Re:Help with Mac Bundling

[Mattia Barbon mattia.bar...@libero.it]

  Hi,

 I am the maintainer for SDL Perl. We are having trouble bundling for MacOSX.
 We are using perl Build bundle.

 We have some success with it but we can't even run 'cpan -t .' on it. I have
 asked around an padre users say wxperl bundles well on MacOSX.  But it uses
 Makefile.PL. Is there a good example of MacOSX bundling (that works) with
 Module::Build.

  If by 'bundling' you mean how wxPerl creates a 'wxPerl' binary that
can access the display/get the focus/etc, it's done with some custom code that 
should be easy to translate to Module::Build.

Mattia

Contacting JOEYATES and GMPASSOS

[Mattia Barbon]

  Hello everybody,
I'd like to contact Joe Yates (JOEYATES) and Graciliano Monteiro
Passos (GMPASSOS), the former for OpenOffice::UNO module, the
latter for Wx::ActiveX.  I sent them an email to their cpan.org
addresses more than a week ago and got no answer, and it might be
that their CPAN contact info is out of date.  Does anybody know
if the contact info on CPAN is accurate and if not can point me
to their current email address?

Thanks in advance!

Module name advice: Mobile::P2kMoto

[Mattia Barbon]

  Hi,
I am making the wrappers for the p2kmoto library
(http://moto4lin.sf.net); despite the name, the library
should work on Win32 and Mac too.

  Looking on search.cpan.org, it seems that Phone is not a TLN,
while Mobile is already used, so I'd go for Mobile::P2kMoto,
but of course advice on the name is welcome :-) 

Mobile::P2kMoto::openPhone( 3000 );
Mobile::P2kMoto::FS::searchRequest( '/a/*' );
Mobile::P2kMoto::FS::fileList( sub { print $_[0]-name, \n } );

Thanks in advance,
Mattia

 Why not Mobile::Moto4Lin to match the library?

  Because the library is called p2kmoto :-) moto4lin
is a GUI program.  They are maintained as part of the same
project.  Also Lin recalls Linux, while the library is
supposed to be cross platform (I have seen code to that effect
in the sources).

  For consistency with WWW::Mechanize and Test::WWW::Mechanize (and other 
  Test::WWW tools), I'd suggest going with WWW::Selenium and 
  Test::WWW::Selenium.
 
 I second that (I was actually going to say the same thing).

  I agree. Thank you both!

Module name advice

[Mattia Barbon \[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

  Hi,
I am writing a Perl driver for Selenium, a website
testing tool [1], and I need to choose a proper name
for the module.

  Having discarded a top-level namespace, I am now
inclined to use WWW::Selenium for the Selenium driver
and Test::Selenium for the TAP-emitting module
to be used in test scripts.

  Does anybody have suggestions?

Thanks!

  I compiled the DateTime module with MingW and CPAN Perl 5.8.7, and the
  DLL worked with Activestate 5.8.3 (I just copied it to the auto
  subdirectory)
  Is this just luck, or was it supposed to work?
 
 It should work. MinGW uses the same msvcrt(?) C runtime library that 

snip correct and detailed explanation

 In general, it's not the compiler that matters, just the libraries. You 
 cannot mix runtime libraries (well, you can if you're carefull, but not 
 generally).
 
 As long as you compile extensions that use the same version of the same 
 C runtime library, you should be safe.

  Correct. The wxPerl PPMs for ActivePerl I create since some years are
compiled with MinGW. I routinely use MinGW to install modules via CPANPLUS.
See ExtUtils::FakeConfig/Config_m on CPAN for a way to partially automate
the process.
