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

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, 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, What''s happening here? require ''windows/path'' require ''windows/unicode'' include Windows::Path include Windows::Unicode file_a = ''bar.txt'' file_w = multi_to_wide(file_a) p PathFindExtensionA(file_a) # ''.txt'' => OK p PathFindExtensionW(file_w) # ''.'' => WRONG Is Ruby chopping the

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

I''m getting an error when I run the test2.rb script. I get this error: C:\eclipse\workspace\win32-service-0.3.0\test>ruby test2.rb install installed C:\eclipse\workspace\win32-service-0.3.0\test>ruby test2.rb start (Win32ServiceError)t'': Overlapped I/O operation is in progress. from test2.rb:42 Any ideas? Also, it looks like the output from ErrorDescription()

Hi all, Any Java/JRuby folks on the list? I''d like to see if we can implement api.c for JRuby using JNA and see how it handles the callbacks. I''m not a Java guy, nor do I know JNA, but I''ll take a stab at it if no one else on the list does. Here are a couple of useful links: http://www.infoq.com/news/2007/09/jna-jruby https://jna.dev.java.net/ Regards, Dan This

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, 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, Has anyone else been able to build Ruby 1.8.7 from source on Windows? I get this when I run configure: C:\>win32\configure.bat find: =: No such file or directory Creating Makefile Creating Makefile(6) : fatal error C1085: Cannot write compiler generated file: '''': Invalid argument NMAKE : fatal error U1077: ''cl'' : return code ''0x1''

Hi all, Just looking over fole_s_connect() in win32ole.c and I noticed this bit: hr = CLSIDFromProgID(pBuf, &clsid); ... hr = GetActiveObject(&clsid, 0, &pUnknown); ... hr = pUnknown->lpVtbl->QueryInterface( pUnknown, &IID_IDispatch, (void **)&pDispatch ); Using win32-api, that would be something like: IID_IUnknown =

Hi all, I''ve got the latest win32-mmap code checked into CVS. Unfortunately, it seems that I''m not able to open an existing mapping and retrieve set data. Below is a simple example that seems like it ought to work but doesn''t. Any ideas? # map1.rb require ''win32/mmap'' include Win32 mmap = MMap.new(:name => ''alpha'', :size

Hello list, In my quest to get Mongrel working as service for win32, found some problems with win32/service that make it impossible to solve. Attached is the simplest service script I could do with ruby, which depends on win32/service. I found that doing anything complex in service_stop (killing threads, doing file handling, even sleeping for 0.25 seconds). crash the service with backtraces (of

Hi all, Yeah, I''m going OT here... I''m not entirely sure I understand how Ruby builds parse.y on Windows, but it works. However, when I changed all instances of "Ruby" to "Sapphire", and renamed all the source files, I suddenly started getting this error: byacc ./parse.y ''byacc'' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

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

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'',

Along the same lines as the last question - how can I get to functions like MakeOpenFile via Win32API? It doesn''t seem to be exported by msvcrt-ruby18. Possible? Or am I out of luck?

Any ideas? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Christian Kerth <christian.ke... at dynamicmedia.at> Date: Dec 5, 8:28 am Subject: win32/process problem To: comp.lang.ruby I have an application that consists of serveral independent parts. I want to use the Windows Process API to spawn the different processes. e.g. require ''rubygems'' require

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 =
