Re^3: Can't pass parameters in Win32 Perl Scripts

One idea I have is, that possibly the filetype isn't set up correctly by whatever installs the association:

Q:\>ftype perl
perl="C:\Programme\perl\bin\perl.exe" "%1" %*

Q:\>type tmp.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl -l
print for @ARGV;

Q:\>tmp.pl  1 2 3 4 5
1
2
3
4
5
[download]

So on this machine, with this setup, it works. If the association is set up wrongly (which I can't check as I don't have access to a non-working machine at the moment), for example by double-clicking a .pl file and then choosing perl.exe, then likely the execution from the command line doesn't work either:


Hypothetical:\>ftype perl
perl="C:\Programme\perl\bin\perl.exe" "%1"

which I can't check as I don't have access to a non-working machine at the moment That's my problem, too. When I had access years ago, i was not knowlegdable enough to check the stuff out. I remember one other forum case, where it seemed that the ftype/assoc was set correct, though parameter passing was ascrew. Thus my question for a report of an actuall working repair.	[reply]
