RE: help with text
Hi, This is going away a bit from my first question but it is what I eventually would like to do. Is it possible to let me have a snip of code from the HTML Perl script. What I would hope for is something like, HTML form say Aform.html submitted to Ascript.cgi which collects information and passes it to another cgi script say Bscript.cgi on a different host (if possible). Thanks again.

RE: help with text
HTML form say Aform.html submitted to Ascript.cgi which collects information and passes it to another cgi script say Bscript.cgi on a different host (if possible). Use the LWP modules particularly perldoc (www.perldoc.com, select modules in CPAN) LWP::UserAgent, this allows you to submit forms and get the result back in a perl script or module, it also allows for things like logging in, accepting cookies, etc. regards, A. ___ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs

Why cannot compile Unicode::Map8 under Windows and Visual C?
Dear friends, please help with the deadlock. I have Open Perl 5.6, Windows 98, Visual C++ 6.0; all works perfectly. Downloaded and compiled a few modules from cpan.org and then compiled them WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM, in particular Unicode::Map and Convert::Cyr. But Unicode::Map8 (version 0.11) failed to compile: the process stopped on 97th line with diagnosis: my_perl: undeclared identifier left of -IStdIO' must point to struct/union The point is in the line: ch=PerlIO_getc(f); If I comment it out, the process goes smoothly and I get a working (but useless) dll. ;-( What is the problem? Maybe somebody could send me the compiled dll or the whole module. My Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you in advance!

Win32::GUI or FindBin under Windows 95?
Has anyone had any difficulty using Win32::GUI v0.665 under Windows 95? My current code base works perfectly under Windows 98 and up, but nothing seems to happen (double-click, hourglass for a second, no hourglass) under 95. I've yet to do adequate testing/debugging, but I know that the last working Win95 version I had was using .502. Or, on the other hand, anyone know of issues with FindBin? My previous working version was using simply use lib ./lib, but the newest version (again, which works everywhere on Win98 and up) uses FindBin exclusively. The sad thing is, my only Win95 box is an old laptop - 66mhz with 8 megs of RAM. It takes me about 15 minutes to get one response out of my application, and it's making debugging this thing a flippin' nightmare.

Re: RE: help with pdf file download?
Thanks Josh for noticing that typo.
unfortunately that's not the problem.
I simply cut'n'pasted the wrong version of code yesterday (I had many different
attempts with various methods and I tried at the end to have a separate case for PDF
which at the end I aborted forgotting to change it back to 'eq').
My original correct code is:
if (-B $file) { #binary file...
$file =~ m|(.*/)(.+)\.([^\.]+)$|;
my $ext = $3; my $mimetype;
#most common mime types
if (uc($ext) eq PDF) { $mimetype=application/pdf;}
elsif (uc($ext) eq DOC) { $mimetype=application/msword;}
elsif (uc($ext) eq PPT) { $mimetype=application/powerpoint;}
elsif (uc($ext) eq ZIP) { $mimetype=application/x-zip-compressed;}
elsif (uc($ext) eq EXE) { $mimetype=application/octet-stream;}
elsif (uc($ext) eq EPS) { $mimetype=application/postscript;}
elsif (uc($ext) eq PS) { $mimetype=application/postscript;}
elsif (uc($ext) eq GZ) { $mimetype=application/x-gzip;}
elsif (uc($ext) eq LATEX) { $mimetype=application/x-latex;}
elsif (uc($ext) eq TAR) { $mimetype=application/x-tar;}
elsif (uc($ext) eq EXE) { $mimetype=application/octet-stream;}
my $size = -s $file;
open(INFILE, $file) || die img_not_found;
binmode(INFILE);
binmode(STDOUT);
print Content-type: $mimetype\n\n;
while (INFILE) {
print $_;
}
close(INFILE);
} #binary mode file
The mime type is correctly set (I am sure as I debugged it step by step and printed
out everything at each step).
The output (downloaded file) is perfectly working for .doc files and for .zip files
(the ones I tried).
But for PDFs, the output is all the time a 2kb with the PDF header and binary parts.
But nothing to do with the original PDF.
Any suggestions? I tried with an IIS server on WinNT and Sambar server on WinNT.
Can anyone test the code above or give further suggestions?
Thanks

Re: Memory consumption
At 17:39 2002-10-15 -0700, Mike Gossland wrote: I used Win32::SystemInfo to show free memory available. I was surprised to see how much memory was consumed on each pass. By cutting out sections of code, I was able to see exactly what was consuming the memory. I found that LWP ate up a bunch, and substitutions ate up more. Sounds weird. perl -v says what? Could you post a minimal piece of code to see if we can duplicate this? I run spiders to fetch a LOT of urls from dmoz.org, and I don't have a general problem with this. Perhaps it's only noticed when there are huge files being fetched? ( I do restart the program after n thousand urls though, because the memory of a large scalar can't be returned to the system, only reused by perl. One problem I had was with HTML::Parse, where I had to break circular references myself in order to release the memory of a parsed document. ) During my tests on Windows, I found that up to 1 MB was being consumed each time through the loop! I found that my output results file was close to 1MB at this time. I was updating the results file by slurping the whole thing into memory, doing a substitution and writing it back out again. By changing it to read one line at a time, while writing to a different filehandle, the consumption dropped to almost zero. Okay, maybe my first method was wasteful, but I didn't expect the memory to be used just once! What does the s/// look like? I was very surprised to see that when I finished with the memory (by it going out of scope, or being undefined, or set to ), it wasn't being returned for re-use, but that's the way it worked. One thing I noticed with Windows perl is that it seems like memory is effectively released when minimizing the console window. At least that's what it looks like in the Task Manager. Don't know the relation to the internals of perl's garbage collection etc, or if it's just something reported by the Task manager. It happens with other programs as well it seems. /J -- --- -- -- -- -- - - - Johan LindströmSourcerer @ Boss Casinos [EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest bookmark: SourceForge.net Project Info - Perl Direct Conn... http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdcc/ dmoz (1 of 30): /Arts/Music/Styles/Rock/ 44 ___ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
