I've just uploaded a new developer's release of Marpa::R2
<https://metacpan.org/release/JKEGL/Marpa-R2-2.087_002>. Marpa::R2
2.087_002 is a release candidate. From an external point of view, there
is little change.
The main difference is that Libmarpa has been moved into a separate
repository. However, because the CPAN infrastructure does not
understand non-Perl dependencies, Marpa::R2 is bundled with a Libmarpa
distribution, which by default it builds as a static library and links
into the XS module. But all the development infrastructure for Libmarpa
has been moved out of the Marpa::R2 distributions, into Libmarpa's own
repository.
For the adventurous, it is now possible to build Marpa::R2 to link to a
separate Libmarpa library -- either shared or static. This is of
interest, for example, to re-packagers. For more, look at the INSTALL
documents at the top of the two repositories, and follow the relevant
references. (The immediate motive for this change is to help the Debian
packagers.)
A note to those who have been working on Win32 shared libraries for
Marpa: Since I have no way to test the building of Win32 libraries, and
the build process has been thoroughly refactored, the instructions on
how to build shared libraries with Win32 are now almost certainly
wrong. I still distribute these instructions with Libmarpa, but for the
time being I've added a note that they are outdated.
The first wave of CPANtesters tests looks good -- your tests are
appreciated!
Thanks, jeffrey
