Bug #133230 for System-Command: test 30-exit.t fails on Windows

I have attached the build log (build.log) for System-Command-1.121 that shows the 30-exit.t test fails saying: t/30-exit.t .............. Can't find string terminator "'" anywhere before EOF at -e line 1. t/30-exit.t .............. 1/? # Failed test 'exit status not clobbered' # at t/30-exit.t line 11. # got: '255' # expected: '3' # Looks like you failed 1 test of 1. t/30-exit.t .............. Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100) Failed 1/1 subtests The error is with this call: perl -Ilib -MSystem::Command -e ' my \$out = System::Command->new(qw($^X -e1))->stdout; exit 3; '; I changed to use double quotes (") for Windows, instead of single quotes ('), and the test passes (t/30-exit.t .............. ok). I have attached the updated test, as well. (I tested on Windows 10 & Server 2016 using Strawberry Perl 5.20.2 & 5.30.3) Lisa ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail.
