Crypt::IDEA problems

Hi, I'm having problems installing Crypt::IDEA on my mac (10.4). sudo perl Makefile.pl works fine. However, when I run make or make test, I get the following error message: gcc -c -fno-common -DPERL_DARWIN -no-cpp-precomp - DUSE_SITECUSTOMIZE -DNO_HASH_SEED -DBUILT_BY_ACTIVESTATE

Re: Crypt::IDEA problems

John Mercer said: Is the problem with endian.h? What is endian.h? I googled it, and found that it was part of GLT, but I don't see how that could be related to an encryption mod. Well, I can answer this part of the question... endian.h looks to be a fairly general file, that GLT just happens

Re: Crypt::IDEA problems

Looks to me that _idea.c is assuming that all system have /usr/ include/endian.h, which is false (it's probably a Linux assumption). You can probably get this to work by changing line 8 to: #include machine/endian.h for Mac OS X anyways. Edward Moy Apple On Jun 15, 2005, at 8:01 AM, John

Good call, Ed. That fixed the problem. Smooth install. Thanks, jm On Jun 15, 2005, at 12:21 PM, Edward Moy wrote: Looks to me that _idea.c is assuming that all system have /usr/ include/endian.h, which is false (it's probably a Linux assumption). You can probably get this to work by

Parsing UTF8 files with wide characters

I thought I'd understood how to use unicode support in perl, but evidently not. In the script below, I'm stumped as to: 1) why the regex won't match ''. 2) why the substitution is carried out, but the result isn't in UTF8, nor is it UTF8 re-encoded in UTF8 (uncomment #require Encode;

Re: Parsing UTF8 files with wide characters

Try use utf8 - it lets Perl know that your script contains utf8 chars. More info: http://perlpod.com/5.9.1/lib/utf8.html Andrew On Jun 15, 2005, at 2:48 PM, Robin wrote: I thought I'd understood how to use unicode support in perl, but evidently not. In the script below, I'm stumped as

Re: Parsing UTF8 files with wide characters

thanks Andrew and Sherm I went back to look at perluniintro because I was sure I could remember reading that the use utf8 pragma was no longer needed, right under where it says this it continues Only one case remains where an explicit use utf8 is needed: if your Perl script itself is encoded

Flat file being Scrambled

Hi, Here's a quick question. This doesn't have anything to do with perl on my mac, but just a perl question. I have a a small script that simply increases a number by 1, when it is run, then writes the changes back to the file. I am using it to check how many people come to the site by way

Re: Flat file being Scrambled

Hey Mark, I doubt any mortal brain could follow all the various permutations of clients hitting your files and trying to lock them while some other client is doing the same. But here's one way your data could get hosed: one client reads the file in between the time another client opened it
