NT running IIS and Perl 5, but not
under Win98 PWS4.0 running Perl 5?
I am getting errors that say the CGI application are not returning a
complete set of HTTP headers.

Thanks

There are a few:

Then I'm not sure what's wrong ... Does compiling something
other than perl with the dmake/VC++ combination work? Are the
environment variables contained in VC++'s vcvars32.bat set
correctly? In compiling perl, are there any warnings prior to 
the fatal error?

I work with Win98 as well, yet nmake worked fine for me in
compiling perl.

If you are talking about just retrieving it when using perl with a
webserver, just do the following:

$ipstring = $ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'};

That'll do it.

You only have one IP address?  I have three, if you count 127.0.0.1.

gethostbyname() will not always work because the hostname does not
always appear in DNS or another nameservice.  For example, with DHCP,
you are often given an IP address but no hostname.

Often, you'll find that you don't actually need the IP address.  If
you're writing a networked application, just leave it blank (or zero),
and the system will fill it in for you as necessary.

Yes,  I want to retrieve it when using a Perl script as a CGI, but I'm
looking for the WSeb server's IP addr.  I thought REMOTE_ADDR was the
client's addr?

Try
$ascii_address  = inet_ntoa($packed_address);
$packed_address is what is returned by gethostbyname.

Good point about the multiple addresses.   In this case, I *do* need the
address in order to send it to a client that doesn't have DNS (the client is
a device with an imbedded browser ... I'm sending a URL that points back to
me to it).

I started down the "gethostname" path since I have the SERVER_NAME
environment variable set by the http daemon when my Script is launched.

Well, I eventually discovered that the reason for my problems was that
pipe() sets the close-on-exec flag of both handles that it returns, and
that for my forked PGP process to be able to access my pipe I need to reset
that flag:

use Fcntl;
fcntl(READ, F_SETFD, 0) or die "Can't fcntl: $!\n";

While I'm glad to have resolved my issue, I must say that I'm somewhat
peeved that I need to do extra work in Perl to accomplish what C--and even
Python, for crying out loud!--seem to get right by default.  Does anyone
know the reason why pipe() (and open() too, for that matter) set the
close-on-exec flag, anyway?  And how am I supposed to determine at run-time
whether the fcntl call is needed?

Another option is Net::Telnet. You can either slurp the
remote file into memory all at once or set the remote
terminal to raw mode and get a block at a time. There're
examples of both in the docs.

Administrivia:

The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc.  For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:

	subscribe perl-users
or:
	unsubscribe perl-users

to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.  

| NOTE: The mail to news gateway, and thus the ability to submit articles
| through this service to the newsgroup, has been removed. I do not have
| time to individually vet each article to make sure that someone isn't
| abusing the service, and I no longer have any desire to waste my time
| dealing with the campus admins when some fool complains to them about an
| article that has come through the gateway instead of complaining
| to the source.

To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.

To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.

For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
