I wish we could have a y2k hype scare every year. I made a bundle in 99'
"testing" for y2k compatibility. Anyone else?

I thought the next hype to wait for was Jan 19th 2038 03:14:07
Isn't that the max for 32 bit machines and their date representation?

Win32::API is 0.41.
Hmm. Will try on a couple different OS versions and see what happens.

That's not true. If you slap a million lines together, then you
have a better chance, but a good programmer in a proper environment
doesn't write buggy code (or at least removes the bugs before going
into production). You'd never get a
Greetings perl-win32-users,
I am hoping to use the parallelport drv module by Scott Penrose which
is available from CPAN. I want to use it on windows and it seems to
require a separate win32 module. I can not find this on CPAN or
anywhere else. I wrote to the author but have received no reply. Doe

I'd be willing to bet this particular feature won't bite you again.
This is a good point to note how useful test first development is.
http://perlunit.sourceforge.net
If you start with the test/validation before even writing the code,
you'll seldom have an issue with this in production.

The point is to debug your code properly. You can't expect buggy code
to work properly anywhere. This is just one spot where a bug in your
code could cause yo
