| Subject: | File::Fetch 0.07 cannot do an FTP fetch on Win32 |
Hello Jos,
on Win32, File::Fetch 0.07 does not properly fetch files via FTP,
because File::Spec is used to construct a FTP URL - but FTP paths don't
follow the Win32 conventions. You should either be really explicit and
reconstruct the FTP url via
sub _netftp_fetch {
...
#line 360
### create the remote path ###
my $remote = join "/", $self->path, $self->file
or, at least, use File::Spec::UNIX :
#line 360
### create the remote path ###
my $remote = File::Spec::Unix->catfile( $self->path, $self->file);
If you apply the second fix, File::Fetch 0.07 passes all tests on Win32,
with File::Spec 0.87.
A second possible candidate of a comparable same error might be around
line 627 in the sub _file_fetch, but I'm too lazy to find/fix it at the
moment.
