This module will also let you access processor information, including processor family (386,486,etc), speed, name, vendor, and revision information. =head1 DESCRIPTION =over 4 Module provides two functions: =item MemoryStatus B(%mHash,[$format]); %mHash - The hash that will receive the results. Certain values can be set prior to the call to retrieve a subset. (See below) $format - Optional parameter. Used to set the order of magnitude of the results. (See below) Determines the current memory status of a Win32 machine. Populates %mHash with the results. Function returns undef on failure. Values returned through the hash: MemLoad - Windows NT 3.1 to 4.0: The percentage of approximately the last 1000 pages of physical memory that is in use. - Windows 2000 and later: The approximate percentage of total physical memory that is in use. TotalPhys - Total amount of physical memory (RAM). - See CAVEATS below about the accuracy of this value. AvailPhys - Available physical memory (RAM). TotalPage - Allocated size of page (swap) file. AvailPage - Available page file memory. TotalVirtual - Total physical + maximum page file. AvailVirtual - Total amount of available memory. Values returned through the hash can also be specified by setting them before the function is called. my %mHash = (TotalPhys => 0); Win32::MemoryInfo::MemoryStatus(%mHash); Will return only the total physical memory. MemoryStatus return values in bytes by default. This can be changed with the $format parameter. Valid values for $format are: B - Bytes (default) KB - Kilobytes MB - Megabytes GB - Gigabytes =item ProcessorInfo $proc = B([%pHash]); Determines the processor information of a Win32 computer. Returns a "quick" value or undef on failure. Can also populate %pHash with detailed information on all processors present in the system. $proc - THIS VALUE HAS BEEN MADE OBSOLETE - FOR WINDOWS NT AND LATER. RELY ON IT - AT YOUR OWN RISK. - Contains a numerical representation of the - processor level for Intel machines. For - example, a Pentium will return 586. - For non-Intel Windows NT systems, the - possible return values are: - PPC: PowerPC - MIPS: MIPS architecture - ALPHA: Alpha architecture - UNKNOWN: Unknown architecture %pHash - Optional parameter. Will be filled with - information about all processors. Values returned through hash: NumProcessors - The number of processors installed ProcessorN - A hash containing all info for processor N Each ProcessorN hash contains the values: Identifier - The identifier string for the processor - as found in the registry. The computer I'm - currently using returns the string - "x86 Family 6 Model 7 Stepping 3" VendorIdentifier - The vendor name of the processor MHZ - The speed in MHz of the processor - This is not a calculated value, but the value - that is recorded in the Windows registry. - This value will be -1 for pre Windows NT - systems (95/98/Me). ProcessorName - The name of the processor, such as - "Intel Pentium", or "AMD Athlon". PLEASE read the note about the MHz value in Caveats, below. =back No functions are exported. =head1 INSTALLATION Installation is simple. Follow these steps: perl Makefile.PL nmake nmake test nmake install Copy the SystemInfo.html file into whatever directory you keep your documentation in. I haven't figured out yet how to automatically copy it over, sorry. Nmake can be downloaded from http://download.microsoft.com/download/vc15/Patch/1.52/W95/EN-US/Nmake15.exe This module can also be installed as an ActiveState module by downloading the package from http://www.megatome.com/win32systeminfo This module can also be used by simply placing it /Win32 directory somewhere in @INC. This module requires Win32::API by Aldo Calpini Win32::TieRegistry by Tye McQueen =head1 CAVEATS The information returned by the MemoryStatus function is volatile. There is no guarantee that two sequential calls to this function will return the same information. On computers with more than 4 GB of memory, the MemoryStatus function can return incorrect information. Windows 2000 reports a value of -1 to indicate an overflow. Earlier versions of Windows NT report a value that is the real amount of memory, modulo 4 GB. On Intel x86 computers with more than 2 GB and less than 4 GB of memory, the MemoryStatus function will always return 2 GB for TotalPhys. Similarly, if the total available memory is between 2 and 4 GB, AvailPhys will be rounded down to 2 GB. If you are using a 64 bit processor AND your version of Perl has been compiled to be 64 bit aware, the values returned by MemoryStatus will be correct regardless of the amount of installed RAM. (At least it should. I don't have a 64 bit chip to test it on.) ProcessorInfo will only return the CPU speed that is reported in the Windows registry. This module used to include a DLL that performed a CPU speed calculation, but all of these new-fangled processors caused the code to break. I don't have the time or energy to rewrite the module so that it will play well with Dual Core, Hyperthreading, and what else. The value from the registry appears to be accurate on the machines I've tested this module on. Windows 9x/Me will return values of -1 for processor speed, as their registries don't store the MHz value. If you're using Win9x/Me and need the MHz value, use an older version of this module. Sorry. The ProcessorName value is also pulled straight from the registry. Correctly determining the processor's name requires throwing some assembly at it, and if you've read the previous paragraph you'll know that DLL that threw assembly at the processor has been removed from this module. All feedback on other configurations is greatly welcomed. =head1 CHANGES 0.01 - Initial Release 0.02 - Fixed CPU speed reporting for Win9x. Module now includes a DLL that performs the Win9x CPU speed determination. 0.03 - Fixed warning "use of uninitialized value" when calling MemoryStatus with no size argument. 0.04 - Fixed "GetValue" error when calling ProcessorInfo as non-admin user on WindowsNT - Fixed documentation bug: "AvailableVirtual" to "AvailVirtual" 0.05 - Fixed bug introduced in 0.03 where $format was ignored in MemoryStatus. All results were returned in bytes regardless of $format parameter. 0.06 - Added new entry to processor information hash to display the name of the processor. WindowsNT and 2K now use the DLL to determine CPU speed as well. 0.07 - Changed contact information. Recompiled DLL to remove some extraneous calls. 0.08 - Added more definitions for recent CPUs. Added dependency on version 0.40 of Win32::API. Reworked Win32::API calls. Changed calls in DLL to eliminate need to pack and unpack arguments. 0.09 - Eliminated cpuspd.dll. Should eliminate some of the headaches associated with using this module. It should now return CPU info for all flavors of Windows past Win9x without crashing. 0.10 - Added bug description for Perl Development Kit. Fixed link to ActiveState module location. 0.11 - Suppress warnings that come from Win32::API when running with the -w switch. Fix bug (http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=30894) where memory could grow uncontrollably. =head1 BUGS For versions 0.09 and forward, there is a compatibility bug with ActiveState's Perl Development Kit version 6. Apparently the PDK has been designed to expect the cpuspd.dll file to be present and fails against versions of this module that do not include the DLL anymore.
