perl to flash
We currently use html tables as a template to control the layout of our online course materials. We want to replace the html tables with an alternate technology. Ideally, we would like to render our webpage by writing to a flash skin, or something similar. The skins will have up dedicated buttons and will want to pass the button text and link info to the skin using perl script. The skin will contain a text content window to house approx 1 kb text. We would like to pass a text effect variable to the skin to control the text rendering. The skin needs to generate cgi so that we can read back into perl script. Would like to hear from anybody that has done this or can direct me to a solution.

I had wondered about an || - lazy eval et al - would it be [better | no
different] using lower precedence 'or'? Using 'return' seems to
generalise better when I have a whole list of sort fields, as it can be
used in a loop construct?
You are the second person to suggest passing keys into the sort sub, and
getting it to lookup the child-hash - it seems to me it would be way
more efficient to pass in the hash values and not bother with the
lookup?

mmm - looks like a more complex approach to me?
The point of the first approach was to create approximate groups using
the smallest and largest values in a quick first pass. The bulk of the
work is easily performed. The second and final pass using the sorted
partial groups and the sorted remaining values will always associate the
best available value with the right partial group.
I think this would also be easier to extend to groups of more than three
numbers - you just extend the initial approximation pass to group more
numbers from either end. It gets a little more interesting when the
desired number of elements in a group is even, as you cant just blindly
grab both ends.
Using a sort feels simpler than calculating a target average and
iterating through all remaining numbers to see which value will bring
the partial group closest to the desired target. Remember that @numbers
is already sorted. I would guess that the 'calc a target and search for
best fit' algorithm actually does more work as coded above, consider
that it creates one partial group, and then searches through all
remaining numbers for the best fit. It then creates a second partial
group, and searches through all remaining numbers for the best fit, etc
etc etc.

passing a variable to a module
Quick question. I want to pass a variable to a non-oo module that I
created. But I how do I get the module to contain the value of the
variable that was created in the 'main' namespace. I think there is
something easy that I am not understanding. Example code below.
PROGRAM BEGIN
#!/usr/bin/perl
use HelloWorld;
$var = 'hello world';
printStatement;
exit;
PROGRAM END
MODULE BEGIN
#!/usr/bin/perl
package HelloWorld;
require Exporter;
our @ISA = qw(Exporter);
our @EXPORT= qw(printStatement);
our $VERSION = 1.00;
sub printStatement { print $var; }
1;
MODULE END
THINGS I'VE TRIED BEGIN
I've tried passing in $var to printStatement,
printStatement($var)
in the program
I've tried using the 'main' namespace in the module
print $main::var;
I've tried passing a reference the $var in the module
printStatement (\$var);
THINGS I'VE TRIED END
Executive summary: how do I define a variable in my program and have a
module use that variable definition (in a non-oo module).

Conditional in regex
Hi all. I'm new to perl, a new programmer, and I badly need guidance. I'm
trying to parse a config file with key/value pairs seperated by white space
and surrounded by curly brackets. It has multiple fields that look like
this:
{
Key value
Key value
}
My solution has been to parse it with something simple --
while ($file_contents =~ /(\w+)\s*\{([^}]*)\}/gs) {
push @new, $2;
}
foreach (@new){
$_ =~ /\b(\w+)\s+(.*)\s+
\b(\w+)\s+(.*)/xgs;
My @next_tmp_variable = ($1, $2, etc);
}
-- but the config definitions contained in those curly brackets are
different lengths. Some only have a four left hand values, while others have
six or more. My solution isn't giving me what I really need.
So I have two questions. First, I don't understand how to test this so that
I parse all the values between the curly braces, regardless of how many
items are there. Second, and equally important, what kind of data structure
should I put the results in? I think I need a hash of hashes. What I'd like
to do is assign each left hand value as the key in a hash. Then, in each set
there's a left 'command' where the right hand value will always be unique,
which would be perfect for use as the name of an alias for the hash or as
the key to a reference to a hash of that definition. Is there a better way?
What's the best method for assigning all that stuff?
Thanks!

