I've read the documentation for ppm. The reason I'm still
posting questions here is because I suspect that some of these
modules are ppm compatible and some are not. Perhaps I'm wrong?
If I am wrong and, in general ALL modules are ppm compatible -
then please tell me.
Since ppm can't find these modules in the standard ppm
repository then I suppose they're not there. If they haven't
been added to the ppm repository there must be a reason - right?
Perhaps because they're not ppm compatible? - which is why I'm
asking that question.
Anyway - you will have a rest from me for the weekend as I must
visit a sick relative.
PS: ppm compatible := ppm will install it if it has been
downloaded locally.

Well I've actually read quite a bit now, especially about ppm.
One of the weaknesses of the ppm docs is the lack of examples.
For instance, a good example of how to install a module that
can't be found in the ppm repository.
Thanks for your reply - I really do appreciate it. And the fact
that you're obviously short on patience is forgiven because - at
least you 've taken the time to reply.

Thanks, I deleted it from the repository.

Initially I was confused by the presence of two libraries:
C:\Perl\site\lib and C:\Perl\lib\
I was copying it to:
C:\Perl\site\lib
instead of:
C:\Perl\lib
as you do when having to guess what to do.
I try your command line:
C:\Perl\lib> perl -MWWW::Yahoo::Groups -e 1
Can't locate Crypt/SSLeay.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/lib
C:/Perl/site/lib .) at C:/Perl/lib/Net/SSL.pm line 16.
Likewise this gives:
C:\Perl\lib> perl -MNet::SSL -e 1
Can't locate Crypt/SSLeay.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/Perl/lib
C:/Perl/site/lib .) at C:/Perl/lib/Net/SSL.pm line 16.
So there is a dependency on Crypt-SSLeay. Oh dear I read in the
Crypt-SSLeay README that:
!!! NOTE for Win32 users, few people seem to be able to build
W Crypt::SSLeay successfully on that platform. You don't need
I to because ActiveState has already compiled it for you,
N and is available for their perl builds 618 & 522 as a ppm
3 install. It may also be available for their latest build.
2 For problems with this, please contact ActiveState.
!!! Please see http://www.activestate.com/
So it is already there !!!, if so where?, have they renamed it?
ppm> query SSLeay
ppm> query Crypt
both give:
No matches
I download 'Crypt-SSLeay-0.51', extract it and copy the lib files to:
C:\Perl\lib
But still I get the same problem:
Well I copied the contents of the lib directory of Crypt-SSLeay-0.51
over to: C:\Perl\lib but it just ain't working.
Line 16 of SSL.pm is:
require Crypt::SSLeay;
All 5 .pm files have been copied to:
C:\Perl\lib\Crypt\SSLeay
Conn.pm
CTX.pm
Err.pm
MainContext.pm
X509.pm
Naturally there is no "SSLeay.pm" to locate. There are only the 5
files mentioned above in the directory having the same name.
Is this a bug in the script I'm trying to run? This script is:
"yahoogroups.pl", with USERNAME and PASSWORD set to some group I'm a
member of. The script is taken from the O'Reilly book: "Spidering
Hacks", by Tara Calishain, Kevin Hemenway; ISBN : 0596005776; "Hack 44
Archiving Yahoo! Groups Messages with WWW::Yahoo::Groups"
- serves me right eh, for daring to use a book with the word "hacks"
in the title.

The reason there's no example of that in the ppm docs is simple - in that
case, you can't use ppm to install the module. The process of installing a
module "by hand" is not related to ppm at all, so it's not detailed in ppm's
docs. Instead, have a look at "perldoc perlmodinstall".
Also, you can't simply point ppm at a CPAN repository and hope it works. A
ppm repository contains modules in a pre-compiled binary format, while a CPAN
repository has tarballs of source code. They're entirely different animals,
and mutually incompatible.

It is easy to come up with stupid things by taking documentation out of
context. Are you making a game of doing so, or what?

And your point is?
This thread is not about the ordering of hash keys, it is about
the relative ordering of the return values from the keys() and values()
functions.
(Which clearly *are* guaranteed with regard to "the relative order
of keys to values" as asked by the OP.)

Probably advice.
This subject is off topic here, so you may want to ask this in a
different newsgroup. The question you want to ask yourself is, why are
you putting files on your web server if you don't want people to
download them?
If you are looking for a scheme that allows protected access to files,
ask this question in comp.infosystems.www.authoring.cgi or another
newsgroup where it is on topic.

Try to write $a='cq~moa'; instead of $a='apple';
This should work, yes sir, because the value of 'apple'|'banana' is
'cq~moa'.
But if I guess what you really want to do, try that :
if ($a eq 'apple' || $a eq 'banana') { etc }
And read some documentation, this is in the second chapter of any
introduction to perl. For complete information about the operators,
perldoc perlop.

To be accurate, that should be:

OK, it's official: my Perl compiler is enchanted. I'll not post the
whole program, since other people's environments can't reproduce the
problem anyway, but you'll see what I'm up against. Any ideas on where
to go from here would be most welcome.

So the parameters being supplied to the "sendit" subroutine are
identical at the hexadecimal level, yet one version works and the other
doesn't.
BTW it's not that the first successful invocation spoils it for all
subsequent invocations: I have versions which send successfully three or
more times, only to fail when the variable comes from the XML hash.
At least I can see the workround now - use "eval" to fill a temporary
variable. Nasty but seemingly effective. Maybe I should reinstall Perl
on the Linux machine but life's too short right now.

Subject: XML Parsing
Message-Id: <20050929135153.355$sK@newsreader.com>
I'm currently using XML::Parser to process some XML. I am wondering what
else is out there. A search of CPAN on 'XML' reveals that there is way
more out there than I can possible evaluate, but that most of it is not
general XML processing modules, but rather for very specific tasks which
just happen to involve XML.
I'd like to be familiar with the major alternatives to XML::Parser, without
having to read 3689 different perldoc pages to find those major
alternatives. So, what are your favorite Perl modules for general-purpose
XML processing?
Thanks,
Xho
