Subject: Problem in HTMLBatch.pm with calls to File::Spec->catfile using $1
Date: Mon, 31 Mar 2008 14:31:59 -0400
To: bug-Pod-Simple [...] rt.cpan.org
From: "Andrew Hamlin" <aahamlin [...] gmail.com>
Win32 perl 5.8.8 has problem with File::Spec::catfile method, I found same problem this morning with the Template::Toolkit distro Template::Provider.pm file. For some reason the use of $1 in the catfile command causes the Win32 root dir (in my case D:) to be appended to the end of the $outdir argument, resulting in the filename d:\my\temp\path\d: rather than d:\my\temp\path The real problem may be in the File::Spec module, I will probably file a bug there too. HTMLBatch.pm Line 611-612: my $onefix = $1; $outfile = $self->filespecsys->catfile( $outdir, $onefix ); Line 778-779: my $onefix = $1; $outfile = $self->filespecsys->catfile( $outdir, $onefix );
this will be fixed in 3.06.
