( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
A couple of simple things if you had performance difficulties. After you have the $notifyObj you will notice that I don't actually use the Notify portion of Win32::ChangeNotify. You need to use the Tk timer event to check the file, you will see from the line:
$mw->repeat( 2000, \&checkNotify );
That I use the Tk internal timer to call checkNotify, then in that sub I do:
my $rv = $notifyObj->wait(0);
So I call the notify object with a timeout of 0 - i.e. I ask it to return immediately with the status. Just to check, I have Benchmark already running in the application the code came from. Here are the timings for three runs through the changeNotofy:
A3G took: 8.82149e-005 wallclock secs ( 0.00 usr + 0.00 sys = 0.00 C +PU) A3G took: 0.000113964 wallclock secs ( 0.00 usr + 0.00 sys = 0.00 CP +U) A3G took: 8.60691e-005 wallclock secs ( 0.00 usr + 0.00 sys = 0.00 C +PU)
At a maximum of 114us I don't see a performance issue here.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
