Re: [RDBO] Debian Rose

2007-03-19 Thread Jonathan Vanasco

Try installing Scalar::Util by hand, or from a CPAN shell -- that  
module and a few others don't seem to like being installed as  
dependencies by many modules.

few perl modules make it to debian packages, fewer are timely.   
debian was notorious for a long time from having extremely out of  
date packages.  you could try using the ubuntu ports system -- its  
far better maintained than debian.  i've heard that regular debian  
machines can use them - I don't know the validity of that.  there  
could also be a verison of rose in unstable.

other than that, i'd suggest installing from source or cpan.  there  
are only 2 real differences between a real install ( cpan / source )  
and a .deb : where the files go, and if the files are hooked into an  
upgrade system (other than cpan's own )

 Other than cpan Rose::DB and cpan Rose::DB::Object as root

It's certainly not deliberate.  I don't use Debian, but if anyone
wants to Debianize RDBO, I'll answer any questions I can...

Thanks for this advice. It turns out there was a similar question on the 
Catalyst list. You're absolutely right: the Scalar::Util from CPAN got 
installed as a dependency. By removing it, I reverted to the Debianized 
version; which version does have the XS support.

FWIW, there can be other differences between a Debianized version and 
CPAN. I'm not sure of the intricacies, but LIB::SAX (sic) has some sort 
of Debian-specific hook(s) in it.  The Debian Catalyst package was a 
good bootstrap, and I was able to get Catalyst going from there (using 
CPAN to fill in the holes).

Since I make a living using Debian, I don't really want to risk a major 
FUBAR by trying to combine Debian  Ubuntu.

I've installed Rose::DB and ROSE::DB::Object from CPAN, and I'll track 
it that way.

Thank-you for your support,
jec

Well, since I'm probably the first person to ask... I'll look into 
setting up a process for creating .deb files. Some scripts that run on 
Debian would be a good start. Since I'm not registered as a Debian 
developer, they wouldn't be official. But, you could host the .deb files 
on a server near you.

BTW, kudos for the make_modules() it did good job on a MySQL schema. I 
couldn't get make_classes() to work, though. From the tutorial

 @classes = $loader-make_classes;
   foreach my $class (@classes)
   {
 if($class-isa('Rose::DB::Object'))
 {
   print $class-meta-perl_class_definition(braces = 'bsd',
 indent = 2), \n;
 }
 else # Rose::DB::Object::Manager subclasses
 {
   print $class-perl_class_definition, \n;
 }
   }

The statement
 $class-isa('Rose::DB::Object'))
failed cannot call isa on unblessed reference This isn't a cry for 
help, as the workaround was to use make_modules()

Cheers,
jec

That's pretty odd since make_modules() calls make_classes()

print out what $class is in the case where you get that error?

Tried that. All I got was an array reference. I did add the 
filter_tables callback to Rose::DB::Object::Loader. I had it print out 
the tables, so I knew it that was working. I have a feeling it relates 
to the other parts of the source file. I wouldn't worry about it for 
now. I nuked the original source  replaced it w/ the call to 
make_modules(). Otherwise, I'd post it and open it up for discussion.

Please save your time for when I attempt to Debianize Rose.

Hi,

I'd like to evaluate Rose::DB::Object for use w/ Catalyst. However, I 
cannot seem to get it successfully installed on Debian Etch. I notice 
that someone else reported a successful install. However, it seems to

Other than cpan Rose::DB and cpan Rose::DB::Object as root
