Hi all, I just discovered Poe and I was really impressed by it. So I tried the example that use Poe::Component::child published on http://poe.perl.org/?POE_Cookbook/Child_Component after having manually installed on my windows XP with perl 5.8.3.activestate the POE::Component::Child module. During the nmake -f makefile install I received numerous error , about fork+exec not supported on win32. THen I forced the install an launch the script but.....
C:\sviluppo4\test>perl -c test.pl MSWin32 does not fully support fork+exec BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/site/lib/POE/Wheel/Run.pm line 64. Compilation failed in require at (eval 85) line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 85) line 1. could not import qw(Wheel::Run) at C:/Perl/site/lib/POE/Component/Child.pm line 29 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/site/lib/POE/Component/Child.pm line 29. Compilation failed in require at test.pl line 4. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at test.pl line 4. C:\sviluppo4\test> Have you some ideas on this error. Is, unfortunatelly, POE::Component::child unsupported on win32? Thank a lot for your good work, anyway Alex
