Re: Problem with @ARGV in Win32 Perl

I'd be willing to bet that the following would work as you expect:

C:\temp\Perl>c:\path\to\perl.exe test2.pl 1 2 3 4 5
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
[download]

The problem is likely in the way .pl files are associated with the perl interpreter. It looks like at least on NT, you need to do:

    ASSOC .pl=PerlScript
    FTYPE PerlScript=c:\path\to\perl.exe %1 %*
[download]

If you had forgotten the %* part, perl would never receive the additional arguments to pass to your script.. YMMV with Windows 2000, though.

Make that: `FTYPE PerlScript=c:\path\to\perl.exe "%1" %*` [download] so that it works when clicking on Perl scripts who have spaces in their path/name. And that is correct for Win2k. - tye	[reply] [d/l]
