569 Win32 - Interfaces to some Win32 API Functions
\r
573 The Win32 module contains functions to access Win32 APIs.
\r
575 =head2 Alphabetical Listing of Win32 Functions
\r
577 It is recommended to C<use Win32;> before any of these functions;
\r
578 however, for backwards compatibility, those marked as [CORE] will
\r
579 automatically do this for you.
\r
581 In the function descriptions below the term I<Unicode string> is used
\r
582 to indicate that the string may contain characters outside the system
\r
583 codepage. The caveat I<If supported by the core Perl version>
\r
584 generally means Perl 5.8.9 and later, though some Unicode pathname
\r
585 functionality may work on earlier versions.
\r
589 =item Win32::AbortSystemShutdown(MACHINE)
\r
591 Aborts a system shutdown (started by the
\r
592 InitiateSystemShutdown function) on the specified MACHINE.
\r
594 =item Win32::BuildNumber()
\r
596 [CORE] Returns the ActivePerl build number. This function is
\r
597 only available in the ActivePerl binary distribution.
\r
599 =item Win32::CopyFile(FROM, TO, OVERWRITE)
\r
601 [CORE] The Win32::CopyFile() function copies an existing file to a new
\r
602 file. All file information like creation time and file attributes will
\r
603 be copied to the new file. However it will B<not> copy the security
\r
604 information. If the destination file already exists it will only be
\r
605 overwritten when the OVERWRITE parameter is true. But even this will
\r
606 not overwrite a read-only file; you have to unlink() it first
\r
609 =item Win32::CreateDirectory(DIRECTORY)
\r
611 Creates the DIRECTORY and returns a true value on success. Check $^E
\r
612 on failure for extended error information.
\r
614 DIRECTORY may contain Unicode characters outside the system codepage.
\r
615 Once the directory has been created you can use
\r
616 Win32::GetANSIPathName() to get a name that can be passed to system
\r
617 calls and external programs.
\r
619 =item Win32::CreateFile(FILE)
\r
621 Creates the FILE and returns a true value on success. Check $^E on
\r
622 failure for extended error information.
\r
624 FILE may contain Unicode characters outside the system codepage. Once
\r
625 the file has been created you can use Win32::GetANSIPathName() to get
\r
626 a name that can be passed to system calls and external programs.
\r
628 =item Win32::DomainName()
\r
630 [CORE] Returns the name of the Microsoft Network domain or workgroup
\r
631 that the owner of the current perl process is logged into. The
\r
632 "Workstation" service must be running to determine this
\r
633 information. This function does B<not> work on Windows 9x.
\r
635 =item Win32::ExpandEnvironmentStrings(STRING)
\r
637 Takes STRING and replaces all referenced environment variable
\r
638 names with their defined values. References to environment variables
\r
639 take the form C<%VariableName%>. Case is ignored when looking up the
\r
640 VariableName in the environment. If the variable is not found then the
\r
641 original C<%VariableName%> text is retained. Has the same effect
\r
644 $string =~ s/%([^%]*)%/$ENV{$1} || "%$1%"/eg
\r
646 However, this function may return a Unicode string if the environment
\r
647 variable being expanded hasn't been assigned to via %ENV. Access
\r
648 to %ENV is currently always using byte semantics.
\r
650 =item Win32::FormatMessage(ERRORCODE)
\r
652 [CORE] Converts the supplied Win32 error number (e.g. returned by
\r
653 Win32::GetLastError()) to a descriptive string. Analogous to the
\r
654 perror() standard-C library function. Note that C<$^E> used
\r
655 in a string context has much the same effect.
