Thu Oct 15 05:44:12 2009 kjell [...] kvinge.biz - Ticket created

Hi. I want to use this module for a crossplatfor perlscript Im working on. Currently, it looks like it wont install via CPAN on strawberryperl on windows. This is output from the tests when running install from cpan: C:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib\lib', 'blib\arch')" t/*.t t/00-load.t ......... 1/1 # Testing UUID::Tiny 1.02, Perl 5.010000, C:\STRAWB~1\ perl\bin\perl.exe t/00-load.t ......... ok t/01-UUID-std.t ..... ok t/02-UUID-legacy.t .. ok t/03-UUID-fork.t .... - gjenkjennes ikke som en intern eller ekstern kommando, // This is norwegian. it says: cant regognize internal or //external command Use of uninitialized value $child_data in chomp at t/03-UUID-fork.t line 20. Use of uninitialized value $uuid in length at C:\strawberry\cpan\build\UUID-Tiny -1.02-LZMVGh\blib\lib/UUID/Tiny.pm line 551. ... I will try reproduce the error running the test manually. Best regards Kjell Kvinge

Hello, I can confirm that test number three fails on Windows. This has to do with the way that the test is written: open '|-' is not supported on Windows. The best approach is to skip that test on Windows: if ($^O eq 'MSWin32') { skip_all("Pipe-open not supported"); }; Thanks, -max

Thanks for your support. I had to use slightly different code to make it work, but you pointed me in the right direction. -- caugustin
