Message-Id: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0607021603020.25259@ccc2003>
Hi!
I have this one machine that I help maintain remotely have its
perl 5.8.0 exhibit peculiar behaviour: the pattern [^\s]+ will
not match anything.
Observe this example:
$ cat bug.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
while(<>) {
print "You type:".$_;
if(/([^\s]+)/) {
print "[$1] (".length($1).")\n";
}
else {
print "NONE\n";
}
}
$ echo foo bar | ./bug.pl
You type:foo bar
NONE
$
As comparison, I copied that small program to different systems,
one running newer (v5.8.5) and others run older (v5.6.1) perl.
The result in these systems are different with the first system:
$ echo foo bar | ./bug.pl
You type:foo bar
[foo] (3)
$
Any idea what happen?
Note that this example is a result of problem narrowing. I
obviously need the [^\s]+ for more complex regex, something like
[^\s\<\@]+
I tried reinstall linux from fresh rpm in the first system, but
the result stand. Then I updated to the one from Fedora Legacy
project, but it make no difference.
I have no comparable system either the distribution version nor
the perl version, so I cannot say for sure what is wrong here.

Actually I will need other character in that brackets, e.g.
[^\s\<\@]+ something like that. Can you tell me how your

Version 5.8.0 has known bugs. Upgrade. The problem does not
show up in version 5.8.3 or later.

Very quick question this time. How to do a 'print "\a";' still produces
a beep when script is in taint mode. It works fine without -T, but
nothing in speaker when I'm back to taint mode. If it has some
importance, this test has been done using ActivePerl 5.8.8.817 under Win
2K. What's the trick ?

How are you running your tests? Perl doesn't actually beep; 'print "\a";'
simply sends an ASCII control character to stdout. It's up to whatever's
collecting your script's output to decide how to respond to that character.
Quite a few terminals, for instance, have an option to invert the display
colors briefly instead of (or in addition to) beeping, for the hearing-
impaired.
So, are you running both tests in the same shell? Or does the silent one
happen to be running under something that's not likely to beep in response
to a "\a", such as a web server?

We don't do your homework for you. However, if you need help along the
way, the best way to get is to first read the posting guidelines for
this group, then come up with your best attempt, and post it here in
accordance with the posting guidelines.
Otherwise, you'll get killfiled by a lot of people.

Do you think that someone who teaches Perl classes might read the

Does your professor approve of having someone else solve your

To summarise,
the most useful information so far is the link to Wikipedia's page on
"frameworks", which I have just updated with a link to the Mono
project.
Concerning the linguistic adventure on IDE vs framework, the above page
by Wikipedia is classified as follows (bottom of the page):
"Category: Integrated development environments"
This means that I am right in considering IDEs as a more general
cathegory, as "frameworks" are indeed a component of IDEs.
Let us move forward, or I shall rather say backwards to my original
post. Do you have any experience about IDEs that generate
cross-platform executables?

If you read the Wikipedia page on IDEs
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_development_environment) you
will see that it says right at the start:
"IDEs normally consist of a source code editor, a compiler and/or
interpreter, build-automation tools, and (usually) a debugger. Sometimes
a version control system and various tools to simplify the construction
of a GUI are integrated as well."
which is in complete agreement with what people here have been saying.
GUI construction and other framework-type elements are an optional
extra, not part of the core idea of an IDE.

Not at all. Wikipedia's page is in complete disagreement with them. By
cathegorizing A in B, for any A and B, one means that B is more general
than A, or A is a special case or part of B. Wikipedia says that A (the
framework) is part of B (the IDE). What people have been saying here is
that A (the framework) is "not part of" B (the IDE), which is exactly
the negation of the above statement.

It does not say that. It says that an IDE *can* include a framework, not
that it must - in the text, not in the categories (and a simple tree
of categories cannot handle nuances such as this, unless the arcs are
labelled).

... but the original statement is a misrepresentation.
You have conveniently snipped the text of the definition itself, which
contradicts your reading of the category tree. IDEs and frameworks are
separate things. An IDE can exist without including a framework of
libraries etc., though some IDEs do incorporate framework elements.
Likewise, a framework can exist without an IDE - I don't need to use an
IDE to use the Tk GUI building framework, for example.
The statements "A can include B" and "A must include B" are not equivalent.

David, the Wikipedia reads correctly. There is no further ground for
misunderstandings. Also, the word "Integrated" in "Integrated
Development Environment" should (must) ring you a bell. Your
disagreement on "A is part of B" vs "B can be a part of A" is just
playing with words.

Unless I spot anything better, I am settling for wxWidgets. I think
I'll port the application's GUI from tk to wxWidgets, and follow the

Yes it does, and it says that your definition is wrong.
You're being childish, and you'll get no further help from me.

I could tell you about something better, but it wouldn't fit your definition
of "IDE", so I guess I won't bother arguing about it with you.

No it didn't.
It wanted all %counted_hash{key} to be $counted_hash{key}.
The curly braces are part of the expression that perl is
trying to evaluate.

The solution to that would be to not use "my $a" in sort
comparison at ./attempt3.pl line 237.

No, but explaining a better way would surely be too pedantic, so I'll
take your earlier recommendation and simply "ignore it". :-)
