Hi Everyone, Is there a mechanism which will allow me to create a pp'd binary which can self-update from a PAR::Repository at run-time?
I can create a script which will make use of the PAR::Repository, but as soon as I create a pp'd binary (EXE or .par), the repository is no longer used. Here's what I've got as a demo: demo $ find . -type f ./blib/Demo.pm ./demo.pl ./Demo.pm demo $ cat demo.pl use PAR { repository => 'file:///tmp/demo/repo', fallback => 0, # check repo first }; use Demo; print "$Demo::ORIGIN\n"; demo $ cat Demo.pm package Demo; our $ORIGIN = 'builtin'; 1; demo $ cat blib/Demo.pm package Demo; our $ORIGIN = 'repo'; 1; demo $ perl -MPAR::Dist -e 'blib_to_par(name=>"Demo",version=>"0.1")' Successfully created binary distribution 'Demo-0.1-darwin-2level-5.16.0.par'. Its contents are accessible in compliant browsers as: jar:file:///private/tmp/demo/Demo-0.1-darwin-2level-5.16.0.par!/MANIFEST demo $ parrepo create Creating new repository at 'repo'. demo $ parrepo inject -f Demo-0.1-darwin-2level-5.16.0.par Injecting file 'Demo-0.1-darwin-2level-5.16.0.par' into repository. demo $ pp -M PAR::Repository::Client -M DBM::Deep::Engine::File -o demo.exe demo.pl demo $ pp -M PAR::Repository::Client -M DBM::Deep::Engine::File -p -o demo.par demo.pl demo $ perl demo.pl repo demo $ parl demo.par builtin demo $ ./demo.exe builtin
