All,

Is there a solution to the problem of having to use

perl -I /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/cygwin-thread-multi-64int/

when executing any examples, or use the facilities in perl-libwin32. See an
example below:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/share/doc/perl-libwin32-0.191/Sound$ ./test.pl
use: not found

File '\nWin32::Sound version ,' [ '/nWin32::Sound version ,' ] does ** NOT
** exist - skipping printing this file.
File '::Sound::VERSION,' [ '::Sound::VERSION,' ] does ** NOT ** exist -
skipping printing this file.
File ' Test Program\n' [ '/usr/share/doc/perl-libwin32-0.191/Sound/ Test
Program/n' ] does ** NOT ** exist - skipping printing this file.

Finished.

File 'by Aldo Calpini <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n\n' [
'/usr/share/doc/perl-libwin32-0.191/Sound/by Aldo Calpini
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>/n/n' ] does ** NOT ** exist - skipping printing this file.

Finished.

File 'Playing 'welcome.wav' synchronously...' [
'/usr/share/doc/perl-libwin32-0.191/Sound/Playing 'welcome.wav'
synchronously...' ] does ** NOT ** exist - skipping printing this file.

Finished.

./test.pl: 7: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

Note: This generates an error.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/share/doc/perl-libwin32-0.191/Sound$ perl -I
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/cygwin-thread-multi-64int/ test.pl

Win32::Sound version 0.47 Test Program
by Aldo Calpini <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Playing 'welcome.wav' synchronously...OK
Playing 1 second of 'welcome.wav' asynchronously...OK
Stopping sound...OK
Playing system exit sound...OK

Now it doesn't (and the sound played fine).

This is true of all the other examples under
/usr/share/doc/perl-libwin32-0.191. This tells me that I must either use the
perl -I... syntax to use the new library routines, or put this in the magic
line (haven't tried this, so I don't know if it will work - I would assume
it would).

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/share/doc/perl-libwin32-0.191/Win32CORE/tests$
$ perl -I /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/cygwin-thread-multi-64int/
win32core.pl

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/share/doc/perl-libwin32-0.191/Win32CORE/tests$

The date/time stamp reported by win32core.pl doesn't make any sense - the
GMT does, NOT the local - I am on Central US time (as reported by date).
