Greetings,
I am trying to build mod_perl 1.99_13 on Win 2000 (VC
6.0).
In mod_perl-1.99_13\lib\ModPerl\BuildOptions.pm around
lines 110 - 111
if (Apache::Build::WIN32()) {
# MP_AP_PREFIX may not contain spaces
require Win32;
$val = Win32::GetShortPathName($val);
}
Why do we need to require Win32.pm ?
Win32::GetShortPathName is in Perl Core.
I also have another doubt.
I want to avoid using Win32.pm. I have built perl
5.8.3 native on win32. I notice that mod_perl uses
Win32::Process in
Apache-Test\lib\Apache\TestServer.pm. If I ignore this
usage or workaround it - can I safetly avoid using
Win32::* (libwin32) w.r.t to mod_perl ?
regards
srp
