I get the following error when trying to compile: win32-changejournal-0.2.0-1 on: Windows 2000, Service Pack 4 Microsoft Visual Studio 6 Any ideas?

Hi all, Dave Burt mentioned the possibility of adding symlinks to the Dir class. http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/source/misc.shtml#junction There is also Autrijus Tang''s symlink Perl module at http://search.cpan.org/~autrijus/Win32-Symlink-0.04/ Looks easy enough, but it only seems to work for directories, not regular files. Should we add this to the Directory class, or simply

I tried to download/compile/install win32-dir, but I couldn''t get it to go. Over a private email Daniel Berger had me... "Curious. What platform are you on exactly? Try modifying the extconf.rb file. Add ''have_library("SHFolder")'' above ''have_library("shell32")''. If that doesn''t work, try uncommenting the other

Dan, Do you know when the next release of win32-dir is going to be available. I really would like to rely on it for the junction capability that Timothy Byrd posted. =) Thanks, Zach

Hi all, Should we make the same change for win32-changejournal that we made for win32-changenotify (i.e yield an array of structs rather than a single struct)? Any objections?

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

Dan/Park, What are your thoughts about implemented portion of the win32utils family that are written in ruby utilizing WIN32OLE. I have found myself writing decent amount of ruby code accessing the Windows Scripting Host (WSH) object models. I have a few scripts which could be added. I do not believe the functionality is currently available with win32utils: - map network drives -

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''ve logged a new bug for win32-eventlog based on Joey Gibson''s ruby talk post (116528). Park, I''ve assigned it to you for now, figuring that you''re probably the one who best knows how to fix it. All help welcome. Dan

Hi all, Just wanted to let you know that I released 0.3.1 last night. This addresses Bug #712 and incorporates Patches #1087 and #1137 (thanks Aslak). I''ll try to get an open4 implementation out this weekend, though I noticed that Aslak''s patch is different than what Park originally had, so I''ll have to decide which I prefer, or if they can be blended somehow.

Hi all, I''m forwarding this message from Brian Marick. If you run this test script and then paste the results into a Unicode aware text editor, you''ll notice that it only prints one character instead of three. I tried changing the strlen to _tcslen and strcpy to _tcscpy, but that didn''t help. I mucked around a bit with the MultiByteToWideChar function, too, but

Hi all, Ruby 1.8.1 (hand built, not the installer) Windows 2000 I was just playing with win32-mmap. I tried running the test_server.rb and test_client.rb. I started the server, which seems to be fine, but when I run the client I get this: C:\eclipse\workspace\win32-mmap-0.1.0\test>ruby test_client.rb C:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/ftools.rb:23:in `initialize'': Permission denied -

Hi all, I''ve checked in some semi-working code into CVS for win32-thread. I don''t really expect this to ever work properly, given that the Ruby interpreter itself isn''t thread safe, but I thought it was fun to tinker. Anyway, with that in mind, give the following a shot: require "win32/thread" t = Win32::Thread.new{ puts "hello" sleep 2 }

Hi all, This is odd. It looks to me like we have all 4 variations of memcpy set in Windows::MSVCRT::Buffer but somehow this one creeps up. I actually noticed it in a few cases with that earlier mmap sub/replace example, but I wasn''t sure what was happening. Note that windows-api 0.2.3 and windows-pr-0.8.3 are the latest versions in CVS, but this happens with windows-api-0.2.2 and

Hi all, I released win32-eventlog 0.4.5 today. It''s still a bit on the slow side. The profiler (and general testing) indicates that it''s line 696 that''s the major culprit: va_list = str.split(0.chr)[0...num] Other than changing 0.chr to a literal "\0", does anyone have a way to speed this up? It''s not crucial, but I thought it might make a nice

It compiles fine, but when the resulting library is required, it says: C:\_co\source\build\ruby\extensions\win32-service-0.4.5\test>ruby tc_daemon.rb C:/_co/source/build/ruby/extensions/win32-service-0.4.5/win32/service.so: `interactive?'' is not proper name for a struct member (NameError) from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:18:in

I''ve commited code for win32-etc 0.2.2, which adds the configure_user and configure_group methods. Testing appreciated. On my home system, I can''t get configure_user to work, but I haven''t any real idea why it fails. The configure_group method seems to work fine, however.