Thanks to everyone for the replies.
I expected what you pointed out above, that /\b(w+)\s+(\w+)\s+/gs would
match every instance of the pattern. Instead I got wildly results, with
random letters in some variables and the values I wanted in a different
offset every time. I cannot explain that, but the pattern works with the
left hand values written as literals (/\b(word)\s+(.*)\s+/)

This can be treated as key/values delimited by whitespace.
I wonder if the unexpected results could be related to tabs or something
else besides \n? How do I see what's used for white space? Shouldn't \s
match any whitespace character?

Thanks. That's cool. Since this is the beginner's list, I'll just dive in
and ask a(nother) dumb question. I'm not sure I understand the double curly
braces around split. Would you mind showing me that in a less terse form?

The references are good once you've got a lay of the land, but a reference is different from a tutorial. The organization of a tutorial is to start at nothing, and build understanding in logical steps. The organization of a reference is for finding out the particulars of a given function or operator if you already know that's what you want. Perhaps you should reconsider working through the tutorial. It's how I got started with Perl over 5 years ago. I worked through it *once*, then never looked at it again. It's a "disposable" jump start into the reference (which is dog eared and very heavily marked and used). > Yes the program/script works but Im not sure if its > effecient or not...

If you care next week, you can re-work it next week.) And, as a training exercise, you can take working software, make some changes and see what happens. If you break it, restore it and try something different. What did you learn? If it still works, what did you learn? The basic idea here is to have *working* software to muck around with. You don't learn as well with broken software. Get it to work (dirty, ugly, slow, whatever), then keep it working as your refine it into clean, pretty, fast software, and learn lots along the way. If you work with broken software, you're not sure that what you did to transmute broken software into broken software is something worth remembering.

Re: defined{ness}
Dermot :
Hi All,
I am unsure if the following statement is going to do what I want.
I want to test if there is a value in $hash_ref{'someval'} NOT if the
key is defined. I'd also like to avoid un-sightly "undefined value"
errors.
So which of the following is best:
if (defined($hash_ref{'someval'}) {}
I may think this is the better way.
also you can check perldoc -f exists and find something like:
print "Exists\n" if exists $hash{$key};
print "Defined\n" if defined $hash{$key};
print "True\n" if $hash{$key};

Matching Over Multiple Lines
All,
I know this has been asked many times, and I have read the documentation
("perldoc -q "matching over more than one line") and still can't make head
or tails out of this.
I have a problem where my pattern can be in one line, or span multiple
lines. This is what I have so far (simplified):
#!/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
$/ = '';
my $pat = << 'EOF';
^
AAA
(.*)?
ZZZ
$
EOF
my $file = "./mytext";
while () {
if ( /$pat/gms ) {
print "vv\n";
print "FOUND: $_";
print "^^\n";
}
else {
print "vv\n";
print "NOT FOUND: $_";
print "^^\n";
}
}
__DATA__
AAAthis is the beginning of our text
and it will continue over a few lines.
In case you are not sure of what you
see, you should check the document
yourself.ZZZ
This part has nothing to do whatsoever
with the above text, but to be sure,
you should not see this.
AAABut this single line you should seeZZZ
AAABut this double line, so the
question is do you see itZZZ
This part you will not see.
I am not sure if I can use $/ to gobble up a paragraph, since we are reading
and parsing XML files, which are around 10M in size. I need to do a
non-greedy pattern match.
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong please?
Thanks in advance,
Jeff

Re: Save html page using perl
Sarsamkar, Paryushan:
Hi,
I have a URL, which displays different content at different time. Now I
want to save the page as html page to a particular location. How can I
do that using perl?
I once did the same stuff, so I share the script to you.
sub get_web {
my $url = shift;
my $timeout = 35;
chdir "/data/wget";
eval {
local $SIG{ALRM} = sub {die "timeout!\n"};
alarm $timeout;
system("wget -p -q $url");
alarm 0;
};
if ($@) {
system("killall -9 wget");
}
}
We use "wget -p" to get the page and its full dependency.
You could also use LWP but that's complicated to fetch the page and all
its dependency.

Hi,
What causes writting of STDERR?
If it's due to die and warn, you could redirect them to the customized routines.
Something like:
$SIG{__DIE__}=\&log_die;
$SIG{__WARN__}=\&log_warn;

my $time=scalar localtime;
open (HDW,">>",$err_log);

But you'd better pass the hash as a reference to the subroutine.
exitint($hostname, \%login);
sub exiting {
my $hostname = shift;
my %login = %{+shift};
...
}
print "login: $login $hostname\n";
I don't see where you defined the variable of $login.
Have you 'use strict' and 'use warnings'?

