Subject: make test fails on Cygwin: Win32.pm missing and API_test.dll cannot be loaded
Win32::API should list 'Win32' in the 'requires' section of META.yml. Since version 0.27 of libwin32, the 'Win32' module is not included in libwin32 anymore, see http://search.cpan.org/src/JDB/libwin32-0.27/Changes Having done 'cpan Win32' to install that missing dependency, the tests of Win32::API now fail when they try to load 'API_test.dll'. The loading of that dll is to be achieved by a perl call to Win32::LoadLibrary(), which is just an XS wrapper for LoadLibraryA() in kernel32.dll. I don't know why it fails, unfortunately.

Sorry to update myself so soon, showing that I reported the bug too soon... but I'm happy to have it solved. API_test.dll has to have the executable bit turned on, otherwise it won't load.

Solved, yes, closed only when you released a fixed 0.48 :) Best regards, Michael

Sorry Michael, but how am I supposed to change the +x bit if I'm on a Windows machine? I tried the chmod.exe utility, but does not seem to do what you want... Are you on an NTFS or FAT volume?

Hello Cosimo, maybe you cannot reproduce the issue, because you use ActiveState Perl (or some other Win32 Perl, which I don't know) and not Cygwin. The chmod I mean is from Cygwin. Cygwin can support permissions properly only on NTFS volumes and with the (default) Cygwin setting "ntsec", otherwise it just makes up permissions that work most of the time. But I think the file system type is not the cause of the issue. It is just that Cygwin needs its own quirks. Best regards, Michael Show quoted text

Please add this to your Makefile.PL: sub MY::depend { return "" unless $^O eq 'cygwin'; return "\ntest_dynamic :: \n\t\$(CHMOD) \$(PERM_RWX) API_test.dll"; } This will always chmod +x the dll on make test on cygwin only. -- Reini Urban

Thank you for this fix. You are really brilliant, as always. :-) I have already added this to Makefile.PL and will release an updated version soon.

Should be fixed in 0.50, soon on CPAN. Please let me know if it works for you.

It works now, but only when Win32.pm is available. It is still not listed as dependency, but it better would, because Win32.pm does not come with Cygwin. Show quoted text
