Getting started with DBM-like packages under Win32

2004-02-17 Thread Michael C. Davis
Hi, I'm looking at alternatives for light-weight database/record indexing
packages for use with Perl on Win32 and I wonder if someone could get me
started in the right direction.

Based on initial reading it looks like this is the situation (please
correct me if I'm wrong)

- SDBM (SDBM_File) comes with Perl in entirity, everything you need, but
the key+record size is limited to 1008 bytes max.
- Berkeley DB (DB_File): Perl includes the interface but not the
functionality.  Berkeley DB for Win32 can be downloaded separately, and is
free for non-commercial but paid for commercial use.
- NDBM (NDBM_File): Perl interface but not functionality can be downloaded
from CPAN.  Win32 users are basically out of luck on this one ( true )
- ODBM is mentioned in the documentation but does not appear to differ
significantly from these other alternatives.
- GDBM (GDBM_File): Perl interface but not functionality.  Libraries for
Win32 can be downloaded from the SourceForge GnuWin32 project.  Not clear
whether the linkage from Perl code to GDBM libraries is complete.

GDBM is to me the most attractive of these alternatives.  Has anyone used
GDBM with Perl and Win32 and, if so, can you describe what you had to do to
make it work?  I'm guessing that if I could just tell Perl how to find the
DLL it would work out just fine ...

Thanks very much in advance.

Download the Process Explorer tool.  It's invaluable and great!!  :-)
They have lots of other great tools which are worth the download as well.

Hope that helps.

Subject: Help with Apache on Win32


Hi, I'm running Apache with mod_perl on win32, the Perl being ActiveState
5.8.0 build 806.  All this is working fine.  

My question has to do with detecting hanging processes.  I can tell I have
hanging processes (at times) because my CPU monitor pegs at 100%, and
netstat shows TIME_WAIT connections from myself to myself, yet when I used
Ctrl+ATL+DEL nothing unusual shows on the list.  

Can anyone suggest a freeware or shareware tool that gives a more complete
list of running processes?  Or a better way to use what comes with Windows
(Win98 in my case)?

TIA.
