Carl I would be interested to try out your procedure. Andrew -----Original Message----- From: Carl Friedberg [mailto:friedb...@exs.esb.com] Sent: 23 March 2011 18:46 To: 'Craig A. Berry'; Black, Andrew (Global Products Unit) Cc: 'vmsperl@perl.org' Subject: RE: Building VMS Perl
Craig & Andrew, I have a procedure I use to build the latest release, which I run from batch. It needs some work. Andrew, if you wish, I'll forward it to you with some comments. I have these issues which I will research and report back to the group (all with VMS 8.3 on alpha): (1) my batch script generates 2 batch logs with the same name. One from configure; the other from the main build and test script. Craig made some changes to configure.com which should have fixed this; I will dig in and report back. (2) the tests hang on (all flavors of 5-12) ext/Devel-SelfStubber/t/Devel-SelfStubber I will try again with that test removed from manifest. (is that the recommended way to skip a test?) (3) I am still building with -Uuseperlio because of previous issues (since 5-10) with extraneous line endings inserted when processing long lines ( Martin Z. and Craig have worked that; apparently there's an extra line ending every 4048 characters ).
