Bug #2500 for DateTime: DateTime.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _finite

Show quoted text
Yeah, open DateTime.xs, and add the line #define finite _finite and then compile the thing, cause it won't compile otherwise. A simple `#define finite' would also suffice. This error is a little odd cause _finite does show up in MSVCRT.LIB and ccflags is (-MD means MSVCRT.LIB): -nologo -O1 -MD -DNDEBUG -DWIN32 -D_CONSOLE -DNO_STRICT - DHAVE_DES_FCRYPT -DPERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT -DPERL_IMPLICIT_SYS - DPERL_MSVCRT_READFIX Show quoted text
No idea. I just run the tests, I didn't write'em ;) perl -Mblib t\20infinite.t Using ./blib 1..36 ok 1 - positive infinity should be infinite ok 2 - negative infinity should be infinite ok 3 - positive infinity should not be finite ok 4 - negative infinity should not be finite ok 5 - negative infinity is really negative ok 6 - positive infinity is really positive ok 7 - positive infinity is bigger than negative infinity ok 8 - infinity - normal = infinity ok 9 - normal + infinite duration = infinity ok 10 - normal - infinity = neg infinity ok 11 - normal + neg infinite duration = neg infinity not ok 12 - infinity - infinity = nan (days) # Failed test (t\20infinite.t at line 55) # got: '1.#QNAN' # expected: '-1.#IND' not ok 13 - infinity - infinity = nan (seconds) # Failed test (t\20infinite.t at line 55) # got: '1.#QNAN' # expected: '-1.#IND' not ok 14 - infinity - infinity = nan (nanoseconds) # Failed test (t\20infinite.t at line 55) # got: '0' # expected: '-1.#IND' ok 15 - infinity + normal duration = infinity ok 16 - infinity - normal duration = infinity ok 17 - infinity (datetime) == infinity (number) ok 18 - neg infinity (datetime) == neg infinity (number) ok 19 - pos year is 1.\#INF ok 20 - neg year is 1.\#INF ok 21 - pos month is 1.\#INF ok 22 - neg month is 1.\#INF ok 23 - pos day is 1.\#INF ok 24 - neg day is 1.\#INF ok 25 - pos hour is 1.\#INF ok 26 - neg hour is 1.\#INF ok 27 - pos minute is 1.\#INF ok 28 - neg minute is 1.\#INF ok 29 - pos second is 1.\#INF ok 30 - neg second is 1.\#INF ok 31 - pos microsecond is 1.\#INF ok 32 - neg microsecond is 1.\#INF ok 33 - pos millisecond is 1.\#INF ok 34 - neg millisecond is 1.\#INF ok 35 - pos nanosecond is 1.\#INF ok 36 - neg nanosecond is 1.\#INF # Looks like you failed 3 tests of 36.

Unfortunately, both of those break tests on my box, so it probably needs some sort of preprocessor protection. I hate C code. BTW, who are you? I have no way of emailing you directly. Show quoted text
Yeah, but I just run them on Linux, where they work ;) I don't have a Windows compiler so unless someone who knows more about Windows compilation than me contributes, this probably will stay unfixed. -dave /*======================= House Absolute Consulting www.houseabsolute.com =======================*/
