ErrorCRdpf  Signal Traps/Stack Traces/Memory Leak Checks


Description:

Handlers for signals plus __WARN__ & __DIE__ provide stack traces for
signals not caught elsewhere.  Uses Config to determine whether the
signals even exist before attempting to handle them.  Provides summary
to file.  Usefull when developing new code involving several
cooperating processed running in the background, or using code/modules
contributed by others.  The stack trace code is similar to that
available in Carp, with more information.  Routines are available as
replacements for warn()/die() or cluck()/confess.

Memory leak check code is not loaded or exexuted unless eneabled.
This code relies on Devel::Leak.  A simple, one line interface allows
one to check a subroutine to see if it is causing memory leaks.  When
enabled, the END() code automatically prints a summary of all tests to
a file.  Summary information includes the program name, pid, and for
each routine tested, the package name, subroutine name, and summary of
unreclaimed SV's.  Works for multiple programs, and multiple
packages/subs simulteneously.  I personally used it with 20
simultaneous web grabbers to verify that the libwww code was not
leaking.

I have personally tested and used this code extensively, but that's
it.





Register Perl developer

2000-08-06 Thread Freddy Vulto

Hi,

I'd look to register myself as a Perl developer and obtain a PAUSE ID in
order to contribute the script 'refill.pl'.

   name:Freddy Vulto
   e-mail address:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
   homepage:http://www.fvu.myweb.nl
   preferred ID:FVULTO
   description: When you move your site, the 'refill' utility can
traverse the directory tree and modify each file to
resemble the content of a specified local file, e.g.
a file with the contents: "This site has been moved 
to ".
   discussion:  The script hasn't been discussed publicly.  Before
writing it, I searched CPAN and the internet to find 
a utility which would accomplish the task, but 
couldn't find one.


Gr & thanks in advance,

Freddy Vulto

JPIERCE
A lightweight module for dumping specific forms of data, as opposed to
Data::JavaScript's generic all purpose heavier abilities.
a/bdpf

It has been uploaded to
$CPAN/authors/id/J/JP/JPIERCE/Data-JavaScript-LiteObject-1.00.tgz

If it must be merged into say, Data::JavaScript, so be it.
However, that kind of defeats the purpose. It is meant to be lightweight.
It's a 6k module; half is documentation; that works fine and provides
several options. Whereas D::JS with it's is well on it's way to 30k.
Additionally the output differs greatly it's compactness...
I have nothing against renaming it, if necessary, but this seemed the
best choice, and has no conflicts.

proposal for Win32::OleAcc

2000-08-06 Thread Phill Wolf

This is a petition for registration as a module contributor, unless it turns
out (oops!) the module has already been done...

-name: Phill Wolf
-email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
-url: http://members.bellatlantic.net/~pbwolf/ (nothing there)
-preferred cpan uid: PBWOLF
-contribution:  a module whereby Perl scripts on Windows can use Active
Accessibility (to manipulate and query GUI components)
-interest shown yet: none (The August DC Perlmongers meeting got rained out)

Name   DSLI  Description  Info
-     -
Win32::
::OleAcc   cd+O  Active Accessibility client

The proposed module name comes from 'oleacc.h', which defines the functions.

Related CPAN modules:

-Win32::OLE.  If you could get an Active Accessibility interface into
Win32::OLE, it would probably work, since IAccessible is dual.  But it would
be an inefficient way to deal with Active Accessibility, since you typically
place at least the same 3 or 4 calls on every Active Accessibility object.
And you need access to a few Win32 Active Accessibility functions besides
the ones available through IAccessible.

-Win32::GuiTest.  GuiTest users might also use OleAcc, or vice versa.  The
sweeping package name "GuiTest" threatens an eggplant effect.  GUI testing
is a *large* discipline and GuiTest is wading just off the beach, but near a
sharp dropoff into much deeper water.  I think it wise to put OleAcc, which
is well-defined, cohesive and uncoupled, into a separate package.  I like it
when packages are named for what they do, rather than what you might use
them for.

Thanks for your time,

-Phill




PAUSE registration

2000-08-06 Thread Tom Zeltwanger

Please register me for a CPAN ID using the registration information is
given below:

Name:   Tom Zeltwanger

Email:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Homepage:   (none)

CPAN ID:ZELT



I would like to register as a PERL MODULE developer. I plan to contribute
modules dealing with MAIL and am talking to Graham Barr about possibly
becoming the responsible author for Mail::Alias. We are planning to merge
his old Mail:Alias module with a new Alias module I have written that will
add several new features to the package while maintaining compatibility for
users of the old module.


Thanks,


Tom Zeltwanger