\r
657 C:\> perl -e "$^E = 26; print $^E;"
\r
658 The specified disk or diskette cannot be accessed
\r
660 =item Win32::FsType()
\r
662 [CORE] Returns the name of the filesystem of the currently active
\r
663 drive (like 'FAT' or 'NTFS'). In list context it returns three values:
\r
664 (FSTYPE, FLAGS, MAXCOMPLEN). FSTYPE is the filesystem type as
\r
665 before. FLAGS is a combination of values of the following table:
\r
667 0x00000001 supports case-sensitive filenames
\r
668 0x00000002 preserves the case of filenames
\r
669 0x00000004 supports Unicode in filenames
\r
670 0x00000008 preserves and enforces ACLs
\r
671 0x00000010 supports file-based compression
\r
672 0x00000020 supports disk quotas
\r
673 0x00000040 supports sparse files
\r
674 0x00000080 supports reparse points
\r
675 0x00000100 supports remote storage
\r
676 0x00008000 is a compressed volume (e.g. DoubleSpace)
\r
677 0x00010000 supports object identifiers
\r
678 0x00020000 supports the Encrypted File System (EFS)
\r
680 MAXCOMPLEN is the maximum length of a filename component (the part
\r
681 between two backslashes) on this file system.
\r
683 =item Win32::FreeLibrary(HANDLE)
\r
685 Unloads a previously loaded dynamic-link library. The HANDLE is
\r
686 no longer valid after this call. See L<LoadLibrary|Win32::LoadLibrary(LIBNAME)>
\r
687 for information on dynamically loading a library.
\r
689 =item Win32::GetANSIPathName(FILENAME)
\r
691 Returns an ANSI version of FILENAME. This may be the short name
\r
692 if the long name cannot be represented in the system codepage.
\r
694 While not currently implemented, it is possible that in the future
\r
695 this function will convert only parts of the path to FILENAME to a
\r
698 If FILENAME doesn't exist on the filesystem, or if the filesystem
\r
699 doesn't support short ANSI filenames, then this function will
\r
700 translate the Unicode name into the system codepage using replacement
\r
703 =item Win32::GetArchName()
\r
705 Use of this function is deprecated. It is equivalent with
\r
706 $ENV{PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE}. This might not work on Win9X.
\r
708 =item Win32::GetChipName()
\r
710 Returns the processor type: 386, 486 or 586 for x86 processors, 8664
\r
711 for the x64 processor and 2200 for the Itanium. Since it returns the
\r
712 native processor type it will return a 64-bit processor type even when
\r
713 called from a 32-bit Perl running on 64-bit Windows.
\r
715 =item Win32::GetCwd()
\r
717 [CORE] Returns the current active drive and directory. This function
\r
718 does not return a UNC path, since the functionality required for such
\r
719 a feature is not available under Windows 95.
\r
721 If supported by the core Perl version, this function will return an
\r
722 ANSI path name for the current directory if the long pathname cannot
\r
723 be represented in the system codepage.
\r
725 =item Win32::GetCurrentProcessId()
\r
727 Returns the process identifier of the current process. Until the
\r
728 process terminates, the process identifier uniquely identifies the
\r
729 process throughout the system.
\r
731 The current process identifier is normally also available via the
\r
732 predefined $$ variable. Under fork() emulation however $$ may contain
\r
733 a pseudo-process identifier that is only meaningful to the Perl
\r
734 kill(), wait() and waitpid() functions. The
\r
735 Win32::GetCurrentProcessId() function will always return the regular
\r
736 Windows process id, even when called from inside a pseudo-process.
\r
738 =item Win32::GetCurrentThreadId()
\r
740 Returns the thread identifier of the calling thread. Until the thread
\r
741 terminates, the thread identifier uniquely identifies the thread
\r
742 throughout the system.
\r
744 =item Win32::GetFileVersion(FILENAME)
\r
746 Returns the file version number from the VERSIONINFO resource of
\r
747 the executable file or DLL. This is a tuple of four 16 bit numbers.
\r
748 In list context these four numbers will be returned. In scalar context
\r
749 they are concatenated into a string, separated by dots.
