Re: Win32::API and Unicode filenames

2005-06-18 Thread Siebe Tolsma
I've uploaded the modules Win32::Unicode::File and
Win32::Unicode::File::Ops, you can get a copy (zipped) right here:
http://siebe.bot2k3.net/perl/Win32.zip. The modules themselves are pretty
simple, but do the job I needed to do very well. The perlify() code is
largely (if not entirely) based on a solution given to me by Jan. There are
only a couple of slight adjustments because I already had a normal
CreateFile() handle open.

I'm still working on it (adding some more things like fstat()). If anyone
knows of functions in the Win32 API that I could extend it with, please be
my guest and tip me off. Other comments & improvements are welcome as well
:)

Thanks all for the feedback.

I've fixed my implementation with a little bit of help with Jan Dubois (he
indirectly tipped me off to use a null character at the end of the string,
which worked). I've improved my module a bit with some things from Bill
Luebkert's implementation.

Also, as Jan pointed out to me, it might be smart to have the module also
work on Perl filehandle level. Therefor I've also added a perlify()
subroutine which seems to work.

Thanks all!

Well, not by default, but you can work around this.  Check out:

Win32::API and Unicode filenames

2005-06-17 Thread Siebe Tolsma



Hello!
 
Considering Perl cannot open files with Unicode 
filenames by default I decided to create a Win32 module which imports functions 
like CreateFileW from kernel32.dll and let it write/read files through that. The 
OS I am writing this for will always be Windows, and in all cases >= 2K (so 
2K, XP, 2K3, etc). I have no interest in supporting older systems like 9x and NT 
(yet?). I've already implemented a some of the functions (fopen, fclose, fread, 
fwrite, fseek) and the basic thing works, but, there is one "slight" 
problem/oddity.
 
I have the following code:
 
my $fname = pack("H*", 
"e68aa5e7bab82e706c");   $fname = decode("utf8", 
$fname);   $fname = encode("UTF-16LE", $fname);
 
# Open a file handle to the file 
:)if(fopen(\my $fh, ">", $fname)) { # Fails!
 
This however fails miserably, with an error that 
it cannot create the file (even though it is UTF-16LE, which is supposely the 
encoding used on NTFS). But, when I bump in a "print" in the middle it works 
like a charm (creates the file, then later on in the if() block writes "Hello World!" to it).. This, to me, 
is very odd because "print" shouldn't do anything with the variable (but when 
using non-Unicode filenames the print is not required and everything runs 
OK!):
 
my $fname = pack("H*", 
"e68aa5e7bab82e706c");   $fname = decode("utf8", 
$fname);   $fname = encode("UTF-16LE", $fname);
 
print 
"$fname\n";
 
# Open a file handle to the file 
:)if(fopen(\my $fh, ">", $fname)) { # Works?!
 
Does anyone have a solution to this of the top of 
their head? I've included the fopen() subroutine for reference. The __mode() sub simply converts the mode types like 
">" and "<" to their corrosponding LONG values. $apis is an array reference filled with the APIs I use 
(I didn't want the imported functions directly into the modules 
namespace).
 
Any help would be appreciated! :)
