Subject: 3.05 breaks XS modules on Cygwin/perl-5.10
Cross posted from https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=71897. XS modules fail to compile on Cygwin with error (sample): ~~~~~~ lib/Archive/Extract/Libarchive.c:207:1: error: external linkage required for symbol ‘XS_Archive__Extract__Libarchive__extract’ because of ‘dllexport’ attribute lib/Archive/Extract/Libarchive.c:208:1: error: external linkage required for symbol ‘XS_Archive__Extract__Libarchive__extract’ because of ‘dllexport’ attribute ~~~~~~ See attached file for more info on environment and build log. Using 3.04 works fine. Thanks, -Mithun

Is this still a problem? 3.06 should have fixed the Cygwin problem. 3.09 is current. Cheers, Steffen

Just tried with 3.11 and seems to be fixed on cygwin. All previous distributions that failed to install now install fine. Thanks, Mithun On Mon, Jan 2, 2012 at 1:42 AM, Steffen Mueller via RT <bug-ExtUtils-ParseXS@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text
