RE: What URL should be set within PPM for ActiveState 6xx builds
Replying to my own post, I see that if you copy extract http://www.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/6xx-builds-only/Bundle-Expect.zip to your harddisk, CD to the extract directory, then everything APPEARS to go OK: bash-2.05a$ ppm.bat install Bundle-Expect.ppd Installing package 'Bundle-Expect.ppd'... Installing C:\Perl\site\lib\Bundle\Bundle-Expect.pm Writing C:\Perl\site\lib\auto\Bundle\Expect\.packlist --- However, if you then try to install Expect, you get the error: bash-2.05a$ ppm3.bat PPM - Programmer's Package Manager version 3.0.1.

Type 'help' to get started. ppm install Expect Error: no suitable implementation found for 'IO-Tty'. ppm This seems to be because in fact there isn't any real 'content' in the Windows portion of the Bundle-Expect ZIP file although the PPD says that it contains stuff for Windows. Trying to install IO-Tty from http://www.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/6xx-builds-only/?_x=1 similarly fails because there's no Windows entry in that PPD: bash-2.05a$ ppm.bat install IO-tty.ppd Installing package 'IO-tty.ppd'... Error installing package 'IO-tty.ppd': Read a PPD for 'IO-tty.ppd', but it is no t intended for this build of Perl (MSWin32-x86-multi-thread) With regard to one of my previous questions, sorry, I'd forgotten that PPDs are human-readable XML text files. As a previous poster suggested, I think that this is a dead-end. It seems that ActiveState's build process should be a bit more restrictive to avoid posting non-functional PPD/zip archives like this.

Make sure you have permissions to the share and remember to use \\ for each \. Even better, use / as in Win32::AdminMisc::GetDriveGeometry(//server/share). The documentation on CPAN says you need a trailing / at the end of a UNC name but it seems to work without it. -Original Message- From: steve silvers [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 06, 2003 2:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Win32::AdminMisc Importance: Low I have checked this out.

Re: Win32::OLE with Active directory question
This is completely a non-perl response and a non-adsi response which is where the issue is for this question but once I saw the recommendations of ADSIEdit and LDP I had to put in a command line tool recommendation especially since it is one I wrote. :op Check out adfind which you can get on the free win32 tools page of www.joeware.net; I actually script around it with Perl on a nearly daily basis. It does command line LDAP Searches against AD and since it uses LDAP instead of ADSI I am able to easily get all attributes for an object. It will decode several of the main attributes that are binary (Octet Strings) such as SID's, GUID's, etc. You can also/alternatively look at ldapsearch from the iPlanet SDK which has a little trouble with AD sometimes and you can also look at search.vbs which is in the support tools of Windows 2000 but again that uses ADSI and you need to specify specific attributes to return. The answer to your question is the answer to the question How do you enumerate all attributes for an instantiated object with an ADSI LDAP query? and I don't think I have ever seen that but it definitely doesn't mean it isn't possible or doesn't exist. I know you can query the Schema and find out all properties that are possible but in most implementations you will find tens if not hundreds of attributes that aren't used on a majority of the objects. joe -- - Original Message - From: Sean Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Norris, Joseph [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Perl Win32 Users (E-mail) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 06, 2003 8:34 AM Subject: RE: Win32::OLE with Active directory question You might want to look at the object through ADSIEdit and LDP ...

Win32::OLE and Excel, Word, Access etc.
I see many questions on this list asking about using Win32::OLE in interacting
with these (and other MS programs). Could someone point me to either a book or
online documentation which reveals all the methods one can use with each
program?
For example from a recent post:
$excel - {DisplayAlerts} = 0;
$book - SaveAs ($pwd\\spreadsheet.xls);
Where would one find out what the DisplayAlerts variable is? Where is SaveAs
documented?

Thread return value problem
Hi perl guru
I'm new to thread in perl and during my exercise I experiment a problem
retrieving data from a child thread.
Using the world famous tecnique of cut paste, I get some piece of code
from docs and I'v build a full script.
This script is pasted at the bottom, and work ok from thread poit of view.
The problem happen when I try to retrieve the content of the
array build inside the thread subroutine. The print statament inside the sub
show the content of the array and it is ok for every thread.
The subsequent print statement outside the sub code, give me strange values
and not what I expect, in other words what is wrong in my
code ?
I'v also tried to submit the sample code find in HTML docs perlthrtut -
tutorial on threads in Perl section Waiting For A Thread To Exit
with the same result.
Someone know wher is my error/misunderstanding.
Many tanks for attention, best regards and Happy new perl-year
Gianvy
(sorry for my poor english, I understand your difficult task, decode my mail
and after understand my problem, tankyou again)
