Date: Wed, 23 May 2001 11:02:34 -0700 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2911.0) Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.50.4133.2400 I've looked through the archives and seen a number of messages regarding this problem that allude to a potentially forthcoming solution and to other messages in the archive, but nothing conclusive. What's interesting below is the fact that we were both running 1.1.8 cygwin with perl5.6.1, and it seemed to work on my system until I reinstalled the perl distribution using the cygwin setup program... ============================================================= I had build the DBI-1.15 distribution from CPAN on my system running 1.1.8 with perl 5.6.1. when I turned the source over to one of the other engineers here, he tried to build it and had syntax errors in generated source files. When I looked through the source files, I found "\r\r\n" combinations at the ends of some of the lines in the files. If I remove the '\r' characters from the files, it builds fine. I went back to my own system and used the cygwin setup program to remove the perl installation from my system, then reinstalled it. Now I'm having the same problem. The software generates a C source file for an xs file using the tool xsubpp. I can't remember what I might have changed in my own distribution that would have affected this. can anyone shed any light on this? thanks. ...myoung -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
