I have an external Win32 process which I run to delete quite a number of files that are generated during extracting and the sorting process. I can have the "destroy.pl" in my main code but it makes my code long and hard to read.
My problem is when I generate a stand-alone executable using PerlApp, I cannot run it on a machine which does not have perl installed. Not even on a machine where perl is not installed on c: directory.
I tried to create destroy.exe and have it in the same folder as the main program, but that did not work either. Because I don't know how to tell the main program where to find the destroy.exe. Any suggestions.
my $command = "c:\\perl\\bin\\perl.exe";
my $args = "perl.exe c:\\perl\\destroy.pl";
my $process;
Win32::Process::Create($process,
$command,
$args,
0,
DETACHED_PROCESS,
'.') || & error();

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
