Subject: backquoted command hangs after GPS read
Message-Id: <1168213922.358788.73790@q40g2000cwq.googlegroups.com>
I'm working on a Windows application that grabs GPS and Iperf data. My
app accesses the GPS receiver through a serial port by way of
GPS::NMEA, and it gets the Iperf data by way of `iperf -c $options`.
The backquoted command works until a GPS capture has been performed,
but after even a single GPS capture the backquoted Iperf command, in
fact *any* backquoted command, causes my app to hang. An attempt to
have the command pipe its output to a filehandle gives the same result.
Note: My GPS code closes the serial port after each capture.

i/o ops, regexes, etc.
my rule is to avoid $_ in general as i prefer named variables
(preferably lexicals) as they document the code better. i only use $_
when there is no other choice (map/grep) or where is provides a distinct
advantage (e.g. see Sort::Maker which uses it to pass in the records in $_
for key extraction).

I was expecting a nested loop with the inner iterator not affecting the outer
loop, ie the inner iterator scope is local to the inner loop.
Having done some googling, it appears that nesting a foreach loop would have
worked in the expected manner, because the iterator is preserved on entry and
exit from the loop, but this does not happen with a for loop.

Ok. Thanks for the input.

Theoretically, yes, but, in practice, perl has been smart enough not to
do that for ages.

You are mistaken. From "perldoc perlsyn":
The "foreach" keyword is actually a synonym for the "for" keyword, so
you can use "foreach" for readability or "for" for brevity.

A foreach loop is a foreach loop no matter which keyword you use.

i think he means the difference between the foreach loop (over a list) and
the c style for loop. perlsyn states that the foreach loop variable is
localized unless it is declared right there with my. this happens for
named or $_. the c style for loop doesn't do anything and you have to
localize or use my vars yourself (even for $_).
The "foreach" loop iterates over a normal list value and sets the vari$B!>(B
able VAR to be each element of the list in turn. If the variable is
preceded with the keyword "my", then it is lexically scoped, and is
therefore visible only within the loop. Otherwise, the variable is
implicitly local to the loop and regains its former value upon exiting
the loop. If the variable was previously declared with "my", it uses
that variable instead of the global one, but it$B!G(Bs still localized to
the loop. This implicit localisation occurs only in a "foreach" loop.
now on top of that, you can use 'for' OR 'foreach' for either style of
loop. it is what is inside the () that actually determines the loop
style. the docs seem to use 'foreach' for the list loop and 'for' for
the c style loop. i do the same thing (but i RARELY use c style for
loops).

Assuming that the reader is *not* using the most common OS on the planet is
pretentious. Abigail's entire post was useless - she gave no information.
She informed everyone that she is sarcastic (in the case of the first
answer), and that she prefers UNIX/Linux (in the case of the second). At
least I assume she prefers UNIX/Linux. As it happens so do I, but I am a
professional software developer and don't assume everyone uses a flavour of
*nix.
There's a good example of Abigail's type of post in "Internet for Dummies".
It describes someone posting on a NG asking for help, and someone else posts
a reply saying that they don't have an answer...
_Using_ grep is not pretentious. Assuming that the poster is working on UNIX
or Linux is.
I respect what I've seen of Abigail's contributions, but somehow I think I'd
not like having her on any team that I was part of.

Well, last time I looked, Windows didn't come with perl either.
'grep' works on Windows, yes.
But that's not the point. The user was using 'echo', pipes, and single
quotes to delimit the Perl program. Both 'echo' and pipes are very
Unixy things, and Windows people are always complaining that single
quotes around a Perl one liner doesn't work on their shells.

I don't think assuming the user is using Unix and not Windows is elitist,
given how the user wrote his code.

Well, I recognize a line of Unix when I see one. Besides, the OP posted
his posting using 'KNode'. If he's capable of installing KDE on Windows,
I'm sure he won't have much trouble installing 'grep'.

Yes.
You could use threads and share an array, or you could use shared
memory and independent processes. Or you could tie an array to
a database table.
Now, I won't claim any solution is easy.

#The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
#comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
#the single line:
#
# subscribe perl-users
#or:
# unsubscribe perl-users
#
#to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
NOTE: due to the current flood of worm email banging on ruby, the smtp
server on ruby has been shut off until further notice.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
#To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
#to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
#where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
#For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
#perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
#sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
#answer them even if I did know the answer.
