perl-5.8-win32-bin.tar.gz missing files
Greetings. I just installed the great perl-5.8-win32-bin.tar.gz package that Randy Kobes mantains on uwinnipeg. Two folders are missing from site/lib/Win32Api : Registry/cRegistry.pc File/cFile.pc This is an installation bug of libwin32 - the files are generated but not installed, so they must be manually moved to their intended destinations (I was bit by the same thing and mailed the package maintainer about a month ago). These are not binary files, so they can(?) be copied from a same version installation of win32 (I used what I had on a 5.6.1-33 and they appear to work fine). Not quite in the bug category, I observed that the shipped version of File::Basename::fileparse now croaks on calling fileparse(undef). This seems a bit radical to me (given that fileparse('') just shuts up) - carp would be fair, but croak seems pretty darn inhospitable to me... Just my .02 Cheers, alf
Mention LoadFile in the mp2 docs?
Greetings. From: http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/config/config.html#Enabling_mod_perl [...] Win32 users need to make sure that the path to the Perl binary (e.g., C:\Perl\bin) is in the PATH environment variable. [...] Is it not true that the directive LoadFile C:\foo\perl58.dll makes path modifications unnecessary? If so, it should perhaps be mentioned here. (With caveats, as situations where Registry scripts are handled by one - LoadFil-ed - perl version and CGI scriptse by another one - or not at all - would probably be confusing...). Cheers, alf
