All,
Over the last week or so you'll have seen a number of commits from me -
this was all heading towards being able to commit the
Win32::GUI::DropFiles code that I've been working on.
The currently committed code bases compiles and all tests pass under the
following environments:
Platform Perl Compiler
win98 AS Perl 5.6.1 MS VC6/nmake
win98 AS Perl 5.6.1 gcc 3.4.5 (mingw-special)/name
win98 cygwin 5.8.7 gcc 3.4.4 (cygming-special)/nmake
win98 AS Perl 5.8.7 MS VC6/nmake
win98 AS Perl 5.8.7 gcc 3.4.5 (mingw-special)/name
win2k AS Perl 5.6.1 MS VC7/nmake
win2k AS Perl 5.6.1 gcc 3.4.2 (mingw-special)/name
win2k cygwin 5.8.7 gcc 3.4.4 (cygming-special)/nmake
win2k AS Perl 5.8.7 MS VC7/nmake
win2k AS Perl 5.8.7 gcc 3.4.2 (mingw-special)/name
I hope that the implementation committed conforms to what we discussed
on this list some weeks ago now - I think it does, and it includes a
pretty comprehensive test suite.
There is one problem that I have encountered with the build process:
under AS Perl 5.6.1 ExtUtils::MakeMaker has a bug (EU::MM v5.45 that is
fixed in EU::MM v5.47). If you want to build under AS perl 5.6.1 you'll
need to upgrade your EU:MM - alternatively I can point out how to
manually edit the generated Makefile to fix both the subdirs and test
targets.
As always, any reports of success and/or failure are welcome.
Regards,
Rob.
