Re: Passing command line options with ActivePerl
Do you have another program in your path called 'test'? (e.g. some shells have a built-in called 'test' - and its an obvious name (though a bad idea) to use on many projects). Can you run 'which test' - to see where your machine thinks 'test' is? Or can you run '.\test 1 2 3.? I only mention this as once - many years ago - I wasted a whole day on something exactly like this. Frank D. Gunseor wrote: I have often wondered about this, too. On an W2k box and an XP box running ActivePerl redirection sometimes only works when the perl executable is explicity stated on the command line. ???

Re: Passing command line options with ActivePerl
Paul, try modifying the "PATHEXT" environment variable to include .pl. (add
a semicolon, followed by .pl)
To temporarily set it you can enter this at a command prompt:
set PATHEXT=%PATHEXT%;.PL
To set it permanently go into the control panel and the system applet.
When you do this you don't even have to enter the .pl extension, just "test"
is enough to run your script, and the parameters are properly passed.
gerry

Re: Passing command line options with ActivePerl
Hi Bill,
Thanks, it work when I prefix it with "perl", e.g.:
c:\>perl test.pl 1 2
1
2
C:\>
Ideally I'd want to get around this so I only to type the name of the
script. Do you know if there's a way of confuring Windows to relay the
command line args if the program is called using a file extension (.pl)
association?
Cheers,
Paul

Try explicitly calling Perl (depending on which Windoze & shell, you may be
able to properly associate Perl to .pl and getting the results you wanted)
:
perl test.pl 1 2

Try explicitly calling Perl (depending on which Windoze & shell, you may be
able to properly associate Perl to .pl and getting the results you wanted) :
perl test.pl 1 2

Passing command line options with ActivePerl
Hi,
I've having trouble passing command line arguements to perl scripts written
in ActivePerl (v5.8.3). When I run the following script under linux, it
outputs my command line args as expected e.g.:
---snip---
#/use/bin/perl
#test.pl
foreach (@ARGV) {
print("$_\n");
}
---snip---
produces:
# c:\test.pl 1 2
1
2
#
But the same script under ActivePerl doesn't, e.g
---snip---
#!c:\ActivePerl\perl\bin\perl
#test.pl
foreach (@ARGV) {
print("$_\n");
}
---snip---
C:\>test.pl 1 2
C:\>
Does ActivePerl handle passing command line arguments differently?
Thanks,
Paul
