Subject: Test file with invalid \ on Windows
On Windows, when I create a module, MS creates a test file 00-load.t with a diag() that contains the file name of perl.exe. That file name contains unescaped \ which triggers warnings. Example: diag( "Testing Win32::Word::FromHTML $Win32::Word::FromHTML::VERSION, Perl 5.008003, C:\appl\dev\mod_perl\Perl\bin\perl.exe" ); Suggestion: Either quotemeta the string or s|\\|/|g

The test shouldn't read like that should it? My 1.38 gives this: diag( "Testing My::Junk $My::Junk::VERSION, Perl 5.008003, $^X"); Right? (note the variable $^X is not expanded) Is this 1.38? (no, you've got 1.36 there) Show quoted text

No. You don't want it expanded. You want the variable (presumambly this is a message about the machine on which the test is running, not the one on which it was created.) --Eric
