Hello, I've been having a problem using pp with deep dependencies. I've scoured the internet and could find very little to address this problem. On stackoverflow.com I found the following posts:
This does have a portability problem though. PAR has problems with compiled code and dynamic libraries. Maybe that doesn't matter in this case, but it has mattered to some of m customers. - brian d foy<http://stackoverflow.com/users/8817/brian-d-foy> Jul 31 at 17:32 Why haven't you reported these things as bugs? It's not like you don't know how to reach me. Furthermore, how does it have problems with compiled code? As far as I know, this simply means that you'll have to create a .par for each target platform: It's a binary format after all. In principle, it should handle shared libraries alright. - tsee<http://stackoverflow.com/users/13164/tsee> Aug 1 at 8:26 It would indeed appear that PAR Packer has the problems indicated by Brian. You may be interested in my stackoverflow post here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1424181/can-par-packer-generate-stand-alone-scripts In particular I see two common issues: 1. Issues with something like Log::Any::Adapter::Null required by CHI::Driver::File 2. Issues with compiled modules such as Scalar::Util required by Compress::Zlib a.
