I was wondering if people would be interested in wrapping msi.dll functionality, I''ve started writing a small library to enable enumeration of products installed via Windows Installer using win32api (I know I can also query via win32ole to win32_product but I don''t seem to get all the properties that are in msi.h). It''s a little messy, and I''ve not got far as

I''m evaluating FXRuby for my application. So far everything is going pretty well. The news on the book is good, but I wish it were available today! First off, I''m not much of a Windows programmer (that''s what makes FXRuby so valuable to me). I''m using win32ole to interface to a custom ocx. Calling methods of the ocx works fine. Now I need to receive event

Hi all, I committed win32-driveinfo 0.1.0 to CVS. What is it? =========== A class for getting information of drives Synopsis ======== include Win32::DriveInfo (sectorsPerCluster, bytesPerSector, numberOfFreeClusters, totalNumberOfClusters, freeBytesAvailableToCaller, totalNumberOfBytes, totalNumberOfFreeBytes) = getDriveSpace(''c'').to_a

Hi all, I was just reading my "Python Programming on Win32" and I saw how easy it was to setup a COM server and a class. I tried to download Ralph Mason''s rubycom package, but the link is dead. I''ve emailed Ralph, but if rubycom isn''t being maintained any more, I think we should work on a COM/DCOM interface next. Or, is this already possible with

Hi all, Just looking over fole_s_connect() in win32ole.c and I noticed this bit: hr = CLSIDFromProgID(pBuf, &clsid); ... hr = GetActiveObject(&clsid, 0, &pUnknown); ... hr = pUnknown->lpVtbl->QueryInterface( pUnknown, &IID_IDispatch, (void **)&pDispatch ); Using win32-api, that would be something like: IID_IUnknown =

Hi everyone, So, who wants to rewrite the WIN32OLE library? I think I''ve got most everything you''ll need in the windows-pr library, such as Windows::COM::Automation, Windows::Error, etc. I can add anything that''s missing. Advantages include: * No compiler required * Easier to debug * A potentially better and more flexible interface * The current WIN32OLE library is

For future reference, it looks like we should avoid DONT_RESOLVE_DLL_REFERENCES in any extensions. http://weblogs.asp.net/oldnewthing/archive/2005/02/14/372266.aspx Regards, Dan

Another nicety may be handling network drives. I''ve been using a ruby script which manipulate using the "net use" command to map network drives, disconnect network drives, query to see what drives are connected, etc..., but it''d be sweet if this type of functionality was included in win32 package. Maybe usage like: nd = Win32::NetworkDrive.new(

Is there (if not, can we get) the functionality to query for workstations in the local workgroup or domain? Zach

hi, I use R - 2.15(32bit), and want to make a code to clear a console.

Greetings all. I have some controller code that uses win32ole (only available on windows). This code is now solid, and I''d now like to resume development on (any) other OS(grin). But alas, the controller bails because the OS specific library can''t be found. Can I conditionally specify action code compilation (and a require ''win32ole'') based on OS or

I?ve been using this routine for several years. I?m sorry, I don?t remember where I got it. It works as it should, viz. it blanks the R console. But it requires package rcom and now that requires rscproxy. cls <- function () { require(rcom) wsh <- comCreateObject("Wscript.Shell") comInvoke(wsh, "SendKeys", "\f") invisible(wsh) } > cls()
