My builds were for ASPerl 5.12.3, SPP 5.12.3, and the
default cygwin perl 5.10.1 so I guess I dodged a bullet
on that. I did spend a lot of time trying to handle the
crash from the sys_map routine but was unable to do
so...
Once the dependencies are all installed, PDL from git builds and tests
fine for me on all of my perls (except 5.8.0).
I've yet to test on 5.8.0 because I haven't worked out how to satisfy
dependencies there - I'll get back to that today.
I think the only other thing that Windows users (using other than
perl-5.12) would have to do is to force install PerlIO::Layers. I'll see
if I can improve on its Windows-handling capabilities.
Ok. I'm not sure what the specfic requirement for the
PerlIO::Layers for the implementation of File::Map.
Maybe it could be made an optional one. In the meantime,
I'm planning to work around the sys_map bug by adding a
pdl_sys_map() internal to PDL for us to use until the
fix is implemented in the File::Map distribution.
Chris, as regards the recent mapflex/mapfraw feature request submitted
to the sourceforge tracker, I've not noticed anything in the test suite
that indicates any such issue on Windows.
I gather this simply indicates that there's currently no testing of this
in the test suite. But if that's not the case, could you let me know and
also list the test files that make this shortcoming evident.
(I'm just wondering whether I've failed to notice something ... that's
all :-)
This was just me updating the already existing feature
request with the info that a git implementation was
available.
