Message-ID: <001e01cc6057$2afdd040$80f970c0$@com>

Hi,

I'm having some trouble with mingw and win32-service.

Ruby 1.8.7 p330 (mingw)
Windows Vista

>ruby demo_daemon.rb install
>ruby demo_daemon.rb start

Result:

c:\>tail -f win32_daemon_test.log

Daemon failure: Service_Main thread exited abnormally

Using a version compile with VC9 works as expected, however.

Any ideas? I'm not using seh.h btw.

Regards,

Dan

Subject: [Win32utils-devel] Pure Ruby TCP Daemon
Message-ID: <003201cc60f7$9c9ceba0$d5d6c2e0$@com>

Hi all,

I created a "pure" branch on github that uses the code Heesob posted a while
back:

http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/win32utils-devel/2008-November/001274.html

However, I couldn't make it work on my Vista laptop.

c:\Users\djberge\Repositories\win32-service\examples>ruby demo_daemon_ctl.rb

C:/Ruby187/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/win32-service-0.8.0/lib/win32/service.rb:7
53:in `start': The servi
ce did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
(Win32::Service::Error)
        from demo_daemon_ctl.rb:68

I also tried with Ruby 1.9/mingw. Same result.

Only thing that looks odd is "param2", though I don't know if that's

Any ideas?

Same result with this code:

Any ideas?

Some debugging indicates that it's hanging on this line:

WaitForSingleObject(@arg_event, INFINITE)

I haven't figured out why yet, though.

Subject: [Win32utils-devel] strcpy declaration
Message-ID: <005d01cc62d1$fdba3e70$f92ebb50$@com>

In windows-pr strcpy is declared with a prototype of "PL". However, I can't
make that work:

require 'win32/api'
include Win32

Strcpy_p = Win32::API.new('strcpy', 'PP', 'L', 'msvcrt')
Strcpy_l = Win32::API.new('strcpy', 'PL', 'L', 'msvcrt')

buf = 0.chr * 4
str = "hello"

Strcpy_p.call(buf, str) # works
p buf

buf = 0.chr * 4
str = "hello"

Strcpy_l.call(buf, str.unpack('L').first) # fails, segfault
p buf

I would think either declaration would work but apparently not.

Have we simply not been using this function all this time?

Regards,

Dan

This works:

buf = 0.chr * 5
str = "hello"
Strcpy_l.call(buf, [str].pack('p').unpack('L').first)
p buf

Thanks for looking at this guys. Have updated the strcpy line.. I'm
still having problems though..

I'm pretty sure it's coming from the 2 lines:

dispatch_table = [""].pack('p') + [svc_main.address].pack('L') + "\0"*8
if(!StartServiceCtrlDispatcher(dispatch_table)) ....

I could be mistaken, but StartServiceCtrlDispatcher should fire the
svc_main win32 callback which never happens on my machine. I've spent
the past few days trying to see if I could fix it myself but I'm a
little stuck..

Am I right in understanding that the dispatch_table variable is just
trying to imitate a pointer to a service_table_entry struct? Does this
work for you guys doing it this way? It just hangs for me at this
point for about 5 seconds and then exits.

Was about to start playing with the gem ffi to see if I could create
an array of structs that way and just pass the actual pointer from
that? A bit unsure of how to tackle it at the moment, any suggestions?
