[MacPerl] hwo to write resource ?

[lolo@ipbs.fr (Laurent Bardi)]

hi,

material: macperl5.13,macOS7.5.3,LC630 20Mo +virtual (40Mo of total ram)
I m trying to do simple things such as
ResToText (reading a resource in a resource fork an returning it):
IT WORKS!!!( script at the end of the msg)
but the TextToRes (writing the resource ) NOT!
I gave you the source, if somebody could explain me why ???

($temp is the Handle, $a the text)
I ve try to do 
....
$temp = Get1Resource($rtype,$id);
if (!defined $temp) { print "OOOOOOOOPPS : error!!\n";}
$temp->set(0,length($a),$a);
UpdateResFile $RFD;
....

AND

....
$temp = Get1Resource($rtype,$id);
if (!defined $temp) { print "OOOOOOOOPPS : error!!\n";}
RemoveResource($temp);
$temp = new Handle($a);
AddResource($rtype,$id,"");
UpdateResFile $RFD;
.....

many, many thanks in advance



sub ResToText
#
# given a file,rtype,id return the text resource
#
{
	local($file,$rtype,$id)=@_;
	local ($RFD,$temp,$a);
	if ( defined OpenResFile($file) )
	{
		print "res of $file opened \n";
		$RFD = CurResFile();
		$temp = Get1Resource($rtype,$id);
  if (!defined $temp) { die "OOOOOOOOPPS : error!!\n";}
		$a = $temp->get(0,$temp->size);
		print "longueur len".length($a)."\n";
		print "longueur size".$temp->size."\n";
		CloseResFile $RFD;
		print "res of $file close \n";
		}
else 
	{
		print "no res in file $file \n";
	}
return $a;
}
