RE: Win32 and alarm

 If you are using Windows 2000 or later you can use the Job subsystem
 to set a time limit on the subprocess.  Here is a simple job.pl script
 that executes any command, but only for a specified number of seconds:
 
   use Win32::Job;
   my $job = Win32::Job-new;
   my $timeout = shift;
   my $exe = $ARGV[0];
   s,,\\,g, ($_ = qq($_)) for @ARGV;
   $job-spawn($exe, @ARGV);
   $job-run($timeout);
 

I didn't know Win32::Job!
Nice to hear it...

Regards,
HT

readdir problem

2006-11-29 Thread Dan Jablonsky
Hi all,
I am trying to read only files in a directory; I need
to jump over the dot files and any subdirectories.
Seems like a simple thing, however with

opendir(DIR, $dir) || die can't opendir $dir: $!;
foreach my $file (readdir DIR) 
{
next if (/^\./); # skip over dot files
print file name is: $file\n;
}

I get . and .. and all subdirectories.

with

opendir(DIR, $dir) || die can't opendir $dir: $!;
foreach my $file (readdir DIR) 
{
next if -d $file); # skip over directories
print file name is: $file\n;
}

I skip the dot files but I still get the
subdirectories. Any idea how do I get only the plain
files?

Thanks,
Dan

There's probably a faster way but you can change this to:
next if (($file =~ /^\./) || (! -f $file));

Problem with case 1, I think, is that next if (/^\./); compares to 
$_, not $file. Should be:

 foreach my $file (readdir(DIR)) {
 next if ($file =~ /^\./);
 }

Problem with case 2, I think, is that you need to provide a full path 
name to -d:

 foreach my $file (readdir(DIR)) {
 next if (-d $dir\\$file);
 }

Keep in mind that I'm using \ as a separator, which should be / for Unix/Linux.
Also, -d $file might work if you know that the current directory is 
$dir, but it seems
safer to me to just give a full path name.

Another way to do it is to spawn a thread and do the command there and
return the pid to the main thread.  That way u can monitor the command and
get it's output.  If it hangs, u can kill it from the other thread.

RE: readdir problem

2006-11-29 Thread h-taguchi
Recently I like to use File::Slurp for read/write files and also dir.

use File::Slurp;
my $dir = shift;
my @files = grep { ! /^\./ and -f $dir . /$_ } read_dir($dir);
print join(\n, @files), \n;

Regards,
HT

My bad - it should just be $file above and the below is correct.

 or just do them both with :
 
   next if -d $dir/$file;

Event Sink script

2006-11-29 Thread h-taguchi
Hello, Sorry to ask again...

Anyone has ever wrote a MS Exchange server's Event Sink script in Perl?
Today I was requested to make a simple one but I don't like to write in
VBScript.

Any information is OK.
Perl cann't be used for Event Sink?

Hirosi Taguti
