We've been recently hitting this compilation failure (on Windows). For example,
set ASM=ml64 /c /Cp /Cx /Zi perl crypto\x86_64cpuid.pl tmp32dll\x86_64cpuid.asm ml64 /c /Cp /Cx /Zi /Fotmp32dll\x86_64cpuid.obj tmp32dll\x86_64cpuid.asm Assembling: tmp32dll\x86_64cpuid.asm tmp32dll\x86_64cpuid.asm(1) : error A2088: END directive required at end of file Microsoft (R) Macro Assembler (x64) Version 8.00.50727.762 This seems to coincide with moving the VM and enabling two processors, and changing that to one processor seems to fix it. Our hypothesis (as yet untested) is that the perl script is calling the other perl script (the xlate one): open STDOUT,"| \"$^X\" $xlate $flavour $output"; then writes to STDOUT and then at the end close STDOUT; # flush might it be that the subprocess continues after this script ends, and so (sometimes) the output appears truncated (but looks fine whenever you look at it after a failure)? In which case, wouldn't a fix be to add a call to wait at the end of these scripts? Anyone know enough about Perl (perhaps specifically on Windows) to know whether this is plausible? ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
