Subject: lots of warnings
I upgraded ParseXS to 2.2002 a while back, as part of periodic upgrading in response to CPAN's 'r' command. I use perl 5.8.9 (waiting for 5.10.1). Recently I've been working on my IPC::MMA module, and 'make' commands on it would result in lots of warnings of form: MMA.c: In function `boot_IPC__MMA': MMA.c:3033: warning: passing arg 3 of `Perl_newXS' discards qualifiers from pointer target type See http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=787482 for a running story. I solved this problem by changing line 982 of /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/ExtUtils/ParseXS.pm from: # const char* file = __FILE__; TO # char* file = __FILE__; Maybe my system is missing some other ingredient that makes the 'const' form work properly. Best Regards, Craig MacKenna
Thank you for the report. This is a duplicate of RT#48104 and should have been resolved in ExtUtils::ParseXS 2.20_03. Please give that a try and let me know if it works for you.

2.20_03 is an alpha release. It's not indexed as current by CPAN. You have to install it explicitly: Show quoted text
cpan> install DAGOLDEN/ExtUtils-ParseXS-2.20_03.tar.gz
Thanks, David
