Hi, Having upgraded PDL to 2.011 on my various Windows builds of perl, I now wanted to rebuild PDL::Graphics::Prima to work with 2.011.
However, the prerequisite PDL::Drawing::Prima (version 0.10) fails to build. This is odd, as (IIRC) it built fine last time I built it (for 2.007). One thing that has changed is that PDL has been upgraded to 2.011. Could that be the problem ? (Instinctively, I say "no" - but I haven't checked that properly.) I've also upgraded Prima from 1.40 to 1.43, but when I re-installed Prima-1.40, the problem still remained. OK ... so the error with (eg) perl-5.16 is: ###################################### Building PDL-Drawing-Prima gcc -c -I"C:\MinGW\perl516\site\lib\PDL\Core" -I"C:\sisyphusion\Prima-1.43\include" -I"C:\sisyphusion\Prima-1.43\include\generic" -s -O2 -DWIN32 -DPERL_TEXTMODE_SCRIPTS -DPERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT -DPERL_IMPLICIT_SYS -fno-strict-aliasing -mms-bitfields -s -O2 "-DXS_VERSION=\"0.10\"" "-DVERSION=\"0.10\"" -I"C:\Mingw\perl516\lib\CORE" -I"C:\MinGW\include" -o "lib\PDL\Drawing\Prima.o" "lib\PDL\Drawing\Prima.c" In file included from lib/PDL/Drawing/Prima.pm.PL:285:0: C:\sisyphusion\Prima-1.43\include/apricot.h:43:28: fatal error: generic/config.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. error building dll file from 'lib\PDL\Drawing\Prima.c' at C:/MinGW/perl516/lib/ExtUtils/CBuilder/Platform/Windows.pm line 130. ###################################### Sure, generic/config.h doesn't exist. But I don't think it would've existed last time I successfully built PDL-Drawing-Prima-0.10, either. Unfortunately, I don't have any helpful log of the build when it was succeeding. Anyone got any advice on this ? It's obvious that either: a) I need to avoid the inclusion of C:\sisyphusion\Prima-1.43\include/apricot.h; or b) I need to dig up a "generic/config.h" from somewhere. Which is it ? (I've looked at apricot.h and the inclusion of generic/config.h is *unconditional*). I guess I can go digging, but it's really disconcerting me that I can't even answer the question "Why didn't this happen last time I built PDL-Drawing-Prima-0.10 ?" The build is actually scripted, so rebuilding PDL-Drawing-Prima-0.10 is just a matter of re-running the same script. This makes the failure even more puzzling. I guess there could've been a change to the script, or something else I've completely forgotten about.
