What's the best cgi Perl module to list installed Perl modules ? Or,
since "best" doesn't have a real sense : what's the module you use to
list all the installed module on the server ?
I've often used PerlDiver (1.1 to 2.33), but it doesn't work in all
circumstances (for example, it doesn't work, here, on a Debian and
Fedora servers).

a) There is no need to mutilate $a:

SV = PVNV(0x74c7c) at 0x589b8

IV = 1
NV = 1
PV = 0

What part are you having problems with:
- gathering information on a windows network share
or
- generate an HTML document
Where do you expect problems?
What have you tried so far? Where have you failed?

Simple. Exactly the same way as you would call any other external program:
- system()
- backticks
- qx()
- exec()
- ...
and how to make it auto refresh ?
To my knowlegde there is no command line parameter or env var or other
option to force IE to auto refresh. It all depends on the document that you
load.

Maybe better to explain what you want to do, and why you want to refresh.
Sounds like a bot for ad fraud to me, but I love to be wrong on this.
If you need to refresh a page often to kick something into action (for
example a CGI script if you have no crontab access), you can do this from
Perl directly without a problem.

Subject: How to reference memory address returned from Win32::API call
Message-Id: <1162964481.986287.124270@h54g2000cwb.googlegroups.com>
Below is my code to enumerate services. The returned buffer $lpServices
is an array of the structure ENUM_SERVICE_STATUS. After unpacking it, I
got the memory address of the variable lpServiceName which points to
somewhere in the buffer $lpServices. My problem is how do I reference
the address? Unlike a C program, I cannot reference that value
directly. What should I do?
typedef struct _SERVICE_STATUS {
DWORD dwServiceType;
DWORD dwCurrentState;
DWORD dwControlsAccepted;
DWORD dwWin32ExitCode;
DWORD dwServiceSpecificExitCode;
DWORD dwCheckPoint;
DWORD dwWaitHint;
} SERVICE_STATUS;
typedef struct _ENUM_SERVICE_STATUS {
LPTSTR lpServiceName;
LPTSTR lpDisplayName;
SERVICE_STATUS ServiceStatus;
} ENUM_SERVICE_STATUS;
---CODE---
use Win32::API;
my $fnOpenSCManager = Win32::API->new('Advapi32.dll', 'OpenSCManager',
'PPI', 'I');
my $fnEnumServicesStatus = Win32::API->new('Advapi32.dll',
'EnumServicesStatus', 'IIIPIPPP', 'I');
my $hSCManager = $fnOpenSCManager->Call(0,0,0x000f003f);
die unless $hSCManager;
my $cbBufSize = 4;
my $pcbBytesNeeded = pack("N",0);
my $lpServicesReturned = pack("N",0);
my $lpResumeHandle = pack("N",0);
my @Services;
@Services[0 .. 36*$cbBufSize] = 0;
my $lpServices = pack("N*",@Services);
my $ret = $fnEnumServicesStatus->Call( $hSCManager,
0x3B, #SERVICE_DRIVER |
SERVICE_WIN32
0x3, #SERVICE_STATE_ALL
$lpServices,
36*$cbBufSize,
$pcbBytesNeeded,
$lpServicesReturned,
$lpResumeHandle

Hi,
I have written two modules with the following structure
Sta::Wf
Sta::Txt
I have a Makefile with the follwing DIR command
'DIR' => [ qw( Sta/Txt Sta/Wf )],
After comiling the first module, i get the following error after
apparently trying to cd back
cd ..
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cd' : return code '0x1'
Stop.
If i remove one of the directories, i dont get an error, but the last
line is also
cd ..
The compiles work, if done seperately.
I am on WinXP, Activestate perl 5.8.8 build 8.19 COmpiler i am using is

Are you sure you need to include that ''DIR => ...' entry ? (What happens if
you remove it ?).
See, for example the libwin source package (
http://search.cpan.org/~jdb/libwin32-0.26/ ), which contains a number of
modules and Makefile.PL's in various subdirectories - all of which get built
by simply running the top level Makefile.PL - without any need for a "DIR =>
.." entry in that top level Makefile.PL.
Cheers,
Rob

Subject: perl exceptions and return value in finally block
Message-Id: <1162956398.991736.311180@m73g2000cwd.googlegroups.com>
Hello !
I need to know return value from try block in finally block.
For example, I have code like this
try {
code 1...
return x1 if ...
code 2...
return x2 if ...
etc...
}
finally {
my $ret = $how_to_get_return_value_from_try_block; #?
};
So finally block not only for exception processing, but also
for processing of return code from try block.
Is any build into perl mechanisms to let this value know
in finally block? I study man page of Error.pm and not found
any such possibility.
