Hi all, If i want to use virtual PC as a means to setting up a virtual lab what do i need? As i understand it i not only need the virtual PC software but also a separate copy of each OS i want to install. Is this true? I had heard mention of using evaluation software to get around this? Also...

I'll look into that .... thanks By the way, there is a typo in my message, usleep works at a granularity of microseconds not milli....anyway doesn't change the original problem i've outlined....

Hi all, wonder an you help. I run active state perl 5.8 on my windows machine. I need to control the increment rate of a while loop and after trying with Time::HiRes usleep and Win32::Sleep i've found something that puzzled me and led me to do some benchmark testing. This then showed a problem...

Thanks ishnid, I'm not really sure how to do that, i've played a bit but keep getting funny errors? To tell the truth i'm not too hot on pointers and objects etc. Could you give me an idea? Cheers

Hi, Wonder can anyone give me some help. I've written a few scripts with tk and threads and everything has been fairly straightforward until i hit this little problem. Basically i have a small GUI consisting of a Label widget. The text variable in this widget points to a shared variable. I...

Hi, Does anyone know of a tool that records the objects/methods etc that get called during user interaction on windows? I want to automate a few windows applications via OLE but i find really difficult to know what COM objects and their available methods i need to use. I've got oleview.exe but...

Hi, I've been looking into Win32::OLE and have got pretty excited about the doors it has opened! I'm looking to automate a few things e.g. an internet explorer web brwosing session. I can create the explorer window, monitor for events and load various URL's from the perl script. However i'm...

Trojan, Man, i cant thank you enough, it works!! I'll research myself why your change works. Its a little bit slow to pick up the change but again i'll look into this. Thanks again for all your help over the last week.......

Hi folks, Thanks for all your help and pointers, however i'm stuck again!! Can someone please please look at the small script i've written and point out why it wont work?! Basically i create a thread which prints hashes at $period seconds interval. $period is a shared variable. I expect the...

Trojan, Thanks so much for that, my head was starting to spin a bit so its nice to have something specific to look into...

One other note, i thought about having the widget process writing its value to a text file. The hash process could then be written to periodically read this and act upon any change. However this seems to be a bit kludgy? What do you think

Hi, I was recently guided towards perl/tk for GUI creation but have realised this was only address 1 of my requirements. I know i'll have to use separate processes but i cant seem to get a good picture as to how i can communicate between them, ideally i'd like a parent process to make a change...

Thanks everyone, i think i'll look into tk for starters as there seems to be quite a lot of info/books about

Hi folks, I know perl quite well now but have been pondering writing a program that will need something i'm not too sure about. If i wished to create a program with a gui in which something is occuring constantly and i wish to be able to change say a slider widget on a GUI during run time which...

Sorry folks for asking more newbie questions but i'm playing around with my compiler to understand it better and a few things don't figure. Under windows the size of my executable will go up and down as i add or remove functions from my project. However if i start defining e.g. some extra floats...

Actually, i've just tried compiling a program of mine after adding in a few dummy function declarations in the header file and it all compiled as usual......so i guess the answer is no! Does this mean that function declarations are purely for the compilers use and nothing to do with the...

Hi, Something is confusing me with regard to function declarations in header files. If i include a header file with many different function declarations in my main module but only actually use one of the functions does this mean that all of the function definitions are eventually linked in or...

Hi Ishnid, This looks more like what i was thinking of. However it looks like this construct captures all of the output into a variable for the duration of the external program. What worries me is i don't need to 'keep' all of the output i.e. what would be ideal would be to capture the output...
