Win32::SoundRec for Re: recording sound with perl under win32?

Looking for similar info, I stumbled across Win32::SoundRec today.

Nearly a year later, did you ever make any progress with this project? I remember reading the same article and thinking it would be a neat project.

Now, does anyone know how hard it would be to implement this on the Perl PocketPC WinCE platform?

I haven't really done much since I couldn't find a proper way of accessing the mic, and didn't want to bother with Windows API calls. Thanks for the info, I'll check out that module, maybe I'll actually finish it :) I didn't even know perl was ported to the PocketPC. Since Win32::SoundRec uses 'winmm.dll', I don't think it would work on PocketPC... but I could be wrong.	[reply]

Yep, you can find PerlCE 5.6.x at this site. I haven't played with it in awhile, but it does have Win32::API, Win32::OLE, and some other modules ported. I think Win32::Sound and SoundRec are essentially just calls to Win32::API, but I haven't investigated beyond that. It looks as if the PerlCE port has some new life. You can find PerlCE 5.8.x up on PerlCE.sourceforge.net. I ran out of space on my ipaq, so perl was one of the first toys that had to go :( Anyone want to buy an ipaq3635 so I can buy a new ipaq5450?
