similar to: win32-ipc idea - allow a block

Does this look right? The places to look are wait and wait_for_multiple (which I modified to take the class as an argument, so that I could yield).

Either I''ve been up too late, or the timeout value passed to Ipc.new isn''t actually saved anywhere. Am I wrong? Anyway, I''ve added docs and a test suite for win32-ipc. Feel free to take a look and make sure there aren''t any glaring errors. Thanks. Dan PS - I''m hoping to release win32-event 0.2.0 and win32-ipc 0.1.0 this weekend unless there are

Hi all, I recently had a question on win32-event and win32-ipc on IRC, so I thought I should get around to documenting it. I had a couple questions, though. First, what does one do with an IPC object? I originally thought this would be a module that you mixed in but it appears to be a class. Second, does anyone have a good example of how to use win32-event (using the CVS version)? I

Hi all, I''m trying to build a gemspec for win32-ipc, using a precompiled binary. Here''s my gemspec file: #win32-ipc.gemspec require "rubygems" spec = Gem::Specification.new do |s| s.name = "win32-ipc" s.version = "0.3.1" s.platform = Gem::Platform::WIN32 s.summary = "A base class for Win32 synchronization objects."

Dan, I am assuming that the version in CVS is the most current one. Report follows. -- shanko ------------------------------------------------------ C:\win32utils\win32-service\test>ruby tc_service.rb This test will stop and start your Clipboard service, as well as pause and resume your Schedule service. This is harmless unless you are actually using these services at the moment you

Well, I''m going to release the first version of win32-taskscheduler today. For now, I''ve kept the API about the same as it originally was because I was spending way too much time futzing around and I wanted to get something out the door. For now, I''m calling this a BETA release, with the API subject to change. See the ''Future Plans'' section of

Hi all, I noticed this warning coming out of win32-ipc when built with -W3: c:\eclipse\workspace\win32-ipc\ipc.h(74) : warning C4146: unary minus operator applied to unsigned type, result still un signed Are we just trying to get an absolute value there? Just curious. I don''t want to break anything. I''m actually going through all the win32utils packages, compiling with

Hi all, Well, what''s in CVS at the moment is what I''m planning on releasing tomorrow, unless anyone has any objection. Please test, check out the docs, etc. Let me know if there''s anything fatal I''m missing. Regards, Dan

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!

Hmm...what about creating the block in the constructor? e = Event.new{ puts "Hello" } e.set(0) -> "Hello" e.close Well, I''ll try to hang out on IRC this weekend much of the time if anyone wants to join me to discuss this in more detail. Look for me in #ruby-lang or #win32 on freenode.irc.net Dan

Hi all, I''ve been going through the various IPC modules for Win32Utils and converting them to pure Ruby. I''m almost done with win32-mutex, but I can''t get the example to work. I keep getting this error: C:/Documents and Settings/djberge/workspace/win32-mutex/examples/mutex_test.rb:41: undefined method `+'' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from

Hi, I''ve released win32-changenotify 0.3.0 today. Take a look.

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, 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

Is there anything in the utils to capture a screen ( or maybe just a window) and save to a file.
