Greetings,
I am trying to build mod_perl 1.99_13 on Win 2000 (VC 6.0).
In mod_perl-1.99_13\lib\ModPerl\BuildOptions.pm around lines 110 - 111
if (Apache::Build::WIN32()) { # MP_AP_PREFIX may not contain spaces require Win32; $val = Win32::GetShortPathName($val); }
Why do we need to require Win32.pm ?
Win32::GetShortPathName is in Perl Core.
I also have another doubt.
I want to avoid using Win32.pm. I have built perl 5.8.3 native on win32. I notice that mod_perl uses Win32::Process in Apache-Test\lib\Apache\TestServer.pm. If I ignore this usage or workaround it - can I safetly avoid using Win32::* (libwin32) w.r.t to mod_perl ?
You are talking about the Apache-Test suite, which is *not* mod_perl. Apache-Test/ subdir is bundled there only for your convenience. It's a project on its own.
