Hi, I''ve commited win32-file update for FileSecurity DACLs Added some constants, three singleton functions, and test code. Calling Syntax is like this: Win32::File.set_permission(''filename'',{''Everyone''=>Win32::File::FULL, ''NT AUTHORITY\\SYSTEM''=>Win32::File::CHANGE,

I''ve got a (broken) version of File.set_permissions in CVS, and I need some help finishing it off please. Heesob, can you take a look? Thanks, Dan

Hi folks, I''ve got most everything done for the pure Ruby version of win32-file. The last thing left (since I''ll be moving the IO methods to a different package eventually) is the file security stuff. Here''s what I''ve got so far for the get_permissions method. However, I''m stuck at GetAce(). If someone could help me finish up this method, I

Hi all, As things stand now, to get the ACL for a file, it''s a two step process: File.get_permissions("some_file").each{ |acct,perm| p acct p File.securities(perm) } I was thinking of merging these two calls into one so that it would return a hash, with the account as the key, and the value would be an array of access rights. Or possibly an array of ACLStruct''s

I have a really silly question... but just want to ask... I have one box on my home network that is x86_64 capable... My other boxes are all i386. As this x86_64 machine can, at most, house 4 GB of RAM (currently only has 1 GB) - is there any advantage to my running x86_64 on that machine instead of i386... Long story as to why I am asking - but before I go off and moveit down to i386 -

Hi, It looks like the current wait() method is actually a mix of wait and waitpid. Should we break this down into wait and waitpid for win32, just to keep the API consistent with the Unix version? Mind you, I''m not sure what flags, if any, would be valid for Win32 with regards to waitpid. Also, is wait2 a possibility? Regards, Dan

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 all, A user recently ran into an issue with win32-eventlog and the EventLog#read method when reading a saved log file. It seems that there''s an issue. After some experimentation I found that the problem seems to be that the initial buffer to ReadEventLog() in line 558 is too small, so it tries a second call to ReadEventLog() with a larger buffer. The problem is that, after I

OK, I'm a noob to Wine. I've figured some stuff out with Wine and it sees everything I want it to see just fine. OK, I understand why you don't want Wine to see your windows install, but I put all my program installs on a separate partition. Now with this in mind can I just have Wine look at my Program Files and run my apps from there, or do I have to reinstall all the apps I want

I'm using spec for multivariate time series, and have a question about "coh". This is probably a very silly question, but I'm a bit stumped. >From the documentation: Column i + (j - 1) * (j - 2)/2 of coh contains the squared coherency between columns i and j of x, where i > j. What's in column 1 of coh? Cheers Jason -- Indigo Industrial Controls Ltd.

Maybe this is a silly question, but i have a few million files i need to delete but i can't just reformat the volume. Right now the fastest thing i can think of is nice -20 rm -Rf /folder-i-want-to-delete is there a better or faster way to do this? Thanks, Jamie

Russ, > Sorry for the cross post, but this is an important > one potentially affecting all recipients. Why be sorry? Did you break a rule? Where is the rule? It seems that there is a rule, but the rule gives if the matter is important enough. But you have to say "Sorry"? It seems that when a matter comes up that is important enough to inform everyone, one MUST cross post

Ok, so this may be silly question, but I can't find the answer anywhere I've looked. I have Samba up and running. I have manually added users and all are working great. My question is simple, whats the easiest way to add users? If they exist inthe /etc/passwd file, I suppose that running "smbpasswd -a username" is the best option to add the user... Can this be done via any

Hi netters, This is probably a silly question,but I can't find the answer after searching the R-help archives online. ok, I have a matrix. I know there is a "10" somewhere in it. Now I want to know the index of the element "10" in this matrix. That is, if X[i,j]=10, I want to know i and j. Is there a R function to do this? Just like the "find" function in

Sorry I have a very simple question: I used somers2 function from Design package: > z<- somers2(x,y, weights=w) results are: >z C Dxy n Missing 0.88 0.76 500 0.00 Now I want to call only the value of C to be used in further analyses, but I fail to do it. I have tried: > z$C NULL > z[,C] Error in z[,C]: incorrect number of dimensions and some other silly

Hi all, The following code snippet isn''t working terribly well for me. I can get the Bias, StandardName and DaylightName, but everything else is goofed up. The alignment seems ok, but maybe I''ve missed something or maybe I have to do extra work to unpack the SYSTEMTIME structures. require ''windows/time'' include Windows::Time buf = 0.chr * 172 #
