Perl setting

[gianf...@gmail.com]

Hi all,
I need to set right my perl environment since i got often libs errors:
@INC ..lib not found...etc especially using libtool, so i can't compile easily a dll.
My buildenv is on U:\ and i've perl5 from Paul Smedley in U:\PERL5, which statements, PERLLIB, PERL5LIB, "/" "\" both?
Thanks!

[Dave Yeo]

I have
set PATH=g:\perl5\bin;%PATH%
set BEGINLIBPATH=g:\perl5\lib;%BEGINLIBPATH%
set PERLDIR=g:\perl5
set PERL_LIBPATH=g:/perl5/lib;g:/git/
set PERLLIB_PREFIX=u:/perl5/lib;g:/perl5/lib
set PERL_SH_DIR=/bin/sh.exe

Ok, setting your Dave, some steps forward but invoking autoreconf for openjpeg this is the output:
Can't locate Autom4te/ChannelDefs.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/share/autoconf /perl5/lib/site_perl/5.14.2/os2 /perl5/lib/site_perl/5.14.2 /perl
5/lib/5.14.2/os2 /perl5/lib/5.14.2 /perl5/lib/site_perl .) at u:\usr\bin/autoreconf line 39.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at u:\usr\bin/autoreconf line 39.
# exit

I read this http://mantis.smedley.id.au/view.php?id=515 issue already found seem, any other suggest?

Seems vaguely familiar but I don't use Pauls build environment and
autoreconf works here though autoconf is installed in /usr/local/share.
What happens if you do sh autoconf?

That should be /bin
Dave

[gianf...@gmail.com]

[C:\downloads\ports\openjpeg\openjpeg-1.5.1]sh autoconf
u:\usr\bin/autoconf: /usr/bin/autom4te: not found

but autom4te is there and look at existing files and paths:

BEGIN
{
my $pkgdatadir = $ENV{'autom4te_perllibdir'} || '/usr/share/autoconf';
unshift @INC, $pkgdatadir;

$ENV{'SHELL'} = '/bin/sh' if ($^O eq 'dos');
}

use Autom4te::C4che;
use Autom4te::ChannelDefs;
use Autom4te::Channels;
use Autom4te::FileUtils;
use Autom4te::General;
use Autom4te::XFile;
use File::Basename;
use strict;

Those packages are the last from Ko Myung-Hun (now they are all in /usr/bin) and...uhmm

set PERL_SH_DIR=\bin\sh.exe
"\" instead of "/"

changed but the output is the same

There should be something else wrong Dave, this is my testperl.cmd out:

As I said, it should be set to /bin (or wherever you have sh.exe). I use
[pdk]sh.exe as a shell.
After correcting my BEGINLIBPATH to point to g:\perl5\bin instead of lib
perltest.cmd complains about a bunch of
The following entries in 'g:/perl5/lib/5.16.3/os2/Config.pm'
contain path settings which look suspicious:
aphostname => 'u:/bin/hostname'
archlib => 'u:/perl5/lib/5.16.3/os2'
...
usrinc => 'U:/USR/include'
Press <ENTER>: ====================================
Apparently you edited 'g:/perl5/lib/5.16.3/Net/Config.pm',
so I expect you know what you did. OK...

I should probably edit these to point to G: instead of U: or better
build it myself.

I installed Pauls newest recently and haven't used it much but
autoreconf -i -f works as expected.
Previously I used an EMX build of perl 5.8 that I built

Okay, so for now I keep it so, when I have time I will also try to build perl.
Thanks Dave
