I am trying to enumerate through all the fonts installed on my computer. For some reason, I cannot get Win32::TieRegistry to return the ValueNames from the Fonts registry key. The following script returns the error: "Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at C:/Perl/site/lib/Win32/TieRegistry.pm line 678." What am I doing wrong? The perl script at http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/funzone/games/tips08/gtip0118.mspx also returns the same error.
#!perl
use strict;
use Win32::TieRegistry;
$Registry->Delimiter("/"); # Set delimiter to "/".
$|=1;
my $fontskey = $Registry->{"LMachine/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows NT/Cur
+rentVersion/Fonts"} || die $^E;
for my $val ($fontskey->ValueNames)
{
print "$val\n";
}
exit;
This vbscript works fine
Const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002
strComputer = "."
Set objReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" &
+_
strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")
strKeyPath = "Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts"
objReg.EnumValues HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, _
strKeyPath,arrEntryNames
For Each strValue in arrEntryNames
Wscript.Echo strValue
