similar to: win32-dir, now in CVS

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? Thanks, Zach ----- ERROR BELOW----- C:\unzipped\win32-changejournal-0.2.0-1\win32-changejournal-0.2.0>nmake Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 6.00.9782.0 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1988-1998.

Hi all, In lieu of Timothy''s pure Ruby junction code, and Zach''s VC++ 6 issues, I decided to just rewrite the dang thing in pure Ruby using Win32API. That will solve''s Zach''s problem and make it easier to add Timothy''s code, which I plan to add (slightly modified) to the 0.2.0 release. The code is below. One thing I have a question about is how to

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?

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

Heesob, Can you please alter win32-changejournal to return an array of structs as you did for win32-changenotify? Thanks. Dan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

Hi all, I realized the current implmentation has a problem - you can only get the last value set? I realized, after looking at the old C code, that it actually stores values in a hash and marshals the hash, not the values themselves. That seemed clunky to me, though. I thought it would be more interesting if we just marshalled the entire mmap object and passed that back and forth.

Hi all, I''m seeing strange behavior with net-ping on Windows, which uses win32-open3 (Open3.popen3) behind the scenes. Download (or checkout) net-ping and run this: ruby -Ilib test\tc_pingexternal.rb It looks like the test suite is running twice. What''s happening?

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

All, Currently, the Win32::API.new method will search for the function name, then the ''A'' (ANSI) name, and finally the ''W'' (Wide) name. The code looks something like this: fProc = GetProcAddress(hLibrary, TEXT(RSTRING(v_proc)->ptr)); if(!fProc){ VALUE v_ascii = rb_str_new3(v_proc); v_ascii = rb_str_cat(v_ascii, "A", 1); fProc =

Hi all, It seems that a void prototype requires an explicit argument in our version of win32/api: C:\>irb irb(main):001:0> require ''win32/api'' => true irb(main):002:0> include Win32 => Object irb(main):003:0> require ''Win32API'' => true # Our version irb(main):004:0> GetLastErrorA = API.new(''GetLastError'',

Hi all, I''m preparing win32-service for an 0.5.1 release. I''ve made a couple minor changes and altered the test suite a bit. It passes on my box here, except that about half the time I get this error: 1) Error: test_services(TC_Win32Service): Win32::ServiceError: OpenService() call failed: The handle is invalid. test/tc_service.rb:227:in `services''

I can''t get mongrel installed on a Win XP. I keep getting some unknown error with this "win32-service-0.5.2". While it states results are logged, the file is empty - not much help. I even tried complete uninstall of ruby and reinstalled ruby 1.8.5-21. But no luck. Oddly, I had no problem installing earlier on a Win 2K machine. Is there something special about XP? here

Hi all, I''ve narrowed down one more problem for cygwin/mingw. For win32-shortcut, it appears that you need to add "-luuid" to $LIBS. Once Takaaki tried that, it worked. How does this look for the extconf.rb for win32-shortcut? # extconf.rb require "mkmf" require "ftools" if RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /cygwin|mingw/i CONFIG["CC"] = "g++"

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

Hi all, I *finally* committed the patch from Patrick Hurley (you know, the one he submitted way back in June). Looks like it works. I''ve also revamped the code under the examples directory. There''s now a tdaemon.rb (the test daemon) and tdaemon_ctl.rb (the test daemon controller). Before I release this into the wild I want to make sure I document how to use it properly.

Hi all, I''ve committed what I think is a complete version of win32-process in pure Ruby. The new version is in the toplevel CVS directory. You''ll need to grab the latest windows-pr from CVS as well. If there are any errors, or any comments that are incorrect, please let me know. Otherwise, I''m planning on a release this weekend. Thanks, Dan