\r
751 =item Win32::GetFolderPath(FOLDER [, CREATE])
\r
753 Returns the full pathname of one of the Windows special folders.
\r
754 The folder will be created if it doesn't exist and the optional CREATE
\r
755 argument is true. The following FOLDER constants are defined by the
\r
756 Win32 module, but only exported on demand:
\r
761 CSIDL_COMMON_ADMINTOOLS
\r
762 CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA
\r
763 CSIDL_COMMON_DESKTOPDIRECTORY
\r
764 CSIDL_COMMON_DOCUMENTS
\r
765 CSIDL_COMMON_FAVORITES
\r
767 CSIDL_COMMON_PICTURES
\r
768 CSIDL_COMMON_PROGRAMS
\r
769 CSIDL_COMMON_STARTMENU
\r
770 CSIDL_COMMON_STARTUP
\r
771 CSIDL_COMMON_TEMPLATES
\r
775 CSIDL_DESKTOPDIRECTORY
\r
779 CSIDL_INTERNET_CACHE
\r
780 CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA
\r
789 CSIDL_PROGRAM_FILES
\r
790 CSIDL_PROGRAM_FILES_COMMON
\r
793 CSIDL_RESOURCES_LOCALIZED
\r
801 Note that not all folders are defined on all versions of Windows.
\r
803 Please refer to the MSDN documentation of the CSIDL constants,
\r
804 currently available at:
\r
806 http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/shell/reference/enums/csidl.asp
\r
808 This function will return an ANSI folder path if the long name cannot
\r
809 be represented in the system codepage. Use Win32::GetLongPathName()
\r
810 on the result of Win32::GetFolderPath() if you want the Unicode
\r
811 version of the folder name.
\r
813 =item Win32::GetFullPathName(FILENAME)
\r
815 [CORE] GetFullPathName combines the FILENAME with the current drive
\r
816 and directory name and returns a fully qualified (aka, absolute)
\r
817 path name. In list context it returns two elements: (PATH, FILE) where
\r
818 PATH is the complete pathname component (including trailing backslash)
\r
819 and FILE is just the filename part. Note that no attempt is made to
\r
820 convert 8.3 components in the supplied FILENAME to longnames or
\r
821 vice-versa. Compare with Win32::GetShortPathName() and
\r
822 Win32::GetLongPathName().
\r
824 If supported by the core Perl version, this function will return an
\r
825 ANSI path name if the full pathname cannot be represented in the
\r
828 =item Win32::GetLastError()
\r
830 [CORE] Returns the last error value generated by a call to a Win32 API
\r
831 function. Note that C<$^E> used in a numeric context amounts to the
\r
834 =item Win32::GetLongPathName(PATHNAME)
\r
836 [CORE] Returns a representation of PATHNAME composed of longname
\r
837 components (if any). The result may not necessarily be longer
\r
838 than PATHNAME. No attempt is made to convert PATHNAME to the
\r
839 absolute path. Compare with Win32::GetShortPathName() and
\r
840 Win32::GetFullPathName().
\r
842 This function may return the pathname in Unicode if it cannot be
\r
843 represented in the system codepage. Use Win32::GetANSIPathName()
\r
844 before passing the path to a system call or another program.
\r
846 =item Win32::GetNextAvailDrive()
\r
848 [CORE] Returns a string in the form of "<d>:" where <d> is the first
\r
849 available drive letter.
\r
851 =item Win32::GetOSDisplayName()
\r
853 Returns the "marketing" name of the Windows operating system version
\r
854 being used. It returns names like these (random samples):
\r
856 Windows 2000 Datacenter Server
\r
857 Windows XP Professional
\r
858 Windows XP Tablet PC Edition
\r
859 Windows Home Server
\r
860 Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition for Itanium-based Systems
\r
861 Windows Vista Ultimate (32-bit)
\r
862 Windows Small Business Server 2008 R2 (64-bit)
\r
864 The display name describes the native Windows version, so even on a
\r
865 32-bit Perl this function may return a "Windows ... (64-bit)" name
\r
866 when running on a 64-bit Windows.
\r
868 This function should only be used to display the actual OS name to the
\r
869 user; it should not be used to determine the class of operating systems
\r
870 this system belongs to. The Win32::GetOSName(), Win32::GetOSVersion,
\r
871 Win32::GetProductInfo() and Win32::GetSystemMetrics() functions provide
\r
872 the base information to check for certain capabilities, or for families
\r
875 =item Win32::GetOSName()
\r
877 In scalar context returns the name of the Win32 operating system
\r
878 being used. In list context returns a two element list of the OS name
\r
879 and whatever edition information is known about the particular build
\r
880 (for Win9X boxes) and whatever service packs have been installed.
