I am having the hardest time finding information on the web so maybe
someone could help. I have a perl CGI script accepting data from a
form, this part is easy. But then, depending on the data from the
form I need to call a C++ program and pass the data I just received to
this c++ program. Then my C++ program will output results to a txt
file. Then I use XML to get the output file formatted.
now, I am stuck in the step how to call the c++ program and pass the
data to the c++ program.
I've found a lot of different references, but none have helped. If you
have any input it would be appreciated.

First question: why do you need Perl at all? Why not write your CGI
program in C++?

Dozens of different methods, depending on how you want to do it. Perl pretty
much supports all the standard interprocess communication methods from
signals and parameters to pipes, sockets, and and and. You name it, Perl got
it.

Hi, I'm just developing a small script that communicates with a small
piece of hw. The hw switches between modes when you press Control-6.
How can I send that from Net::Telnet? I suppose that the ->put($value)
is the most suitable since it doesn't add a "\n" at the end, but what
is the $value I have to put there? AFAIK control-6 is not one of the
ASCII escape sequences, is it?

Hi everyone
I want to install Crypt::DES module for my Net::SNMP::Security::USM. I
am using ActiveState Komodo version 3.5. I tried the following things.
I typed :
"ppm install Crypt::DES" in run command.
I got this error:
Installing package 'Crypt-DES'...

Then i google and find some information on

I tried to add new repository:
rep add Canada
http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/cgi-bin/ppmserver?urn:/PPMServer58
I got error again:
'rep' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Then i find this page

I tried :
set repository ActivePerl http://www.activestate.com/PPMPackages/5.005/
Still dont work
Then i downloaded Crypt-DES-2.05.tar.gz from cpan. untar it and run
perl Makefile.pl. Now, i cant run "make" because i am using windows.
1. perl Makefile.PL
2. make
3. make test
4. make install
I tried but could not able to install Crypt::DES on ActiveState. If
anyone knows how to do this please let me know. Thanks in advance.

I would always recommend the latest and greatest, unless the're a
very good reason not to use it.
So far, the only advantage I've found to using the 5.6.1 version is
that some modules are available in ActiveState's 5.6 ppm that are not
available yet in the 5.8 ppm repository.
However, this is fairly rare, and the more time passes, the more the
5.8 repositories will get updated, making such an issue less and less
likely. (And presumably making the opposite scenario (where a module
is available in 5.8 but not in 5.6) more likely.)
So if it's between 5.6.1 and 5.8.8, my advice is to use 5.8.8.

Great idea, but I'm not sure that these tags will always be in the same
order. (i.e. <div><font><span>). I used this HTML::TreeBuilder class
to remove empty tags, which is a solid alternative to what you wrote
above. But I still can't remove these tags outright, just because they
might be important depending on the spacing properties of these mystery
styles. I did some research this morning on the Microsoft CSS class,
MsoNormal, which if the newsgroups are correct, is supposed to make a
newline meaningless. So i guess the real trick it to remove all
MsoNormal tags, then do what you did above with the -> <br>.
Thanks!

Message-Id: <1150726952.193534.254320@g10g2000cwb.googlegroups.com>
Hi All,
Once i have the 1st main table as input i read the table and store it
in a hash with keys and values
"TEST1-TEST2" => 1
"TEST1-TEST3" => 0
1 for Y in the main table and 0 for N in the main table.
I also have a 2nd hash with same keys but values will be initialized to
zeros.
Then i will read the 2nd file with transitions, store it in an array
and for each element compare with the 1st hash. If the transition
exists then increment the value of 2nd hash pertaining to that key.
Once i have all the keys and values, i will print using the part of
code shown before. But now i am trying to print it in table format
instead of just printing like hash.
Thanks for the help.

The usual way to print on Unix systems is to open a pipe to lpr(1) or
lp(1) (depending on which you have). Read the manual to find out what
data formats they accept: commonly, you must convert your output to
PostScript. You can do this with the program a2ps (among others); this
will convert a form-feed ("\cL") into a new page.

Message-Id: <1150725839.444863.139630@f6g2000cwb.googlegroups.com>
Hello netties,
I cat a file (actually grepping some particular lines) to "perl -na -e"
and have to determine when I have read the last line of the content of
the file (which is actually "filtered" by grep already, so that I
cannot give perl the whole file as a command line argument).
Does somebody know how I detect the last line piped to perl? eof()
obviously does not work.

You could make a one-liner file that contains an end of file text line
that will be filtered in by grep, (untested)
echo 'grepstring ENDOFFILE' > endoffile
grep grepstring file1 file2 endoffile | \
perl -na -e 'if (/ENDOFFILE/) { eof stuff} {non eof stuff}'
However, since perl is a better grepper than grep,
my prefered solution is to include
the functionality of grep in the perl one-liner.
To detect the end of each of multiple files, use if (eof)
as listed in perldoc -f eof, but note that the eof test
has to be the first thing in the loop.
The following one-liner (with escaped \n between lines)
was tested using the entire text
of this post as the contents of file ex1
Note that I did not reset the count between files inside the eof block.
perl -na -e 'if (eof) {print STDERR "** eof $ARGV has $count\n"} \
next unless /grepstring/; ++$count; ' ex1 ex1
** eof ex1 has 3
** eof ex1 has 6

Why not do the grep in Perl? or just pass the stream through "last" before
going into Perl?

That is not obvious to me.
This does what I thought it would:
cat foo.pl | perl -lne 'print eof()? "last line: $_":$_'
It prints out all of foo.pl, with "last line: " preprended to the last
line.

Er, "tail", not "last".
