I just subscribed to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list, but
the faq (mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) indicates that
there is no FAQ available yet. (I was looking for the
inline mailing list archives)
Anyway, it's been a while since I last did a make test
with Inline and Inline::C. Since then I've upgraded
to the latest bleading-edge perl v5.9.0 DEVEL18374.
I went to the same directory I had tested it in before (Inline-0.44),
and attempted to go through the normal
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
etc
processes, but when I got to make test,
t/01syntax.....
in Inline-0.44/C seemed to consume many minutes of cpu time.
I aborted the test and tried again with similar results.
Then I did
strace -f make test
which slows things down a bit, and it went busy also
after opening/reading/closing the file C/t/typemap
I tried a regular make test again, but this time I
got a littler further, down to
t/02config.....
before going busy. (Each time I waited several minutes
before aborting with control-c)
What is strange is that the next time I tried to
run the make test command, it ran successfully.
I can reproduce this sequence after another make clean.
I think that the problem may be with the bleading-edge
perl, but I'm looking for ideas or simpler test cases
that might demonstrate the problem.
