The program - is currently linked with a simple console window, so it also - works on non-hpc devices. - - The simple stdio implementation creates the files stdin.txt, - stdout.txt and stderr.txt, so you might examine them if your - console has only a liminted number of cols. - - When exitcode is non-zero, a message box appears, otherwise the - console closes, so you might have to catch an exit with - status 0 in your program to see any output. - - stdout/stderr now go into the files /perl-stdout.txt and - /perl-stderr.txt. - -LIMITATIONS - No fork(), pipe(), popen() etc. - -ENVIRONMENT - All environment vars must be stored in HKLM\Environment as - strings. They are read at process startup. - - PERL5LIB - Usual perl lib path (semi-list). - PATH - Semi-list for executables. - TMP - Tempdir. - UNIXROOTPATH - Root for accessing some special files, - i.e. /dev/null, /etc/services. - ROWS/COLS - Rows/cols for console. - HOME - Home directory. - CONSOLEFONTSIZE - Size for console font. - - You can set these with cereg.exe, a (remote) registry editor - or via the PerlIDE. - -REGISTRY - To start perl by clicking on a perl source file, you have - to make the according entries in HKCR (see wince-reg.bat). - cereg.exe (which must be executed on a desktop pc with - ActiveSync) is reported not to work on some devices. - You have to create the registry entries by hand using a - registry editor. - -FILES - $(UNIXROOTPATH)/dev/null - nul simulation, needed for perl -V - $(UNIXROOTPATH)/etc/services - services file - - /perl-stdin.txt - /perl-stdout.txt - /perl-stderr.txt - -PERLFILES - Only a limited set of perl files is provided in the - distribution archiv. You have to copy the original PERL5LIB - files from a perl for win32 installation and put the - distributed files into the right directories. - - The following files are a reasonable minimum if you want to do - some socket stuff: - - ./auto - ./auto/DynaLoader - ./auto/DynaLoader/autosplit.ix - ./auto/DynaLoader/dl_expandspec.al - ./auto/DynaLoader/dl_findfile.al - ./auto/DynaLoader/dl_find_symbol_anywhere.al - ./auto/IO - ./auto/IO/IO.bs - ./auto/IO/IO.dll - ./auto/Socket - ./auto/Socket/Socket.bs - ./auto/Socket/Socket.dll - ./Carp - ./Carp/Heavy.pm - ./Carp.pm - ./Config.pm - ./DynaLoader.pm - ./Exporter - ./Exporter/Heavy.pm - ./Exporter.pm - ./IO - ./IO/File.pm - ./IO/Handle.pm - ./IO/Socket.pm - ./IO.pm - ./SelectSaver.pm - ./Socket.pm - ./strict.pm - ./Symbol.pm - ./warnings - ./warnings/register.pm - ./warnings.pm - ./XSLoader.pm - -XS - The following Win32-Methods are built-in: - - newXS("Win32::GetCwd", w32_GetCwd, file); - newXS("Win32::SetCwd", w32_SetCwd, file); - newXS("Win32::GetTickCount", w32_GetTickCount, file); - newXS("Win32::GetOSVersion", w32_GetOSVersion, file); - newXS("Win32::IsWinNT", w32_IsWinNT, file); - newXS("Win32::IsWin95", w32_IsWin95, file); - newXS("Win32::IsWinCE", w32_IsWinCE, file); - newXS("Win32::CopyFile", w32_CopyFile, file); - newXS("Win32::Sleep", w32_Sleep, file); - newXS("Win32::MessageBox", w32_MessageBox, file); - newXS("Win32::GetPowerStatus", w32_GetPowerStatus, file); - newXS("Win32::GetOemInfo", w32_GetOemInfo, file); - newXS("Win32::ShellEx", w32_ShellEx, file); - -DLLS - In the newest version, my celib.dll is needed. Some XS dlls - might be needed. Currently, Socket and IO are provided. - -BUGS - Opening files for read-write is currently not supported if - they use stdio (normal perl file handles). - - If you find bugs or if it does not work at all on your - device, send mail to the address below. Please report - the details of your device (processor, ceversion, - devicetype (hpc/palm/pocket)) and the date of the downloaded - files. - - I currently have only a Compaq/MIPS HPC, a Jornada/SH3 HPC and - a Jornada/ARM HPC, so I can only test on these devices and - under the Emulators. - -INSTALLATION - This is only a suggestion... - - * Unpack the tar archive on your desktop. - * Create directories /bin, /lib/perl5, /home, /dev and /etc, - possibly on a CF card with the path to the card - prepended (i.e. /memcard/bin etc). - * Copy perl.exe, perl56.dll and celib.dll from your desktop to - /bin. The dlls can also be copied to your /windows - directory, but if you use a CF card, you might want to store - them there. - * Copy the other DLLs to the corresponding auto directory. - * Copy any needed perl module-files to /lib/perl5. - * Create the registry entries. - * If you need tcp service-name resolution, create - the file "services" in /etc and put int the entries you need. - - * Under WINCE200, all dlls must be copied to the windows - directory. - -MISC - If you think a certain XS module should be ported, send - me mail and explain why. - - If you write useful scripts for perlce, please send me - a copy. - -TERMINAL - There are simple terminal control sequences now. See the - readme file that comes with the console program. - -AUTHOR - Rainer Keuchel 2001 -
