Bug #65803 for REST-Client: REST::Client cannot be installed on Windows

Wed Feb 16 22:31:09 2011 adamk [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

REST::Client cannot be installed on Windows

REST::Client uses HTTP::Server::Simple for testing. This module is known to behave erractically and hang forever on Windows. As a result, the REST::Client tests hang forever and prevent installation on Windows. Please add the HTTP::Server::Simple depedency only on unix, and skip the relevant tests on Windows.

Windows? What is "Windows?" :) I'll see if I get this fixed up soon. On Wed Feb 16 22:31:09 2011, ADAMK wrote: Show quoted text

A platform that a lot of people like to write ad-hoc desktop or utility software on that talks to REST services :) On 17 February 2011 16:48, Miles Crawford via RT <bug-REST-Client@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text

HTTP::Server::Simple was always optional, but I do see that if you already had it installed on windows, i would make use of it. I will now only run the tests if you are not on windows and have server::simple installed. REST-Client-217 is working its way through PAUSE right now, could you let me know if it takes care of your issue? Thanks! -m On Thu Feb 17 23:47:25 2011, adam@ali.as wrote: Show quoted text

Not so much "basic.t magic" as "basic.t 39 is not actually equal to 40" Fixed in rest client 240 thanks for catching that.
