RE: [perlce-user] Don't close console / play sound

[Konovalov, V. <vko...@sp...>]

should work both of the followin:
system('\Pocketmusic.exe \file.mp3');
system('\Pocketmusic.exe', '\file.mp3');

'system' call could suspend perl, so you could better use ShellEx instead.

This \xB4 obviously most suspicious. Do you have an idea from where it
comes?

Please send that trivial one-line file to me as attachment.

what does

I suspect an error somewhere else.

Could you cut try running a script with one single line containing duscussed

may be you need to just point full path to executable?

This works:
Win32::ShellEx('\Windows\calc.exe',0);

but 'system' should work as well

What did you tried?

Usually I did not bothered about this because I look at console from PerlIDE
by clicking proper button.
(My newer device does not shows console output BTW)

There is not way to solve your task with command line switches, on the
contrary, there exist only one swith to prevent tat console from appearing
at all.

But you can perform reading from <STDIN>, so perl will not exit until you'll
enter something...

external commands could be executed using either system or using
Win32::ShellEx(.......)
No sounds, until you'll link to some external library, which is possible but
requires recompiling and some development.

[perlce-user] Don't close console / play sound

[Christoph S. <Chr...@nw...>]

Hi, I use perl 5.8.2 on an Ipaq 4700 2003SE.

Perl is running fine, I just have two little questions.

1. Is there a simple solution (e.g. a commandline option) to prevent the console from
closing when the skrip is finished ?

2. How can I play a sound from perl. I tried the print "\a"; stuff, but it didn't work.
I also tried to call an external program via the system command. Does the system command
work at all? I haven't been sucessfull in calling any programm.

Thanks for any help

"socket" trick means you could "dynaload" perl's socket_1.dll despite of
fact there is already loaded system's one.

Do you use modified Dynaloader.pm to support loading of SOCKET_1.DLL?

Is it possible you forgot to write "use Net::HTTP;" ?

BTW currentIy I can't use LWP scripts on my Win32 machine, probably due to
the fact I did not yet bothered to configure networking for Perl proPerly...

as long as it complains about lacking method "configure"  via package
Net::HTTP, what is your lib/Net/HTTP.pm file? Is it exists on that path?
Show us its contents.

And did you made a trick with Socket.dll?

something similar to this...

Yet you could try this this approach with PerlIDE.

RE: [perlce-user] XML::Parser

[Konovalov, V. <vko...@sp...>]

AFAIK it relies on expat, and it is possible to build but I doubt it worth
doing.

Why don't you want to use pure-perl XML parser, there are more than one
available on CPAN?

I gained access to a device equipped with wince4.2 recently.
I found out that existing binaries are working, so you probably do not need
to do recompilation.

However, if you do recompiling, its okay.

Nice to hear this.

BTW desktop tools from Rainer Keuchel also contain an executable to run on
Windows which makes WinCE device to execute some binary.
This is actually one single call however.

As I mentioned, I do not know.
And I have no real possibility to investigate.

The most I can advice for you is to read through SDK documentation provided
with EVC, and, once you'll get C code to solve your task, you'll be able to
create Perl module to do that.

In case you want to know details how to cross-compile Perl module for WinCE,
please refer to http://perlce.sourceforge.net for advice.


In case you find those advices not clear enough, please feel free to send me
improvements :)

[perlce-user] FASD project: Online survey launched

[<ben...@id...>]

Dear Open Source developer

I am doing a research project on "Fun and Software Development" in which I kindly invite you to participate.
You will find the online survey under http://fasd.ethz.ch/qsf/. The questionnaire consists of 53 questions and you will need about 15 minutes to complete it.

With the FASD project (Fun and Software Development) we want to define the motivational significance of fun when software developers decide to engage in Open Source projects. What is special about our research project is that a similar survey is planned with software developers in commercial firms. This procedure allows the immediate comparison between the involved individuals and the conditions of production of these two development models. Thus we hope to obtain substantial new insights to the phenomenon of Open Source Development.


With many thanks for your participation,
Benno Luthiger


PS:
The results of the survey will be published under http://www.isu.unizh.ch/fuehrung/blprojects/FASD/.
We have set up the mailing list fa...@we... for this study. Please see http://fasd.ethz.ch/qsf/mailinglist_en.html for registration to this mailing list.

Probably "system" call blocks something more than just waiting for command
to end, but I have no specific information on this

To summarize a bit, I do not use command invocation from Perl on WinCE, nor
do I advice you to do this way...
If you really need something of that kind on WinCE you should write on C (I
mean XS), but I think this is unlikely.

I can't imagine anything but the simpliset: your DLL is for different
processor (or OS?)
What is name of your processor?

Additionally, are you sure you're executing namely "perl.exe" and not
perl.dll?

