Re^4: Win32::OLE -- translation from vbs to pl (depends.exe)

in thread Win32::OLE -- translation from vbs to pl

As I just reported in a separate reply, my code works with a 32bit strawberry perl. The messages I get from depends.exe, called as suggested above, for MGCPCBAutomationLicensing look fairly innocent:

Loaded "MGCPCBAUTOMATIONLICENSING.DLL" at address 0x00550000 by thread
+ 7.  Successfully hooked module.

When I try the same with my default 64bit perl however, I get

Failure starting the process. The request is not supported (50).

And I get this even when I just use perl.exe without any args (no program to load).

Dependency Walker comes in a 32 and 64 bit version, they only understand processes of the same bitness.	[reply]

I'll try to look into that even though www.dependencywalker.com says `Dependency Walker runs on Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, XP, 2003, Vist +a, 7, and 8. It can process any 32-bit or 64-bit Windows module [...]` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

It can process any 32-bit or 64-bit Windows module :) the faq says: only the 64-bit version of Dependency Walker can fully access the 64-bit environment, so it should always be used for processing 64-bit modules.	[reply]
