Re: how to set the env var?
Read 'perldoc DBI'
As a convenience, if the $data_source parameter is
undefined or empty the DBI will substitute the value
of the environment variable DBI_DSN. If just the
driver_name part is empty (i.e., data_source prefix is
'dbi::') the environment variable DBI_DRIVER is used.
my ($username, $password) = ('foo', 'bar');
my $data_source = DBI:mysql:database=some_database;host=localhost;
and:
$dbh = DBI-connect($data_source, $username, $password) || die
$DBI::errstr;
or
$dbh = DBI-connect($data_source, $username, $password, \%attr) || die
$DBI::errstr;

Hi group.
I have the following snippet of code. It's not working and I've been going
round in circles trying to figure out why.
I need a routine that will look at the filename, if that filename already
exists, then add a (1) to the end. I've got the checking for existance
sorted, it's the generation of the new file name that is the issue.
E.g. test.txt exists so create test(1).txt
If test(1).txt exists then create test(2).txt and so on
Here is the problematic code I have so far
-- code --
my ($name, $ext) = split(/\./,$fileoutname);
#if ($name =~ /\((\d{1,1})\)$/) { # Looks for (1) on the end for example
if ($name =~ /\((\d)\)$/) { # the \d assumes one character. {1,1} is
just to specify range.
my $number = $1;
$number++;
# $name =~ tr/\(\d\)/\($number\)/;
$name =~ s/\(\d\)$/\($number\)/;# this line should do the
trick.
} else {
$name .= (1);
}
$fileoutname = $name\.$ext;
-- end code --
There's probally some really basic errors in there, and maybe a much better
way of doing it...

If you want to be a little more perlish, you can avoid the '\\' and put

using the system function
I am trying to scp a file to various systems, but the
script hangs if the scp command to one of the systems
fails. Is there a way in perl to specify that if the
scp command doesn't work to skip it and continue with
the next system? I have the following:
:
:
use Net::Ping;
@systems = qw(system1 system2 system3);
foreach $system (@systems) {
$p = Net::Ping-new(icmp);
next unless $p-ping($system);
system(/usr/local/bin/scp file $system:/home);
$p-close();
}
This works if the system is not reachable. But if the
system is reachable but it is hung for some other
reason, the script tries to do the scp command which
it won't work. So the script does not continue.
Any ideas on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

help with the backtick operator
I'm trying to call egrep from a perl script using the backtick operator
-- I need to parse the output from egrep to see if additional information
is contained, something like:
$parseFile = `egrep -d skip \\form\s*.*?action\s*=\s*\?someFile.html
2/dev/null`
if ($parseFile =~ /method\s*=\s*\?post/ ) { do this; }
(I realize I could probably write a comprehensive regular expression, but
I have other reasons for doing this...)
Basically, I have the following question(s) about the backtick operators:
In a scalar string context, will a shell command called by the backtick
operator return ALL lines? i.e., if egrep returns multiple lines, will
$parseFile contain all the lines? I know that in a list context, each item
in the list will contain a single line -- but can it work this way as well?

Matthew

Environments belong to *processes*, and a process cannot change the
environment of another process, with one exception: when a new
process is created with fork(), the child process is initialized with
a copy of the environment of its parent.
Typically you accomplish this kind of thing by setting the variable in
some kind of shell initialization script like .profile which is read
by your shell when it starts. Then when you start any program from your
shell, that program will pick up the setting, since it's a child of the
shell. That still doesn't take care of processes that aren't started by
your shell (web servers, etc.). Those programs will have their own way
of initializing their environment (e.g. Apache's httpd.conf file).

inetd client server communications

Communication from client to server is working but not from server to

STDIN and STDOUT. But it's not working and I'm stuck.

hashing - cannot remember how :(
Hi,
This is DUMB, but I cannot remember how?
I have two hashes and I want to pass them:
$data{ week } = %week_day_date;
$data{ eng } = %eng_info;
build_table_date( 5, %data );
then:
sub build_table_date {
my( $rows, %data ) = @_;
foreach $row ( 1..$rows ) {
printrows $row $rows *$data{ week }{ $rows }br;
}
But I get no data from $data{ week }{ $rows }!
I know this is simple, but what am I doing wrong?
Thanks for your help,

Try this. You didn't provide any sample data, so this is untested.
$data{ week } = \%week_day_date;
$data{ eng } = \%eng_info;

sub build_table_date {

RE: hashing - cannot remember how :(
I guess the expression should be $data{week}-{$rows} since it is a
reference. Right?
I usually use the - operator so that it sticks out, but either should work.
I don't think there is any performance benefit, so it is just a matter of
preference. The same goes when dereferencing, %$data{week} is the
equivelent of %{$data{week}}... and usually use the former.

I am trying to capture the values between the 's as arguments, not sure
why

Net::FTP fails on filenames with spaces
Can someone help me, I need to retrieve files with spaces in them, and Net::FTP errors out everytime. I've tried embedding quotes, not storing name in variable, quoting/not quoting variables. I'm at a loss. I thought that maybe I could convert the spaces to something, much like a webserver converts spaces in a URL, but I don't know if a FTP server could handle that, or how to do it if it could. Any help would be great!! Thanks. Joshua Colson Systems Administrator Giant Industries, Inc. (480) 585-8714 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: regex issues
Try:
/\[GUARD\] ([^]+)(\d+)(\d+)([^]+) ([^]+) ({^]+)/
To limit the characters you were matching with '.' to anything but angle brackets or:
/\[GUARD\] (.+?)(\d+?)(\d+?)(.+?) (.+?) (.+?)/
To cause the matching to be non-greedy and not swallow up the CK
that it grabbed in your example.

RE: CGI-BIN Question
A web server and a scripting language (I assume you were planning on using Perl). Some will suggest Apache (www.apache.org), and other will suggest IIS. Then you need ActiveState's ActivePerl (www.activestate.com), or some other Win32 port, Cygwin might work. Then you just need to set it up. I think the ActivePerl installation will automatically make the configuration changes in IIS if you already have it installed (but I'm not sure). If you choose Apache, you might want to get a book on it.

RE: Cgi on IIS
Maybe the file name has a .cgi extension? .cgi is not set for exeeute by
default. Try renaming it .pl assuming you installed ActivePerl. Or in
Internet Services Manager right click the scripts folder, and take a look at
the instructions in the attached mail of few days ago. I'm figuring that'll
probably do it.
Note that last time I installed ActivePerl it set .pl to perl %s %s as I
recall, but the extra double quotes may not matter, or maybe would apply if

I set up this cgi file and html form on a Unix server. The script

This works correctly on a Unix Server. However, I need to move these

object orientation :- please help
hi,
I am newbie at Perl.
I have written the following code in perl :-
sub point { # point(x,y) constructor
my ($x, $y) = @_;
return (
'x' = $x, # components
'y' = $y,
'show' = sub { # display method
my %p = @_;
print point at $p{'x'},$p{'y'}\n;
}
);
}
sub show { # method calling function
my %shape = @_;
$shape{'show'}(%shape);
}
show(point(1,2));
Is it anyway possible to Extend the above program with
constructors for rectangle and circle and a
non-virtual function move to change the reference
point of any of these objects.
Can anybody help me with it..
it would be great...
have a good day...
cheers,
amrit.
