contribute ideas to this transition feel free to download it and give
it a try. But don't use v0.38_003 for anything outside of testing.
The Capture-Tiny dependency is something that's not ideal.
On perl-5.8.0 its test suite bails out with:
t/01-Capture-Tiny.t ........ Bailout called. Further testing stopped: OS
unsupported: Perl 5.8.0 is too buggy for Capture::Tiny
and on 5.8.9 it failed one test for me.
Naturally, I went ahead and installed it on both 5.8.0 and 5.8.9 anyway -
and discovered that the failures had no impact whatsoever upon EU::CG or
I::CPP-0.38_003.
I find that EU::CG doesn't guess very well wrt my 64-bit perls (on MS
Windows):
# Compiler guesses:
# EU::CppGuess: [g++ -xc++ ],
# Old Makefile.PL: [x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++].
# Linker guesses:
# EU::CppGuess: [ -lstdc++ ],
# Old Makefile.PL: [-lstdc++].
t/08cppguess.t ...... ok
Probably doesn't matter greatly - as I seem to be the only person in the
world (maybe even the entire universe !) who uses that compiler with perl.
What's with the -xc++ ? It doesn't seem to break anything when its included.
Cheers,
