Better, just use an C statement.

Conditionals evaluate the truth of a boolean expression by testing

It even worked on one system I tried on which was not the one I built it on. :-) If any of you is interested - though it does not contain the perl 6 plugin yet - you can download the first experimental version of a Perl 5 package containing Padre. http://perlide.org/download/binary/perl-5.10.1-xl-0.01.tar.gz after downloading $ tar xzf perl-5.10.1-xl-0.01.tar.gz and $ ./perl-5.10.1-xl-0.01/perl/bin/padre.sh notice one needs to run the shell file! please check it out and let me know what distribution and what version have you tried and if it worked or not. Based on this, tomorrow I'll attempt to build a version that includes the Perl 6 plugin as well. Or go back to the drawing board to find another way to build it. Gabor

I'm a vim fanboy, and there's a pretty decent syntax hilighting module for Perl 6 here: http://github.com/petdance/vim-perl Not a full IDE, but enough for me. Cheers, Moritz

[perl #70886] mt.exe fails to create perl6.exe.manifest -- why is it even trying?
I think I can reproduce the issue. For a reason I haven't found yet, an installed parrot's pbc_to_exe runs the following. mt.exe -nologo -manifest perl6.exe.manifest -outputresource:perl6.exe.manifest;1 The correct command would be as follows. mt.exe -nologo -manifest perl6.exe.manifest -outputresource:perl6.exe;1 pbc_to_exe in the build directory does the right thing, the installed pbc_to_exe does not.

Honestly I tried to install it by September, and some dependences were outdated in my Ubuntu 9.04 box (I tried the manual install), then decided to wait for 9.10 (and honestly I haven't upgraded it yet :-P) I'm installing it right now using Perl 5.10.1 on top of Ubuntu 9.04 using CPAN.

Don't start a war on whether it's an IDE. I just wanted to mention it. Find it in the Pugs repository. Kind regards, Steffen -- Steffen Schwigon

I'd expect those two lines of code to yield the same results. Either
my expectations are wrong, or Rakudo is.

should that work?
I don't think so
std: my $a; BEGIN { $a = 42 }
std 29276: ok 00:01 106m
ng: my $a; BEGIN { $a = 42 }
ng 7fc485: sh: ./perl6: No such file or directory
moritz_: oh yeah, ng doesn't work.
in p6eval, that is.
it works fine locally. :)
and it accepts that oneliner.

Perl 6 IDEs
Hi perlsixers, we've been working a bit on Perl 6 lately [1] and some work, even the basic coding, would be great if we use some IDE. I'm a regular Eclipse user and EPIC seems the natural choice for me, but it doesn't support Perl 6 (yet). Also tied to install Padre on top of Ubuntu but just went to nowhere :-P Did anyone tried any other Perl 6 aware IDE ?? Thanks ! [1] : http://sites.google.com/site/perl6hackaton/ -- Víctor A.
