Subject: noob: Trying perl, and decoding MIME attachments..stuck in my code..can someone take a look?
Message-Id: <2deb3d1.0405250820.5dd55c03@posting.google.com>
Hello all,
I'm trying to learn Perl, and do something fairly difficult at the
same time for work. I'm trying to use the MIME tools modules...and
the examples there on the docs are kinda sparse...and I'm confused how
to decode things to a directory on my harddrive.
At this point, just to learn how it works...I'm sending the perl
script a simple email with text message...and one .jpg image that is
encoded in base64. I'm trying to write these out to a spot on my
harddrive. I'm posting just the part where it is looping through the
mime message, and trying to split off the plain text part (which does
work), but, blows up on messages with a base64 attachment.
Code snippet:
foreach $part ($entity->parts_DFS) {
$head = MIME::Head->new;
$head = $part->head;
$rec_filename = $head->recommended_filename;
$encode_type = $head->get('Content-Transfer-Encoding',0);
$encode_type =~ tr/A-Z/a-z/;
$encode_type =~ s/\s+$//;
my $mimetype = $part->mime_type();
if ($mimetype eq 'text/plain'){
$msg_body = $part->as_string;
$filename = $subject;
open (outfile,">$dir_path/$dir_name/$filename");
print outfile "$msg_body\n";
close (outfile);
} else {
$msg_body = new MIME::Decoder 'base64' or die 'unsupported';
$filename = $rec_filename;
open (outfile,">$dir_path/$dir_name/$filename");
$msg_body->decode ($part,outfile);
close (outfile);
}
I'm using :
use MIME::Parser;
use MIME::Head;
use MIME::Body;
use MIME::Decoder;
And the dir_path, dir_name are all being set correctly earlier in the
code..but, I'm having difficulty in decoding the attachment to the
disk...
Can someone give me an example or describe what I'm doing wrong
here...? I think it is the output part writing out the base64
part...but, I'm not sure what is wrong here...all the examples I've
seen are going to STDOUT rather than to a file on the harddrive...
Oh, one last thing probably important I'm doing this all in 'core'
which I am guessing means just all in memory rather that a temp spot
on the disk:
$parser->output_to_core(1);
Thanks in advance for any advice, pointers, links...

You should always declare all variables as lexically scoped in the
smallest applicable lexical scope unless you have a positive is a
reason to do otherwise. BTW: this is not perculliar to Perl, it
applies in all programming languges - allowing that a languge not
having lexical variables is a positive reason :-).
For Perl this means that most of the time the declaration should be
combined with the first assignment. BTW: this to is not perculliar to
Perl, it also applies in other programming languges where assignment
and declaration can be combined.
By following this convention you will be able to get maximum beniefit
out of putting "use strict" at the top of all your scripts.
Try to get into this habit now, do not wait for your failure to do so
to cause you the unecessary distress of wasting your own time and that
of other people. The longer you leave it the harder you will find it
to adjust. Worse still, if you leave it too long you may never adjust
and may mutate into a bitter and twisted troll.
The "use warnings" pragma can also be a lot of help when programming in Perl.

Is it failing? If so what error code is it returning when it fails?

You should always try to reduce your problem to a minimal but complete
script.

I'm sure it doesn't blow up. It probably fails in some way.

After having this suggestion seconded by Tels, I found v. 1.68 here
http://backpan.cpan.org/authors/id/T/TE/TELS/math/
Thanks Rob for pointing out such an easy workaround. Someone was saying

You've to decode the sniffed packets. Try using NetPacket::*
modules.

Try the following code:
sub process_pkt {
my($user_data, $hdr, $pkt) = @_;
my $ip = NetPacket::IP->decode(eth_strip($pkt));
my $tcp = NetPacket::TCP->decode($ip->{'data'});
print "$ip->{'src_ip'}:$tcp->{'src_port'} --> \
$ip->{'dest_ip'}:$tcp->{'dest_port'}\n";
print "$tcp->{'data'}\n\n";
}
Be away of non-printable characters they could crash your
terminal, maybe convert them to hex using Data::Hexdumper
or similar modules.

I agree PHP should be compared to mod_perl. Didn't you read my
original post in this thread? However, choosing between Perl/CGI vs
PHP obviously PHP is more performance driven due to the speed.

Others have addressed how to do this in Perl but I'm not sure that
anyone has pointed out (the non-Perl issue) that unless you expect the
child procesess to be waiting on non-local resources this is probably
not a sensible thing to be doing.

Whenever you have a Perl question that translates to "has anyone else ever
wanted to do this?", the place to start is search.cpan.org. In this
case, a search for WMI turned up:

My first stop was CPAN and when I did not find the kind of
solution I am searching for I tried this newsgroup. I asked
for something like telnet that I can touch a windows box
to find its health. The CPAN solutions require Win32::OLE.
I am searching for a protocol. The module Net::FTP implements
the protocol directly, not calling the ftp(1) client. Is
there a module that implements the WMI protocol?

The segfault is definitely a perl bug: upgrade to the latest 5.8.x.
You would also be much better off marking the encoding of your files if
it's not ASCII:
#!/usr/bin/perl -Mopen=IO,:encoding(iso8859-1) -n
s/[^a-z]//g;

The OP's subject was:

Cookies have nothing to do with sessions, other than the fact that you can
use cookies to obtain session-like states across the HTTP protocol.

This *is* a Perl question.
"Is session mgt possible without cookies" is not a Perl question.
The answer would be the same regardless of the language
chosen for its implementation.

No you didn't.
You asked, in your characteristic sloppy English:
Is there anyways I can implement a password protected members area
with perhaps a persistent session without the use of cookies?
The question was about HTTP, not about any programming language.
