Win32::OLE Class Variables

The Win32::OLE module defines certain class variables that set default behavior for automation usage:

$Win32::OLE::CP

Determines the codepage used by all translations between Perl strings and Unicode strings used by the OLE interface. The default value is CP_ACP, which is the default ANSI codepage. It can also be set to CP_OEMCP, which is the default OEM codepage. Both constants are not exported by default.

$Win32::OLE::LCID

Controls the locale identifier used for all OLE calls. It is set to LOCALE_NEUTRAL by default. Check the Win32 module for other locale-related information.

$Win32::OLE::Warn

Determines the behavior of the Win32::OLE module when an error happens. Valid values are:

0

Ignores error, returns undef.

1

Uses Carp::carp if $^W is set (-w option).

2

Always uses Carp::carp.

3

Uses Carp::croak.

The error number and message (without Carp line/module info) are also available through the Win32::OLE->LastError method.
