Thanks to assistance from Dirk, I have determined that the current
version will indeed fix most of the remaining import problems I am
seeing, and in all likelihood remove the need for the FilterOrphan.cpp
that I hacked together... specifically of use will be the fixes
revision 264 (6 Sept 2006 - out-of-order actions within same second
for my "PIN-UNPIN-PIN" problem)
revision 273 (17 Jan, ken-widetime branch fixes)
In order to run a newer version I would need to set up a suitable perl
environment... I'm sure this is simple when you know what you're doing
and which interpreter works, etc. but so far I've not had success and
feel like I'm beating my head against a wall!
I tried (the very first time I wanted to run the script) using the perl
interpreter that comes with SVK, but this doesn't have several required
modules, and it was non-obvious how to add them...
I tried downloading and installing ActivePerl, as this seemed to be
recommended for Win32. The Perl Package Manager, however, denied the
existence of some of the required modules, for example DBD-SQLite2 is
shown as "not currently available" at
http://ppm4.activestate.com/BuildStatus/5.8-D.html
ActivePerl also got horribly confused when I tried to use CPAN to
install this, with compile errors all over the place (it picked up my
Microsoft C++ compiler).
I tried installing Strawberry perl - this looked promising due to being
packaged with a presumably more suitable compiler, but the packages
containing Time::CTime and XML::Simple get test errors, and DBD::SQLite2
gives a compile error during the make process...
Perhaps someone more familiar with setting up a suitable environment for
running this could get a simple list of what needs installing from where
using which commands to get a minimal environment that allows this tool
to be run...
... or perhaps some way to have an "unpackaged" version of the supplied
.exe so that the perl scripts can be replaced with a newer version?
Any takers?