Also, pease note that you see below in your list "socket.dll" but it must be

[<sub...@ya...>]

Dear Vadim/Keuchel,

I am working with I830M4 chipset intel motherboard
having  x86 processor.and I am running WindowsCE .Net
4.2  here.The 
board is acting as my windows CE device and i am using
Winxp machine with platform builder 4.2 to build Wince
.net 4.2 and 
dowloded to above device. Now to test the kit i have
client perl script using SOAP:LITE will be running on
winxp and server 
perl script on wince 4.2 which  will call perl test
module.

codes are written below.

RE: [perlce-user] Problems encountered while running Perl Modules in PerlCE

[Konovalov, V. <vko...@sp...>]

All extensions should be cross-compiled during normal nmake process.

That said, firstly miniperl on host machine is created, and then it is used
to facilitate cross-compiling extensions. Below is an excerpt from your
makefile.ce, $(HPERL) means perl on Win2000+. "Extension" target is normally
builded

Extensions: ..\win32\buildext.pl $(PERLDEP) $(CONFIGPM)
	$(HPERL) -I..\lib -I..\win32 -MCross=$(CROSS_NAME)
..\win32\buildext.pl $(MAKE) $(PERLDEP) $(EXTDIR) \
	!POSIX $(NOT_COMPILE_EXT)

Re: [perlce-user] Problems encountered while running Perl Modules in PerlCE

[<cha...@ya...>]

Hi,
Thanks for your help.
we think that io.dll,socket.dll etc has to be rebuilt 
for the wince4.20 x86 platform for running perl
modules on perlCE. 
But it seems that the makefile.ce does not build those
files.
(Pls see our modified makefile attached below.)
We need the source file & makefile for cosscompiling
io.dll,socket.dll,cwd.dll etc for porting perlce to
WinCE 4.20 x86 platform to run perl modules. 
Can anyone please help us on this ?

We are stuck with the error message --
 "cann't load io.dll" 
(126 -ERROR_MOD_NOT_FOUND)
although the specified dll is in specified path.
The other error is "cann't load cwd.dll" 
(193 - ERROR_BAD_EXE_FORMAT).

We also found from the debug log of platform builder
that
"DoImport Failed! Unable to import Library
'WINSOCKM.dll' for 'IO.dll'  "
but there is no file named winsockm.dll !!
 Another error coming in platform builder debug log is
--
 " ERROR: function @ Ordinal 8934 missing in Module
'coredll.dll' "

Can you please tell us where we are going wrong. 

Thanks and Regards,
Anirban

[perlce-user] Problems encountered while running Perl Modules in PerlCE

[<an...@vs...>]

Dear Sir,
We have built perl for windows CE .NET 4.20 on x86 .
and have ported the perl.exe and dll and  executed simple
perl scripts successfully.
We have copied Perl library files(.pm,.pl, .dll etc) to Windows CE target since we need to run perl modules also. 

However while running perl modules We are facing the following problems .

On executing our perl module code in the target we are getting the following error.

"Can't load './auto/IO/IO.dll' for module IO: TCS1 load_file:Error at DynaLoader.pm line 72.
 at IO/Handle.pm line 260

Compilation failed in require at IO/Handle.pm line 260.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at IO/Handle.pm line 260.
Compilation failed in require at IO/Socket.pm line 11.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at IO/Socket.pm line 11.
Compilation failed in require at HTTP/Daemon.pm line 10.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at HTTP/Daemon.pm line 10.
Compilation failed in require at SOAP/Transport/HTTP.pm line 360."

We copied IO.dll from perl library of winXP to the specified 
path in target CE but it did not work out. 
We also tried the io.dll fom the precompiled
distribution available in perlCE souceforge site but ended up with the same error

We found the root cause : in cewin32.c (source file for celib.dll ) 
LoadLibraryW call inside XCELoadLibraryA returns null.  
we think windows CE fails to recognise the dll copied from winXP perl.
But from the readme.ce it seems that the same xs dlls like cwd.dll,IO.dll,
socket.dll are to be copied from perl library of winXP to the specified 
path in target CE. 
are we going wrong ? or are we to build the IO.dll etc for target platform ? 
We did not find the source from which we can build these dlls for target platform.
 
We are stuck at this problem for quite some time now . Can you pls help us in this ?
 
Thank you for giving your precious time.

Regards
Anirban Gomes

you must start with doing somehow that way for perl.dll to exist on your
device, otherwise you will fail.

cecopy and cemkdir are used to create directory and file copies on WinCE
device, those were downloaded from Rainer's site but those are just trivial
and could be easily built by anyone.

but it is okay to, say, just directly unpack your files using your big PC
where you could operate your CompactFlash driver, for example.

you can try installing, say, perl-5.6.0 for WinCE from Rainer's site. Just
to see how it goes.