\r
881 The latter is roughly equivalent to the first item returned by
\r
882 GetOSVersion() in list context.
\r
884 The description will also include tags for other special editions,
\r
885 like "R2", "Media Center", "Tablet PC", or "Starter Edition".
\r
887 Currently the possible values for the OS name are
\r
903 This routine is just a simple interface into GetOSVersion(). More
\r
904 specific or demanding situations should use that instead. Another
\r
905 option would be to use POSIX::uname(), however the latter appears to
\r
906 report only the OS family name and not the specific OS. In scalar
\r
907 context it returns just the ID.
\r
909 The name "WinXP/.Net" is used for historical reasons only, to maintain
\r
910 backwards compatibility of the Win32 module. Windows .NET Server has
\r
911 been renamed as Windows 2003 Server before final release and uses a
\r
912 different major/minor version number than Windows XP.
\r
914 Similarly the name "WinWin32s" should have been "Win32s" but has been
\r
915 kept as-is for backwards compatibility reasons too.
\r
917 =item Win32::GetOSVersion()
\r
919 [CORE] Returns the list (STRING, MAJOR, MINOR, BUILD, ID), where the
\r
920 elements are, respectively: An arbitrary descriptive string, the major
\r
921 version number of the operating system, the minor version number, the
\r
922 build number, and a digit indicating the actual operating system.
\r
923 For the ID, the values are 0 for Win32s, 1 for Windows 9X/Me and 2 for
\r
924 Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008/7. In scalar context it returns just
\r
927 Currently known values for ID MAJOR and MINOR are as follows:
\r
935 Windows NT 3.51 2 3 51
\r
940 Windows Server 2003 2 5 2
\r
941 Windows Server 2003 R2 2 5 2
\r
942 Windows Home Server 2 5 2
\r
944 Windows Vista 2 6 0
\r
945 Windows Server 2008 2 6 0
\r
947 Windows Server 2008 R2 2 6 1
\r
949 On Windows NT 4 SP6 and later this function returns the following
\r
950 additional values: SPMAJOR, SPMINOR, SUITEMASK, PRODUCTTYPE.
\r
952 The version numbers for Windows 2003 and Windows Home Server are
\r
953 identical; the SUITEMASK field must be used to differentiate between\
\r
956 The version numbers for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 are
\r
957 identical; the PRODUCTTYPE field must be used to differentiate between
\r
960 The version numbers for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are
\r
961 identical; the PRODUCTTYPE field must be used to differentiate between
\r
964 SPMAJOR and SPMINOR are are the version numbers of the latest
\r
965 installed service pack.
\r
967 SUITEMASK is a bitfield identifying the product suites available on
\r
968 the system. Known bits are:
\r
970 VER_SUITE_SMALLBUSINESS 0x00000001
\r
971 VER_SUITE_ENTERPRISE 0x00000002
\r
972 VER_SUITE_BACKOFFICE 0x00000004
\r
973 VER_SUITE_COMMUNICATIONS 0x00000008

983 VER_SUITE_STORAGE_SERVER 0x00002000
\r
984 VER_SUITE_COMPUTE_SERVER 0x00004000
\r
985 VER_SUITE_WH_SERVER 0x00008000
\r
987 The VER_SUITE_xxx names are listed here to crossreference the Microsoft
\r
988 documentation. The Win32 module does not provide symbolic names for these
\r
991 PRODUCTTYPE provides additional information about the system. It should
\r
992 be one of the following integer values:
\r
994 1 - Workstation (NT 4, 2000 Pro, XP Home, XP Pro, Vista)
\r
995 2 - Domaincontroller
\r
996 3 - Server (2000 Server, Server 2003, Server 2008)
\r
998 Note that a server that is also a domain controller is reported as
\r
999 PRODUCTTYPE 2 (Domaincontroller) and not PRODUCTTYPE 3 (Server).
\r
1001 =item Win32::GetShortPathName(PATHNAME)
\r
1003 [CORE] Returns a representation of PATHNAME that is composed of short
\r
1004 (8.3) path components where available. For path components where the
\r
1005 file system has not generated the short form the returned path will
\r
1006 use the long form, so this function might still for instance return a
\r
1007 path containing spaces. Returns C<undef> when the PATHNAME does not
\r
1008 exist. Compare with Win32::GetFullPathName() and
\r
1009 Win32::GetLongPathName().
\r
1011 =item Win32::GetSystemMetrics(INDEX)
\r
1013 Retrieves the specified system metric or system configuration setting.
\r
1014 Please refer to the Microsoft documentation of the GetSystemMetrics()
\r
1015 function for a reference of available INDEX values. All system
\r
1016 metrics return integer values.
