Subject: Can't install Inline::Java
Hi all,
I already asked this on the Perl beginners list and have been referred
here. Hopefully someone on this list is able to help me.
This is the right place, but probably not the right person :-)
There's already a bug report about this at
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=37591
which includes a reply from the author. See if that helps.
I tried to install Inline::Java from CPAN and it didn't work. The
install process just stopped after some time. When I tried it the second
time it stopped again at the same time.
t/10_2_shared_start.t .. 1/3
One thing you could try is to 'cd' to the build directory and run 'make
test' yourself.
If it still hangs, try running:
perl -Mblib t/10_2_shared_start.t
and see if it still hangs. (The bug report suggests to me that it won't hang
when run this way.)
While you're in that directory, you could also run 'make install' (or 'sudo
make install' if that's needed). Then at least you'll be able to use the
module. You may find that the issue that prevents the test suite from
running to completion is not a problem wrt the things that you want to do
with Inline::Java. My understanding of that bug report is that the problem
is with Test::Harness, rather than with Inline::Java itself - so installing
the module seems a reasonable thing to do.
Cheers,
Rob
