Install problem for crypt-openssl-rsa-0.28 under OS/2

Load failure for _boot_Crypt__OpenSSL__RSA during build under Perl 5.10.0 on eComStation 2.0 GA (rebranded OS/2 4.52). RSA.def has EXPORTS boot_Crypt__OpenSSL__RSA should be EXPORTS _boot_Crypt__OpenSSL__RSA

I might be able to manipulate it based on $^O. What do you get from: perl -E 'say $^O'

I should have bothered to look at the before commenting. So the issue looks like DynaLoader misbehaving. Can you try upgrading that to see the effect? What version are you running? perl -MDynaLoader -E 'say $DynaLoader::VERSION'

For starters, It's very bad if $^O is truly blank as you say. This might be the source of your problem. If this is not the case, then the problem is with ExtUtils::MakeMaker since it's what defines those exports. See the subroutine _write_os2 in https://metacpan.org/source/ExtUtils::Mksymlists It's possible the problem can be fixed simply by updating from an old EU::MM. What do you get from: perl -MExtUtils::MakeMaker -e 'print $ExtUtils::MakeMaker::VERSION . "\n$^O\n"'

What I said is that the command gives blank output, not that $^O itself is blank. I've used $^O in my code and it has the expected value ('os2'), so the problem probably is an issue with perl -E under OS/2. I've seen it in other contexts. Show quoted text

>See the subroutine _write_os2 in >https://metacpan.org/source/ExtUtils::Mksymlists

It seems to just write the FUNCLIST element of the hash passed to it; it would be up to the caller to prepend a _ in line 36 and 43, as far as I can see. OTOH, I don't really understand how MakeMaker is supposed to work. Show quoted text

Nor I, but I was speaking with someone today about your ticket and he helped me to point you to this information. His comment was that because you were using gcc on OS2, which was not expected, EU:MM should detect that and push in the underscore into the export list. You are running the latest EU::MM, which means it needs a patch to make it work like you want Show quoted text

Perl age is not really the issue here as best I can tell. Nor is Crypto. It's my guess that one of the following applies: 1. You cannot build ANY XS based module: Try DBD::SQLite or YAML::Syck? 2. You cannot build any XS module which links to an external library: Try XML::LibXML or XML::Parser or XML::LibXSLT

Well, it's certainly possible to test $Config{cc}; I just don't know whether every export of boot_foo has to be _boot_foo or whether it has to be more selective. would changing the code in f:\perl5\lib\5.14.2\ExtUtils\Mksymlists.pm to the following cause collateral damage? if (defined $spec{DL_FUNCS}) { my $bootpfx = $^O eq 'os2' && $Config{cc} eq 'gcc' ? '_' : ''; foreach my $package (keys %{$spec{DL_FUNCS}}) { my($packprefix,$bootseen); ($packprefix = $package) =~ s/\W/_/g; foreach my $sym (@{$spec{DL_FUNCS}->{$package}}) { if ($sym =~ /^boot_/) { push(@{$spec{FUNCLIST}},$bootpfx$sym); $bootseen++; } else { push(@{$spec{FUNCLIST}},"XS_${packprefix}_$sym"); } } push(@{$spec{FUNCLIST}},"${bootpfx}boot_$packprefix") unless $bootseen; } } -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

The attached patch seems to fix it for the case I encountered. Do you want me to download and test any of DBD::SQLite, YAML::Syck, XML::LibXML, XML::Parser or XML::LibXSLT? Do I need to create a separate RT incident for ExtUtils::Mksymlists? A couple of notes on the patch. 1. It will not work on anything older that Perl 5.10.0 unless the version module is installed. 2. I'm assuming that the underscore is only needed for the exports of the boot_foo symbols; if it is needed for all exported symbols then the change would have to go into _write_os2 -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

Symor, Yes, the bug is nothing to do with Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA per se, so should be opened under ExtUtils::MakeMaker. That package is what's responsible for building XS for this module. As for testing the other modules, this would be useful information when you open the ticket with EU::MM to let them know if the problem is across all XS or XS that does linking. I'm closing this ticket for now. Feel free to re-open this ticket if they tell you the problem is over here. Thanks, Todd

You may want to cross-referrence it and 75181 to 75278. The only open issue in 75181 is the missing -Lz; the patch should fix the others. 75182 is completely resolved by the patch.
