Hello to everyone,

I need some help. I have one piece of code in perl which interacts with executable file - pass some variables and get results back. I don't understand perl and want to convert it to asp.net (or even pure asp). Here is the code:

----------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl

use CGI;

$min=CGI:aram("min");
$cin=CGI:aram("cin");
$invoice=CGI:aram("invoice");
$descr=CGI:aram("descr");
$longdescr=CGI:aram("longdescr");
$total=CGI:aram("total");
$expires=CGI:aram("expires");
$country=CGI:aram("country");
$date=CGI:aram("date");

$urlok="http://www.any_domain.bg/demo/ok.html";
$urlcancel="http://www.any_domain.bg/demo/cancel.html";

$longdescr =~ s/\n/\\n/g;

$qry = "TYPE = REGISTER\n" .
"MIN = $min\n" .
"CIN = $cin\n" .
"INVOICE = $invoice\n" .
"DESCR = $descr\n" .
"LONGDESCR = $longdescr\n" .
"TOTAL = $total\n" .
"EXPIRES = $expires\n" .
"COUNTRY = $country\n" .
"DATE = $date\n" ;

$q_result = `echo -n "$qry" | ./eccli www.epay.bg .`;

chomp $q_result;

if ($q_result eq "Y"){
$urlok=CGI::escape( $urlok );
$urlcancel=CGI::escape( $urlcancel );
print "Location: https://www.datamax.bg/ec/paylogin.cgi?MIN=$min&INVOICE=$invoice&URLOK=$urlo k&URLCANCEL=$urlcancel\n\n";
}
else
{
print "Content type: text/html \n\n
Грешка при изпращане на информацията!
status = $q_result";
}

----------------------------------------------------------

I will deeply appreciate any help placed here.
Many thanks in advance.

Warmhearted Wishes,
Kaloyan

i dont understand perl much but if you tell us what the goal of this script is perhaps we can point you in the direction of one already written in asp or asp.net

Thanks koncept,

It is related to e-payments. I reckon that will be very difficult to find matching script in asp/asp.net because this system is bulgarian (where i come from) and seems to be not quite compatible with other similar systems and payment gateways over the world (at least these wich i have worked on).

So when we have a deep look in above perl script will see that it interacts with executable file (eccli), passing some variables through $qry and then get back results. The magic key here is how to make it with asp/asp.net.

i would try posting in the perl section, someone there maybe able to better explain how the script is working
