you are right in asking me.
with "system" I meant "machine".
Thus, your suggestions below seems to do the work.

ok, but theres is a tiny problem.
if I place my folder "mycode" into
C:/Perl/site/lib
C:/Perl/site/lib/mycode
the "use" statements have to be corrected to start with "mycode::"
How can I avoid this?

Yes. It shows again that a truly universal dumper is impossible.
However, the type of dumper I have in mind would at least know about
the attribute and have a chance to complain when it can't deal with
it. Relying on the inheritance tree may bypass attributes altogether.

Subject: Email::Folder->messages returns only one element
Message-Id: <1180584679.749411.325690@a26g2000pre.googlegroups.com>
I'm working on parsing multiple messages out of one msf file(mbox
folder type).
I took the module of Email::Folder to construct with msf file, and
then get the list of all messages contained in the msf file.
But, the msf file is considered as a wholly one message, not multiple
messages (actually I have multiple messages within the msf file)
Here is my code snippet:
my $folder = Email::Folder->new($file); //$file is a valid mbox
folder type
foreach ($folder->messages){
print $_->header("Subject"), "\n";
print $_->as_string(), "\n";
//$imapserver->append($box, $_->as_string()); // i want to import
this message to my $imapserver, you can comment this one.
}
The result is:
The first print prints only the first message's subject.
The second print prints all the messages(all of the other messages) in
the msf file as a whole one.
The Email::Folder parses this file as one mail message.
Doesn't $folder->messages return a list of messages?
Is there any where I missed to set the preference of parsing rule?
Thanks.

Does the file have proper message separators?

Actually I am not sure about what is the message separators the parser
uses. The msf file and its mail content is generated by Thunderbird
mail client locally.
Where can I get the rules on valid format of MBox file, so that I can
check if the file generated by Thunderbird is a valid one for
Email::Folder to parse.
Thanks.

Your code, with minor modifications, works for me. Hint: C++ comments
are not Perl comments ;-)
This is obviously not your real code, and you typed it in by hand
without using cut-and-paste.
http://www.augustmail.com/~tadmc/clpmisc/clpmisc_guidelines.html
When I read the POD for Email::Folder, I see this helpful message:

Maybe in your real code, you're doing a while or something rather than a
foreach.
Anyway, a code snippet is inadequate. You should create the smallest
program that demonstrates your problem and ask for help with that.

It's actually very easy to write.
I use Apache mod_rewrite to 'rewrite' all URLs "subliminally" from (.*)
\.Domain\.Etc to /path/to/some/mod_perl.pl?subdomain=$1 then in side
of that mod_perl.pl script use the subdomain name as a KEY to look up
the forwarding URL in a mySQL database then with CGI.pm or even a
Location header forward the user to the new URL. It's simple.
Just write a script that allows your users to choose a subdomain and
forwarding URL. Throw up some .htaccess config, mySQL database and the
above mod_perl script and wahlah you're in business.

The generally snotty tone of this forum is not because it's a newsgroup.
It's because people on this forum like to feel superior to others and
just don't like to be helpful to people asking innocent but somewhat
off-topic questions.
It's a real turnoff. That's why the message volume is plummeting here,
and to some extent, it's why Perl is dying as a viable commercial
language.
I've been coding in Perl since 1992 and reading these newsgroups since
1995; so flame away if it makes you feel better.

Subject: Multiple Line Pattern Match problem
Message-Id: <1180592826.484926.220440@d30g2000prg.googlegroups.com>
Hi All,
Now I need to analyze a file which is composed of several blocks ,
which is defined as below :
Start
<content>
<content>
......
<content>
End
And I need to capture all the blocks which contains several
specific keywords "dma" in the content part.
The perl script used as below :
undef $/; # each read is whole file
while (<>) {
# $mycmd ='^START(.*?)dma(.*?)^End/sgm){
print $&;
}
}
However, for below blocks :
Start
cpu
End
Start
dma
End
The RegExp of perl will take these two blocks as one match and print
out. This is not what I want.
I just need the second block print out and don't the first one not.
Does anyone know how to handle this in perl script ?
Many thanks in advance .
Samuel

Try a google search for install perl on windows. If im not mistaken
there is a an issue with using nmake that disappears if you use make.
But to be sure do the search.

If you're interested you can install the ActivePerl distro
(www.activestate.com).

Others have reported problems with miniperl when attempting to use that
compiler to build perl. I don't think anyone has managed to build perl using
that compiler - I haven't checked for a while, so please let me know if you
discover that's not so.
Building perl is a fairly straightforward procedure using Visual Studio 6.0,
7.0, or 7.1. (Do you have either of them ?)
It's also fairly straightforward using the (freely available) MinGW port of
the gcc compiler and dmake.
For MinGW and dmake:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2435&package_id=82721&release_id=158801
and
http://search.cpan.org/dist/dmake/
I know activestate uses the freely available Windows Server 2003 R2 Platform
SDK compiler for their 64-bit build of ActivePerl (as Visual Studio 6.0
won't work in a 64-bit environment). I think there's a good chance that the
32-bit version of Windows Server 2003 R2 Platform SDK compiler would also
build perl on a 32-bit platform (but I don't really know). You can get it
from:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=0BAF2B35-C656-4969-ACE8-E4C0C0716ADB&displaylang=en
if you want to give it a try.
One other option worth investigating is Strawberry Perl:
http://vanillaperl.com/ .
It's a precompiled perl but it comes packaged with it's own compiler
(MinGW's gcc) and make (dmake) - so there's nothing else that needs to be
installed if you want to build perl extensions. (For that matter, you could
use the MinGW and dmake that comes with Strawberry perl to build your own
perl if you wanted.)
Then, of course, there's ActivePerl (as Dean mentioned). It doesn't give you
a compiler, but there's a good PPM utility for installing pre-built modules.
And I think you might even have a fair degree of success using Visual Studio
C++ Express 2005 to build perl extensions - though I'm loathe to recommend
using that compiler with ActivePerl.
Cheers,
Rob

I am using CPAN to install Mail::Box module. It can be installed on

Here is the error log info. I only attached the tail part, because

I checked the Test::Harness module, but didn't find the
"execute_tests" sub.
Also I tried downloading the source code and the same errors as above
are returned during "make" execution.
I don't know where the problem is. There are tons of dependencies to
have this module installed.
Thanks.

> "execute_tests" is not exported by the Test::Harness module
Looking at %prereq in the Mail::Box Makefile.PL you'll see that version 2.62
(or later) of Test::Harness is required.
I suspect you have an earlier version of Test::Harness that doesn't export
"execute_tests" - as is the case with the version (2.56) of Test::Harness
that I have.
Updating Test::Harness should fix the problem.
I would have thought that CPAN.pm would have detected this and first
installed the latest version of Test::Harness before proceeding with
building Mail::Box - but I don't use CPAN, so I don't really know what has
happened there.
Perhaps the latest version of Test::Harness *did* get installed, but into a
different location than the old version, and the old version is still being
found first ? (Dunno ... just speculating.)
Cheers,
Rob

I can't help you but all I can say is it does NOT work for me. BUT if
I install WWW-Search-MSN and swap the "AltaVista" with "MSN" in your
code it DOES work. Mumia must not of tried it.
