You could be having an issue similar to what I'm trying to sort out - this link may help http://perl.plover.com/FAQs/Buffering.html else, this could be a genuine timeout issue

Beyrent [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, July 05, 2002 3:21 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Net::Telnet and wxPerl Hey everyone, I have a wxPerl app that is using Net::Telnet to connect to a UNIX host to run a script. As you can see from the example, the script is exectuted, and then I want to watch the output log get updated, but I want to pipe that into a Text area on the wxPerl app. I can't seem to figure out how to do it, and the code below times out, even though the script on the UNIX side is running. Any ideas? -Erich- =================================================== # Go to the script directory my $status = $obj->cmd(String => "cd $script_dir", Timeout => 10); # Launch the backup script $status = $obj->cmd(String => "$script -tape$length -$backup_type", Timeout =>20); $status = $obj->cmd(String => "cd $data_dir"); # Capture the output of the tail command my @results = $obj->cmd(String => "tail -f $log"); # I want this this text area to contain the value of @results as the script runs, not when the script finishes. $this->{NOTEBOOK}->{TAPEPANEL}->{TEXT}->SetValue("@results"); _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
