| Subject: | make test fails on Win32 |
The test.pl fails on Win32 for the tests that employ a fork() call due to (two) segfaults. That's not all too surprising, as the fork() emulation most likely doesn't copy the static stuff properly. The "fix" would be to not do that then, that is, to skip these tests under Win32.
I have done some non-forking client/server testing in HTTP::LocalServer, and if you're interested, I can work up some test code from that.
Some code for skipping the offending test under Windows would be:
SKIP: {
if ($^O =~ /MSWin32/i) {
print "OK\n";
last SKIP;
};
unless ($pid = fork) {
print "\tSpawning a TCP test server on port 1211, pid=$$...\n" if $trace;
$redir = $trace<3 ? '>>tcpecho.log 2>&1' : '';
exec("@perl examples/tcpecho.pl 1211 $redir");
}
sleep 1; # if server is slow
$res = `@perl examples/tcpcat.pl 127.0.0.1 1211 ssleay-tcp-test`;
print $res if $trace>1;
print &test('5tcp', ($res =~ /SSLEAY-TCP-TEST/));
};
Below is the version of Perl I'm using. I linked the libraries statically against the latest OpenSSL files (0.9.7e), because I'm working on an all-inclusive distribution that includes the Perl and the OpenSSL libraries. I also experienced the same problems with Perl 5.8.4 and the precompiled OpenSSL DLL.
Have fun,
