Something like:

 dynamic_lib => {'OTHERLDFLAGS' => '-framework CoreFoundation'},

in your WriteMakefile parameters in Makefile.PL, I expect. :)

Yeah, I recently put an 80G drive in my iBook, and it makes a HUGE 
difference.  I highly recommend doing it - newegg.com has some good 
prices on stuff, and macsales.com is a good place to begin shopping.

Re: How to stat ... lstat!

[Chris Thorman]

I should be using lstat!

Doh.  Sorry for a silly question.  

Note to self: never post to list at 1AM. :-)

How to stat a symlink rather than its target dir?

[Chris Thorman]

Hi,

I'm trying to stat a symlink, but it seems I am always getting the stat of the 
destination of the link instead, so Fcntl macros like S_ISLNK of course are not 
working. 

But somehow perl's -l operator is still able to tell that the item is a link.

For example:

mkdir -p /mylink2; ln -sf mylink2 /mylink; 
perl -e 'use Fcntl ":mode"; printf "%06o: %d: %d\n", $m=(stat($p="/mylink"))[2], 
S_ISLNK($m), (-l $p)'

RESULT:

040755: 0: 1

EXPECTED:

120777: 1: 1

How can I get the stat for the link itself?

Any assistance would be appreciated.

P.S. In case you're wondering:

[Why do I want to use stat() instead of -l?  Because I am indexing an entire disk's 
worth of files and want to execute the minimum number of stat() calls.  Certainly I 
don't want to have to use -l with a path on every file -- I want to get the mode and 
other stat values once and then use the sys/stat.h (use Fcntl) macros S_ISLNK, 
S_ISDIR, etc.]

[Why do I care to distinguish symlinks? Because I generally don't want to traverse 
them in building my index.]
