Hi all, Windows XP Pro Ruby 1.8.2 I''m having a couple of problems with the following service. The first issue is that the code in service_start doesn''t seem to fire off. The second problem is that any attempt to do ''require "webrick"'' within webrick_daemon.rb causes the service to fail on start. Any ideas? # webrickctl.rb

Hi, Windows Vista Home Premium ruby 1.9.2dev (2009-07-18 trunk 24186) [i386-mswin32_90] I noticed there was an ordinal bug in win32-security and Ruby 1.9.x. I fixed those easily enough, but now we''re left with this: 1) Error: test_string_to_sid(TC_Win32_Security_Sid): ArgumentError: invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII

Hi all, How does this look as a general approach to a SID.create method: # Creates and initializes def self.create(authority, *sub_authorities) if sub_authorities.length > 8 raise ArgumentError, ''maximum of 8 subauthorities allowed'' end authorities = Array.new(8, 0) authorities.replace(sub_authorities) count = authorities.select{ |e| e > 0 }.size

Hi, I believe this patch would be a perfect solution for a lengthy initialization application.

Hi all, I decided to check the responsiveness of the pure Ruby vs C extension versions of win32-changenotify. I setup this little file generator program: a = [] 10.times{ |n| a << Thread.new{ File.open("File_#{n}", ''w''){ |fh| fh.puts "test #{n}" } } } a.each{ |t| t.join } The pure Ruby version did not do so well. In some cases it

Hi all, I''ve got overlapped and offset support in both nread and nwrite. The only thing left before I want to release this (as 0.4.0) is to get NO_BUFFERING to work. Unfortunately, I can''t get it to work. Park, I looked at that site you sent (and borrowed some code from it), but I don''t see anything special happening for NO_BUFFERING. I thought it required

Hi Park, I tried your latest patch and ran the sample code: readPipe, writePipe = IO.pipe t = Thread.new{ sleep 5 while true sleep 0.1 puts "got #{readPipe.readline.length} bytes" end } i = 1 while true i += 1 sleep 1 puts "hello from main" if i > 3 writePipe.puts "a"*2048 end end t.join At the console I typed the

Hi, Try as I might, I just cannot get Dir.create_junction to work with FFI in the ffi branch of the win32-dir project. The problem is the REPARSE_JDATA_BUFFER struct. I''m just not sure how to set those members, specifically, the PathBuffer member. The target looks good, it''s UTF-16LE encoded, but I can''t make it work, despite trying several ways of defining the struct,

Hi all, I know it''s deprecated, but people seem to still be using win32-changenotify, so I thought I''d see if I could make it pure Ruby. Also, I thought it would be a good opportunity to test passing a custom Win32::Event object. I''m mostly done I think, but I''m having trouble unraveling the FILE_NOTIFY_INFORMATION struct buffer. Please check out the

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, One of the net-ping users reported that the Net::Ping::External library was returning false positives on Vista. Basically, it does a ''ping -n1 host'' and checks for certain error strings. The problem is that the error strings it checks for are in English. The user in question is using a cmd.exe that''s entirely in Swedish (I think). Is there any way I can

Hi all, I created a "pure" branch on github that uses the code Heesob posted a while back: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/win32utils-devel/2008-November/001274.html However, I couldn''t make it work on my Vista laptop. c:\Users\djberge\Repositories\win32-service\examples>ruby demo_daemon_ctl.rb start VERSION: 0.8.0

Hi all, I''m trying to get the allocation size of a file via a file handle (rather than its name).

Hi all, I''ve been working on the win32-pipe library (again) and I''ve reworked the interface. Instead of Pipe.new_server or Pipe.new_client, there''s now a base Pipe class, with Pipe::Server and Pipe::Client subclasses. You can find the latest code in the CVS repo. Oh, and you''ll need to update your windows-pr library with the latest from CVS if you want to

Hi, I''ve been using FFI with a Ruby 1.9.3 built with MSVC++ and it''s been working well. One thing I''ve run into though is this: ffi_lib :msvcrt But that''s not the runtime I want. But I don''t want to hard code the runtime name either. I realize I could parse it out of RbConfig, but I was hoping for something nicer. Is there a way we could create an
