similar to: Some more win32-changenotify analysis

Hi all, I know it''s deprecated, but people seem to still be using win32-changenotify, so I thought I''d see if I could make it pure Ruby. Also, I thought it would be a good opportunity to test passing a custom Win32::Event object. I''m mostly done I think, but I''m having trouble unraveling the FILE_NOTIFY_INFORMATION struct buffer. Please check out the

Hi all, I''ve checked in some code to win32-changenotify. Unfortunately, it doesn''t work right. I need some help. I don''t understand what, exactly, I''m supposed to pass to ReadDirectoryChangesW() for the 2nd argument, nor how to read the data back out. There''s also a WCHAR issue that needs to be worked out with regards to the FileName

Hi all, Ruby 1.8.5 win32-ipc 0.4.2 (or 0.5.0 in cvs) win32-changenotify 0.4.2 I noticed something strange tonight while tinkering with win32-changenotify. Here''s my sample script: # cntest.rb require ''win32/changenotify'' include Win32 path = "C:\\test" filter = ChangeNotify::FILE_NAME | ChangeNotify::DIR_NAME cn = ChangeNotify.new(path, true, filter)

Hi all, As things stand now, you can do something like this with win32-changenotify: require "win32/changenotify" include Win32 filter = ChangeNotify::FILE_NAME | ChangeNotify::DIR_NAME | ChangeNotify::LAST_WRITE cn = ChangeNotify.new("c:\\",false,filter){ puts "Something changed" } cn.wait You can pass a block that''s executed when a change occurs, but

Hi, Try as I might, I just cannot get Dir.create_junction to work with FFI in the ffi branch of the win32-dir project. The problem is the REPARSE_JDATA_BUFFER struct. I''m just not sure how to set those members, specifically, the PathBuffer member. The target looks good, it''s UTF-16LE encoded, but I can''t make it work, despite trying several ways of defining the struct,

Hi all, Ok, what am I doing wrong here? require ''windows/device_io'' require ''windows/handle'' require ''windows/error'' include Windows::DeviceIO include Windows::Handle include Windows::Error fh = File.open(''test.txt'') # Assume you have this handle = get_osfhandle(fh.fileno) if handle == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE puts

Hi all, How does this look as a general approach to a SID.create method: # Creates and initializes def self.create(authority, *sub_authorities) if sub_authorities.length > 8 raise ArgumentError, ''maximum of 8 subauthorities allowed'' end authorities = Array.new(8, 0) authorities.replace(sub_authorities) count = authorities.select{ |e| e > 0 }.size

Hi all, Windows XP Pro Ruby 1.8.2 I''m having a couple of problems with the following service. The first issue is that the code in service_start doesn''t seem to fire off. The second problem is that any attempt to do ''require "webrick"'' within webrick_daemon.rb causes the service to fail on start. Any ideas? # webrickctl.rb

I would like to figure out the equations for calculating "AIC" in both "step() function" and "AIC () function". They are different. Then I just type "step" in the R console, and found the "AIC" used in "step() function" is "extractAIC". I went to the R help, and found: "The criterion used is AIC = - 2*log L + k *

Hi all, I''m trying to get the allocation size of a file via a file handle (rather than its name). The example below works for FileNameInformation but I can''t get it to work as expected for FileStandardInformation. Here''s some sample code: # query_test.rb require ''windows/handle'' require ''windows/error'' include Windows::Handle

Hi, I''ve been using FFI with a Ruby 1.9.3 built with MSVC++ and it''s been working well. One thing I''ve run into though is this: ffi_lib :msvcrt But that''s not the runtime I want. But I don''t want to hard code the runtime name either. I realize I could parse it out of RbConfig, but I was hoping for something nicer. Is there a way we could create an

Greetings again, I am experiencing a lockup when ghost casting about 1 out of 5 client machines locks up. I don't recall if I was having this issue when I was using 3com pxe menus or not. I was wondering if the issue I am seeing could be caused by pxelinux since it basically is loading a Linux kernel then booting a MSDos.imz file. I cannot find any errors from the ghostcast side or the

Hi everyone, I see that Visual Studio 2008 Pro has the ability to auto-format code. Does anyone know if there''s a way to auto-format pre-ansi C code to ANSI C? I couldn''t find anything, but there''s so many options in VS I wasn''t sure. Regards, Dan This communication is the property of Qwest and may contain confidential or privileged information.

Hi, I added the Windows::WSA module to windows-pr recently (it''s in the latest git repo). However, I can''t seem to make WSAStartup work. I tried the following bit of code, only to get "The Windows Sockets version requested is not supported" on my Vista box. Is it really not supported on Vista? The docs say Win2k or later. Or is there another issue? require