What is the point of passing a reference if you are just going to copy
the whole hash anyway (which is what the OP was doing)?
If people want to change the hash's elements in subroutine and don't
want to influence the original one, then passing a copy is right.
Otherwise copy a hash is wasteful for memory, given the size is large. :)

force using the version of a module
Hello, The latest version of LWP::UserAgent (v5.834) has a method of "local_address", which is needed by my software. The lower version of this module (for example, v5.824) doesn't have that method. So how to force to use the latest version of LWP::UserAgent in the perl script? Thanks. Merry Holidays! Jeff.

Peter Scott : % perldoc -f use use Module VERSION LIST use Module VERSION [...] If the VERSION argument is present between Module and LIST, then the "use" will call the VERSION method in class Module with the given version as an argument.

Re: Script to create huge sample files
Parag Kalra:
I am curious to know more on UTF and understand related issues that may
creep in my algorithm. Could someone please shed some light on it.
Can I use following:
use Encode;
while(<$sample_file_fh>){
# Encoding into utf data
$utf_data = encode("utf8", $_);
For the line above, I may think it's not right.
What you got from <$sample_file_fh> is maybe different encoding chunk,
for example,iso-8859-1,gb2312 or UTF-8 etc.
You want to translate them to Perl's internal utf8 format firstly,which
includes a utf8 flag and the data part.After translation,utf8 flag
should be on and the data part is the chunk with utf8 encoding.You do it
with the decode() function from Encode module:
my $internal_utf8 = decode("gb2312",$_); # given the data was gb2312
encoding originally
After that,you could translate the $internal_utf8 to any encoding string
you want, use the encode() function from Encode module as well:
my $output = encode("utf8",$internal_utf8); # output with UTF-8 encoding
HTH.
$data_string = $data_string.$utf_data;

Re: Script to create huge sample files
Parag Kalra:
Hmmm - http://search.cpan.org/~dankogai/Encode-2.39/lib/Encode/Guess.pm
It says right at the bottom that below method won't work to guess the
encoding. :(
Encode::Guess maybe work, but not so exactly.
Because some Code Bits of an encoding are overlapped (for example,gb2312
and gbk),so you can't get the encoding style of a small string just by
guess. But for large text,it maybe work rightly.
Here is another guess way (not by me) you may reference to:
use Encode;
use LWP::Simple qw(get);
use strict;
my $str = get "http://www.sina.com.cn";;
eval {my $str2 = $str; Encode::decode("gbk", $str2, 1)};
print "not gbk: $...@\n" if $@;
eval {my $str2 = $str; Encode::decode("utf8", $str2, 1)};
print "not utf8: $...@\n" if $@;
eval {my $str2 = $str; Encode::decode("big5", $str2, 1)};
print "not big5: $...@\n" if $@;

regex optimization
Hello,
Can the code (specially the regex) below be optimized to run faster?
#!/usr/bin/perl
for ($i=0; $i<1000; $i+=1) {
open HD,"index.html" or die $!;
while() {
print $1,"\n" if /href="http:\/\/(.*?)\/.*" target="_blank"/;
}
close HD;
}
The "index.html" is got from:
wget http://www.265.com/Kexue_Jishu/
I ask this because someone posted a question on ruby-talk list, shows
perl's regex is much faster than ruby's.
[Quote]
#!/usr/bin/ruby
1000.times do
File.open("index.html").each do |c|
puts $1 if /href="http:\/\/(.*?)\/.*" target="_blank"/ =~ c
end
end
time ./test.rb >/tmp/t
elap 6.511 user 6.336 syst 0.136 CPU 99.40%
#!/usr/bin/perl
for ($i=0; $i<1000; $i+=1) {
open HD,"index.html" or die $!;
while() {
print $1,"\n" if /href="http:\/\/(.*?)\/.*" target="_blank"/;
}
close HD;
}
time ./test.pl >/tmp/t
elap 0.864 user 0.844 syst 0.020 CPU 100.04%
So perl is 7 or 8 times faster here.
[/Quote]
But someone another optimized the ruby code and used ruby's built-in
scan method, which makes the regex run a lot faster.
[Quote]
I get best results in Ruby with:
regexp = %r{href="http://([^"/]*)/[^"]*"\s+target="_blank"}
1000.times do
puts File.read('index.html').scan(regexp)
end
~/ruby/bench time ruby19 regex.rb > /dev/null
real 0m1.428s
user 0m1.359s
sys 0m0.056s
~/ruby/bench time perl5.10.0 regex.pl > /dev/null
real 0m1.189s
user 0m1.095s
sys 0m0.084s
It's still slower. Perl has regular expression magic beyond my
imagination, though. I heard they take the most "rare" character in the
literal part of the regex (let's say, the colon) and search for it using
machine code, and then work their way backwards to the beginning of the
regexp...
Say what you want, but Perl rocks when it comes to text processing
speed.
[/Quote]
So I'm asking what's Perl's optimization for that regex.
I hope this doesn't disturb everyone, thanks.
Regards,
Jeff.

