Hi all, Thanks to Wayne and Park, I''ve got something like this now: static VALUE file_set_compressed(VALUE self, VALUE rbBool){ HANDLE h; BOOL rv; DWORD dwBytesReturned; int fn; USHORT inBuf = COMPRESSION_FORMAT_DEFAULT; if((rbBool != Qtrue) && (rbBool != Qfalse)){ rb_raise(rb_eTypeError,"Argument must be true or false"); }

Hi all, >You have missed & before inBuf. D''oh! Odd that I didn''t get a warning. >Here is my modified version: It worked, but it seems to eliminate the file''s contents in the process. I''ve tried various flags with no luck. Any ideas? Regards, Dan

Hi, >It worked, but it seems to eliminate the file''s contents in the process. >I''ve tried various flags with no luck. What do you mean by that? Here is my sample code and it worked fine. require ''win32/file'' f = File.open("c:/test","a") f.puts "test" f.compressed = true f.close Regards, Park Heesob --MIME

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

I''ve finished updating all the packages for now. All the sample scripts for all the packages have been moved to doc/examples. So, things should be stable for a while. Shanko, any chance of creating new installer based on the current releases? Dan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

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, 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 all, The topic of creating a unified API for open3 for Windows came up at RubyConf 2004 this year. Park, I was wondering if you would mind if we modified win32_popen so that the API matches the open3 library that ships with Ruby. This also means deciding whether or not to leave in the open2, open4, and posix stuff. I guess it doesn''t hurt to leave this in, although Open3.open4

Excellent! Like I said, I really need to do some code cleanup. I''ll also be adding the config_group and config_user methods :) Dan -----Original Message----- From: Date, Shashank [Non-Employee] [mailto:Shashank.Date@mail.sprint.com] Sent: Monday, March 01, 2004 10:19 AM To: Berger, Daniel Subject: RE: [Win32utils-devel] RE: win32etc test failure That worked !

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, I''m going over win32-file this weekend. I''m creating instance methods for setting (or unsetting) the various file attributes. So, you can do something like: f = File.open("foo.txt") f.archive = true f.hidden = true f.close This works for the basic attributes, but it requires extra work for others. Specifically, I am having trouble trying to set the

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 }

While working on win32-service-0.3.0 I got hung up trying to resolve that "RPC server is unavailable" error message that was popping up on some systems. I couldn''t duplicate this on my XP Pro box, but it does show up on my Win2k box. Quick review - this is the test case from tc_service.rb def test_services assert_nothing_raised{ Service.services{ } }

Hello Chad, I installed and tried out rubygems for one of the win32-utils projects named win32-mmap. This is on Win XP (Home). Here is how I did it but got some errors (see at the end).

Hi, I''ve got a preliminary version of the pure Ruby version of win32-dir in CVS. However, I was hoping to work out the Unicode issue. Run this: from = "C:\\test" to = "?????" Dir.mkdir(from) unless File.exists?(from) Dir.create_junction(to, from) It works, but my explorer (and dos) window shows the name garbled. I don''t think it''s a font
