Yeah, that is a bad idea. from http://search.cpan.org/~nwclark/perl-5.8.8/utils/perlcc.PL: The code generated in this way is not guaranteed to work. The whole codegen suite (perlcc included) should be considered very experimental. Use for production purposes is strongly discouraged. In general, there are no real benefits to "compiling" Perl code. Unless you need to be able to distribute one file to a client who does not have Perl installed you are better off just making the Perl script executable and calling it a day. If you do need to create a single file you can hand off to a customer consider using PAR* (creates a bundle similar to Java's JAR files) or PAR::Packer** (bundles the PAR file up with a copy of the interpreter to create a completely standalone executable). * http://search.cpan.org/dist/PAR/lib/PAR.pm ** http://search.cpan.org/dist/PAR-Packer/lib/PAR/Packer.pm -- Chas.
