| Subject: | Hexadecimal number > 0xffffffff non-portable |
I have received this error using RRD::Simple on OS X on both Snow Leopard and Lion with a
custom built perl.
Hexadecimal number > 0xffffffff non-portable at /usr/local/wu/root/perl-
5.14.1/lib/site_perl/5.14.1/RRD/Simple.pm line 1125.2011
I was able to resolve the issue using the attached patch which uses Math::BigInt.
Please let me know if you need any additional information.
