I can try to get automated_pp_test.pl running on cygwin. Bear in mind that
I do not know C and I did not have to do with writing any PAR or pp code, so
I can only help from the testing side of things. Currently,
automated_pp_test.pl works just fine from a Windows command prompt. Now,
on to cygwin ...
Let me ask some questions. I currently have (from uname -a)
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 quartz 1.5.5(0.94/3/2) 2003-09-20 16:31 i686 unknown unknown
Cygwin
My cygwin INC is as shown below
$ perl -wle 'print for @INC'
c:\cygwin\usr\ActivePerl\Perl\lib
c:\cygwin\usr\ActivePerl\Perl\site
c:\cygwin\usr\ActivePerl\Perl\site\lib
C:\cygwin\lib
C:\cygwin\lib\perl5\5.8.2
C:\cygwin\lib\perl5\site_perl\5.8.2
C:/cygwin/lib
I cannot get PAR to install due to needed modules. I am stuck trying to get
needed modules.
perl -MCPAN does not work.
/usr/ActivePerl/Perl/bin/ppm.bat does not work
/usr/ActivePerl/Perl/bin/ppm3.bat does not work
I would like to try
perl -MCPANPLUS -e shell
and go from there, but I cannot. I downloaded CPANPLUS.pm into both
c:\cygwin\lib\perl5\site_perl\5.8.2
and
c:\cygwin\user\ActivePerl\Perl\site\lib
to no avail. I get
----------------paste
$ perl -MCPANPLUS -e shell
Can't locate CPANPLUS/I18N.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
c:\cygwin\usr\ActivePerl\Perl\lib c:\cygwin\us
r\ActivePerl\Perl\site c:\cygwin\usr\ActivePerl\Perl\site\lib C:\cygwin\lib
C:\cygwin\lib\perl5\5.8.

c:\cygwin\usr\ActivePerl\Perl\site\lib/CPANPLUS.pm line 16.
Compilation failed in require.

After doing a search, I have found that I18N.pm does not exist on my
machine. The only reference to I18N.pm seems to be at
http://search.cpan.org/~autrijus/CPANPLUS-0.049/lib/CPANPLUS/I18N.pm
however, that file holds the description of I18N.pm, not the source
code itself, and there are no links to the real I18N.pm
Help!

This isn't an urgent problem, thanks for later reply

Hey, we lost cygwin support during the past few versions of PAR;
I had not tracked whether it's a problem due to recent cygwin/cygperl,
or if it's a problem with PAR.
Sadly, my laptop is broken and I will not be able to investigate this
until 72 hours from now. :-/

Any reason why ActivePerl (or self-compiled Perl using MingW / VC6)
would not work for your purpose?
Thanks,

Hello
I'm trying to install PAR on Win32 (cygwin, not activestate) from perl
-MCPAN -e shell, however problems happen :(, it seems to fail several tests
on t/2-pp.t automated_pp_test.pl, and prevents the make install since too
many errors roll up.
Sadly I can't copy/paste full error log because cygwin window doesn't seem
to allow copy/paste (mouse doesn't work ..), but messages are :
- t/2-pp................. NOK number# Failed test (automated_pp_test.pl at
line 5180)
- DIED. FAILED tests 1-3, 6, 11, 14-30
- 68.75% of tests from 2-pp failed (22/32 ok)
PAR 0.80, Windows XP, perl 5.8 and latest cygwin setup.
I really like PAR (works fine on my *nix) but I need to produce a win32
.exe from my script, so I'm lost.
Thanks for any support
