Hi, Anyone managed to build 0.70 on ActiveState perl 5.6.1 ? I have trouble doing it. I'm running build 626 - maybe the problem is with that particular patchlevel build .... dunno.
And I don't *need* to have PAR running on ActiveState perl 5.6.1, so it's of little consequence to me, personally. (No problem on any of my other Win32 perls.) Running nmake proceeds ok until: cl -c -Zm1000 -nologo -O1 -MD -DNDEBUG -DWIN32 -D_CONSOLE -DNO_STRICT -D HAVE_DES_FCRYPT -DPERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT -DPERL_IMPLICIT_SYS -DPERL_MSVCRT_R EADF IX -I"D:\Perl\lib\CORE" static.c static.c at which point it hangs. After a minute or so I got a pop-up informing me that I was running low on virtual memory, at which point I killed it, which produced: NMAKE : NMAKE : fatal error U1058: terminated by user Stop. Compiler terminating. Please wait.fatal error U1058: terminated by user Stop. and about twenty seconds later I got: .......... Abort complete. I note that progress has been made in cleaning up par's temporary directory. All that's being left behind now is the *empty* directory 'par_priv.1224.tmp', 'par_priv.1328.tmp', etc. Can't be too far away from cleaning that untidy feature up entirely :-) Bit of a curiosity - I built an executable of a perl script that contained only 'print $$;'. With 0.69, if the executable printed '1224', then the temp directory would be called 'par_priv.1224.tmp'. But with 0.70, the numbers no longer match. Anyway, that's about it from me. That PAR works at all on *any* platform still astounds me :-) Cheers, Rob
