Re^15: Trouble Installing Win32::GuiTest

Hi Rob, Thanks once again for your help. I have copied all dll files present in strawberry perl to c:\perl64\bin and ran the installation. Thankfully, I was able to install Win32::GuiTest module on perl64 successfully. But my problem still not solved reason being, I have a automated framework suite where I have used Win32::GuiTest module to test the GUI functionality of the windows application 32 bit and 64 bit. This module perfectly working fine for 32 bit application but for 64 bit application it fails for APIs like GetPopupHandle, GetListContents etc. Moreover with this I have one more module named "TreeView.pm" (Win32::GuiTest::TreeView) this module basically traverse the systreeview class and provide us the relevant information but this module also not working properly on windows 64 bit application. So, unfortunately again I got stuck and wondering now what to do and also want to know that this module Win32::GuiTest compiled as 64 bit by 64 bit compiler or its simply installed as 32 bit. Thanks.

for 64 bit application it fails for APIs like GetPopupHandle, GetListContents etc. I don't know whether that happens because all of the files you copied across have broken Ruben's compiler ... or whether its' something that's happening for other reasons. If you like to provide a small script that demonstrates your problem on 64-bit perls (and is something that I could run), I'll give it a run (using my 64-bit compiler, which I know to be unbroken) and see if I get the same problem. (Probably best to provide the demo in a new thread - I don't think there would be many people still following this thread.) Cheers, Rob	[reply]

FWIW: Win32::GuiTest version 1.60 compiles & tests okay, if a little noisily using MSVC 64-bit: <Reveal this spoiler or all in this thread> If there are any specific tests you want run for comparison purposes ...
