I have tried to use a more recent version of perl which has feature 'signatures' on Centos 7 without success. It is basically possible to use more recent versions of perl, but it doesn´t seem possible to bring lighttpd to use such versions. It insists on not loading the libraries required by more recent versions of perl. And I can not get around running the perl programs as CGI. When I encountered this problem, I tought it´s easy enough to modify the programs, but it turns out that this feature is virtually a requirement. Without it, I will have to go to ridiculous lengths to simulate what it does, which is error prone and costs performance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
