My patch calls, similarly, ~perl mkconfig.pl where a simple ~./mkconfig used to be called. Since there is no mkconfig file distributed or checked in, my patch should sync what we are generating. It also has the advantage or simplifying by removing the unneeded intermediates. Regardless, I think you have answered my question. I will commit the change and your previous build process should still suffice. Have you thought about putting the `perl mkconfig.pl' and `perl fix-msvc-mak.pl' calls into the MSVC build files (is that even possible with fix-msvc-mak.pl?)? It's always nice to encode our build knowledge into automation when possible.

RE: windows-NT/mkconfig.pl & windows-NT/fix-msvc-mak.pl change
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi Derek, I'm slow to understand the goal. I'm coming to the conclusion what you're trying is eliminate the difference between: *** config.h.in, generated by mkconfig: as opposed to: *** config.h.in, generated by mkconfig.pl: and if that's the case then I believe it's not a Windows or UNIX issue. I propose it's an operation difference issue as follows: The UNIX make process generates intermediates: fix-msvc-mak mkconfig of which "mkconfig" is used later in the build and "fix-msvc-mak" is built but not used in the build. Previously I wasn't aware of the existence of the intermediates on UNIX and of course they don't exist on Windows. The commands I ran on both Windows and UNIX are: cd ccvs perl windows-NT/fix-msvc-mak.pl cd windows-NT perl mkconfig.pl cd .. which in the case of "mkconfig" will generate: *** config.h.in, generated by mkconfig.pl: when run on either Windows and UNIX. I believe no patch is required. I will correct my process now that I understand why the intermediates exist.

First off, the problem cited in your output is not caused by the patch
I just sent, but I'll deal with it anyhow.
Secondly, I think I would prefer that you use a more modern Perl
release (I've had good luck with the version shipped by ActiveState -
the installer is quick & easy & it doesn't require any external
libraries). If you really don't want to, you could replace the mv
call with a wrapper function which calls rename, followed by a call to
copy and a call to unlink when the initial rename fails. This is
necessary because the source and build dirs might be on different file
systems and a simple rename will usually fail in this case.
File::Copy::mv already handles this.

Yes I will but I'd appreciate an enumerated definition of "the programs"
or a list of commands to run specifying which platform (Windows 2000 or
Solar 8 Intel) to use.

OK, I'm picking up the goal is run whatever on both Windows and UNIX to
make sure the generated results are identical.
File "mkconfig.pl" has changes that prevent is from running with PERL
implementation supplied with old MKS Tool Kit I have on Windows 2000.
Error output and MKS PERL version information follow at message end.
I can install a modern PERL binary release which will take some time
but I could report back results in a day or two.
What's you preference (1) fix "mkconfig.pl" to run with MKS PERL I have
or (2) install a modern PERL binary release?
