Greetings, Martin martin.zin...@deutsche-boerse.com 22.04.2010 00:29 To vmsperl@perl.org cc Subject Problem with VMS Carriage return carriage control files in 5.10 and 5.12 Hello Colleagues, I am currently trying to drag our development team kicking and screaming into the century of the fruitbat, but what looks like a bug in 5.10.1 and 5.12.0 is a stumbling block. Problem description: If you open a text file with Carriage return carriage control for output (based off an existing file) and populate the new file with longer records, at some point gratuitous line breaks are added to the file. This does not happen with either Perl 5.8.0 on Alpha, nor Perl 5.8.5 on Itanium (in that case the hp build). It does happen with both 5.10.1 and 5.12.0 on Itanium. The attached Zip file contains a simple DCL to reproduce the problem (essentially it creates a test file and then in an embedded Perl script does a printf to file). The reproducer is an extremely simplified version of the actual code. It also contains the output from 5.8.x and 5.12 (5.10.1 looks the same). Any ideas why this happens and how to fix it?
