Hi,
so my (latest) problem is that I'm running embedded, persistent perl in
a manner very similar to the perldoc on perlembed (which I've attached
at the bottom of this e-mail)
All of this is straight forward enough. But sometimes the script that is
being run needs to be debugged, and my users ALL use ptkdb. If this were
being run under UNIX, the problem would be quickly solved. I would just
have the user modify his first line to read:
#!/apps/bin/perl -d:ptkdb
When a UNIX user does this in a persistent, embedded perl, he gets the
perl/Tk debugger to start up, albeit a little weirdly (he has to reload
the file).
Since VMS perl seems to ignore the #!/apps... line I really don't know
what to do.
Support for the #!/apps... on VMS was put into blead a while back, and
may be in the unstable development release. I have not kept track.
It should be possible to back port that code into a patch for a
production release of Perl.
The patch for blead was written assuming that support for full length
filenames is present.
