Perl Win32::API() call() function -

-

dear all, trying value of char pointer or string in return of call() function dll. dll having function randomdec(long , int*) , returns string. call using win32::api(). have tried , didn't succeed. plz help

use win32::api;   @lpbuffer = " " x 20;    $pp= \@lpbuffer;   $xy=0;   $ff= \$xy;   $fun2 = new win32::api('my.dll','randomdec','np','**p**')or die $^e;   $pp = $fun2->call(4,$ff);

how using $pp ?

there multiple errors in code.

  1. my @lpbuffer = " " x 20; $pp= \@lpbuffer;

=> my $pp = " " x 20;

you mixing arrays strings, , don't need perl ref c ptr. similar int*.

  1. n number not long. l unsigned, need signed, l.
     use win32::api;     $pp = " " x 20;   # alloc string     $xy = 0;          # alloc int     $fun2 = new win32::api('my.dll','randomdec','lp','p') or die $^e;       $pp = $fun2->call(4,$xy);

i haven't check if win32::api can lvalue assignment char*. not, $pp foreign pointer string after call, , prev. pv slot $pp lost, , inaccessible perl. ffi's , winapi return int, not strings. strings via sideeffects, function arg.

c# - Is it possible to remove an existing registration from Autofac container builder? -

-
something along lines: builder.registertype<mytype>().as<itype>(); builder.registertype<mytype2>().as<itype>(); builder.deregistertype<mytype>().as<itype>() var container = builder.build(); var types = container.resolve<ienumerable<itype>>(); assert.istrue(types.count == 1); assert.istrue(types[0].gettype == typeof(mytype2)); scenario: go through bunch of assemblies , go register types want make sure have 1 implementation of given type. need before create container. track on own nice if autofac me bit. this cannot done directly using containerbuilder , unless start on new one. mind you, having first built container should able construct new container filtering away unwanted types , reusing registrations first container. this: ... var container = builder.build(); builder = new containerbuilder(); var components = container.componentregistry.registrations .where(cr => cr.activator.limittype != typ...

php - Mysql PK and FK char(36) vs int(10) -

-
i have read mysql can handle indexes , searches better if tables keys integers rather char(36) uuid's. is worth converting int(10)? note: use 1 server , have have plans use multiple databases concurrently therefore removing 1 of big reasons using uuid. our tables innodb if makes difference. thanks in advance. usually rdbms can handle integer keys pk more efficient, other datatypes. reason how build index column, yes: long dont require string (or other typed) keys, should use integers. however: char(36) , int(10) far away being equal, because int(10) much smaller, char(36). dont know, if require many different keys, should keep in mind. update, complete last paragraph: int(10) 32-bit, char(36) 36 - ^byte^ (= 288-bit). not mean, int consumes less space, means, char(36) has 4 times more different keys.