If I understand for that correctly, what he tried to explain is, under
some cases the $@ is set by other eval {} call, not the current eval
{} you followed. Though I don't know if there is the case it will
happen...

Also "nohup" redirect all stdout and stderr to a file "nohup.out".
So you have also to reopen STDOUT and STDERR to a file handle if doing
it in the script.

make an alias to function
Hi,
I have a module, and I wanted to make an alias with a function in that module.
package abc;
{ # make an alias to another function
no strict 'refs';
*{__PACKAGE__::init_squid_for_reverseproxy} = \&init_reverseproxy;
}
But this won't work when calling it:
my $obj = abc->new;
$obj->init_squid_for_reverseproxy;
The error says:
Can't locate object method "init_squid_for_reverseproxy" via package "abc" .
Why?
OK I simply updated the alias definition to:
*init_squid_for_reverseproxy = \&init_reverseproxy;
This works as I want. Is this the suitable one?

Re: help on a soap client
Hello,
Now I'm using the code below:
use strict;
use SOAP::Lite +trace => 'all';
my $soap = SOAP::Lite->new( proxy =>
'http://192.168.1.100/Service/IndicatorsService.asmx');
$soap->default_ns('http://tempuri.org/');
$soap->on_action(sub { join '', @_ });
my $method = SOAP::Data->name('DataUpLoad')
->attr({xmlns => 'http://tempuri.org/'});
my @param = ( SOAP::Data->name('input')->value(
[
SOAP::Data->name('User')->value('demo'),
SOAP::Data->name('UserIP')->value('0.0.0.0'),
SOAP::Data->name('NetType')->value(0),
SOAP::Data->name('OS')->value('Linux'),
SOAP::Data->name('Data')->value(
[
SOAP::Data->name('DataUpLoadInputData')->value(
[
SOAP::Data->name('INDICATORSNUMBER')->value('1010101010101210'),
SOAP::Data->name('RECORDINGTIME')->value('2010-03-29 17:00:00'),
SOAP::Data->name('FVALUE')->value(50),
SOAP::Data->name('Valid')->value(''),
SOAP::Data->name('Info')->value(''),
]),
]),
]));
my $run = $soap->call($method => @param);
But sorry it can't run correctly yet.
The error shows:
http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";

No. ($foo == 1) is a list which always has a value of either 1 or 0 so
it really return a true value in both cases.

Ternary operator: Am I missing something?
Hi all,
Am I missing something? I have the following chunks of code:
EX 1:
if ($foo == 1){
$bar = 0;
}else{
$bar = 1;
}
EX 2:
($foo == 1) ?
$bar = 0 :
$bar = 1;
These are logically equivalent, right? But when I've run the latter,
$bar always comes away with a value of 0, regardless of the value of
$foo.
This is particularly confusing, as the following snippet:
EX 3:
($foo == 1) ?
warn "Got 0\n" :
warn "Got 1\n";
is producing the results I expect.
Am I doing something stupid or missing something obvious?
Thanks,
Jeff Soules

Good idea. I almost always do in if-statements, but it hadn't
occurred to me that it might be a good idea to do the same thing
*after* the conditional!
Thanks for the help everyone.
Best,
Jeff