\r
1018 =item Win32::GetProcAddress(INSTANCE, PROCNAME)
\r
1020 Returns the address of a function inside a loaded library. The
\r
1021 information about what you can do with this address has been lost in
\r
1022 the mist of time. Use the Win32::API module instead of this deprecated
\r
1025 =item Win32::GetProductInfo(OSMAJOR, OSMINOR, SPMAJOR, SPMINOR)
\r
1027 Retrieves the product type for the operating system on the local
\r
1028 computer, and maps the type to the product types supported by the
\r
1029 specified operating system. Please refer to the Microsoft
\r
1030 documentation of the GetProductInfo() function for more information
\r
1031 about the parameters and return value. This function requires Windows
\r
1034 See also the Win32::GetOSName() and Win32::GetOSDisplayName()
\r
1035 functions which provide a higher level abstraction of the data
\r
1036 returned by this function.
\r
1038 =item Win32::GetTickCount()
\r
1040 [CORE] Returns the number of milliseconds elapsed since the last
\r
1041 system boot. Resolution is limited to system timer ticks (about 10ms
\r
1042 on WinNT and 55ms on Win9X).
\r
1044 =item Win32::GuidGen()
\r
1046 Creates a globally unique 128 bit integer that can be used as a
\r
1047 persistent identifier in a distributed setting. To a very high degree
\r
1048 of certainty this function returns a unique value. No other
\r
1049 invocation, on the same or any other system (networked or not), should
\r
1050 return the same value.
\r
1052 The return value is formatted according to OLE conventions, as groups
\r
1053 of hex digits with surrounding braces. For example:
\r
1055 {09531CF1-D0C7-4860-840C-1C8C8735E2AD}
\r
1057 =item Win32::InitiateSystemShutdown
\r
1059 (MACHINE, MESSAGE, TIMEOUT, FORCECLOSE, REBOOT)
\r
1061 Shutsdown the specified MACHINE, notifying users with the
\r
1062 supplied MESSAGE, within the specified TIMEOUT interval. Forces
\r
1063 closing of all documents without prompting the user if FORCECLOSE is
\r
1064 true, and reboots the machine if REBOOT is true. This function works
\r
1067 =item Win32::IsAdminUser()
\r
1069 Returns non zero if the account in whose security context the
\r
1070 current process/thread is running belongs to the local group of
\r
1071 Administrators in the built-in system domain; returns 0 if not.
\r
1072 On Windows Vista it will only return non-zero if the process is
\r
1073 actually running with elevated privileges. Returns C<undef>
\r
1074 and prints a warning if an error occurred. This function always
\r
1075 returns 1 on Win9X.
\r
1077 =item Win32::IsWinNT()
\r
1079 [CORE] Returns non zero if the Win32 subsystem is Windows NT.
\r
1081 =item Win32::IsWin95()
\r
1083 [CORE] Returns non zero if the Win32 subsystem is Windows 95.
\r
1085 =item Win32::LoadLibrary(LIBNAME)
\r

\r
1156 =item Win32::SetChildShowWindow(SHOWWINDOW)
\r
1158 [CORE] Sets the I<ShowMode> of child processes started by system().

\r
1161 SetChildShowWindow(0) will make these new console windows invisible.
\r
1162 Calling SetChildShowWindow() without arguments reverts system() to the
\r
1163 default behavior. The return value of SetChildShowWindow() is the
\r
1164 previous setting or C<undef>.
\r
1166 The following symbolic constants for SHOWWINDOW are available
\r
1167 (but not exported) from the Win32 module: SW_HIDE, SW_SHOWNORMAL,
