Re: Can't unload hive

[Lyle Kopnicky]

I talked to the author of Win32::TieRegistry, Tye (!) McQueen.  The 
problem is that the module is trying to unload the hive when the object 
is destroyed, at the end of the file, but it has already been unloaded.  
The solution is, instead of writing

   $ProfileHive->UnLoad;
is to write
   undef $ProfileHive;
He is going to fix the bug and update the documentation.  (Yes I know 
I'm top posting but I think it makes sense in this case.)

Hi,
I am now having trouble unloading a hive.  I can load it, and read a 
value just fine - but when it gets to the UnLoad statement, I get the 
error "Couldn't unload /Users/./: The parameter is incorrect."

The hive seems to unload by itself when the program quits - but why 
can I not unload it manually?

Thanks,
Lyle

use Win32::TieRegistry (Delimiter=>'/');
my $ok = $Registry->AllowLoad(1);
my $ProfileHive = $Registry->{"Users"}->Load($TestProfile, ".");
#$ProfileHive->{"KeyName//$ValueName"} = $NewValue;
my $CurValue = $ProfileHive->{"$KeyName//$ValueName"};
print "value = $CurValue\n";
unless ($ProfileHive->UnLoad) {
   print "Error - unable to unload hive.\n";
}
