Re: Win32::API - How to call an Imported function with Win32::API::Types ?

[vladdrak]

This may not be of great help, but I've always used Win32::API a bit differently, (not importing) which worked for me. You're out there in no mans land with Win32::API for the most part, doc/example-wise, so I hope you have some C under you belt. Try packing up your stuff proper, minus the typedefs, and just shove it in there.

Warning: you may have to sacrifice livestock or perform some strange ritual in a musty basement in order to get everything working.

my $FileTimeToSystemTime = new Win32::API('Kernel32.dll', 'FileTimeToS
+ystemTime',['P','P'],'I');

sub FileTimeToSystemTime {
  my $filetime=shift;
  my $systemtime="\0" x (2*8);

  $FileTimeToSystemTime->Call($filetime, $systemtime) or return;

  return unpack( 'S8', $systemtime);
}
