CPAN::SHell->expand

All When using CPAN::Shell->expand within a perl script to install modules directly off CPAN, is there a way to force the install to 'follow' prerequisite Modules? Regards Marty ___ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://listserv.Acti

RE: [Perl-unix-users] Checking if a module is installed

ops. ok I worked it out I changed the following code in the loop. foreach my $mod ( @modules ) { $string="require $mod"; eval {eval ($string);}; if ($@) { my $obj = CPAN::Shell->expand('Module',$mod); $obj->install } }

[Perl-unix-users] Checking if a module is installed

All, I've devised the following script to check if a CPAN module is installed on a machine, and install it if it isn't. The only problem is, the eval always fails and says it can't find the module, and thus always installs it. Also if I use "use" instead of "Require" it gives me compilation errors

RE: [Perl-unix-users] memory usage of perl processes

I guess you could use 'top' in a unix window. Then kick off 1 drone only and look at the memory usage. Then * it by the number of processes you expect. 55 is a lot of processes On Any unix system. Perhaps you could stagger the number of processes. so maybe spawn 30 drones and have each drone

[Perl-unix-users] memory usage of perl processes

I'm sure this comes up frequently, so I apoligize... I am designing a system to process almost 4000 remote sites in a nightly sweep. This process is controlled from a database which maintains site status in realtime (or at least that's the goal). I am attempting to fork off around 100 "drones"
