Subject: Can't create driver auto - Can't locate object method "new"
Running : #!/usr/bin/perl my $port = Device::ParallelPort->new('auto:0'); $port->set_bit(3,1); print $port->get_bit(3) . "\n"; print ord($port->get_byte(0)) . "\n"; Results in: Can't locate object method "new" via package "Device::ParallelPort" at ./paraporttest line 3. Seemed to install o.k. and make test worked. Thanks Scott - (been waiting for this sort of Perl module for a while) Greg Smith
[guest - Sat Jul 20 00:41:57 2002]: Doooh. Just saw this. Had not been paying attention to the RT Queues :-) Great feature of CPAN, but still new to me... Hmmm... the auto module has not been tested much I will have a rewview of it asap. I am about to release a new release which includes - Much better testing - Perl only parport for linux version (no XS) - Better dependencies - More documentation Thanks for the feedback BTW. down the track I am going to do a Windows version, started but I am slow on windows (don't even own a box to test on :-) Scott Show quoted text

Scott: Would appreciate it if you could fix this. I really could use this module urgently. Thanks [SCOTT - Thu Oct 17 22:38:17 2002]: Show quoted text
