Hi,
Using the attached patch to the blead source (as of a few hours ago), I can
build perl with the following OS/compiler/make combos.
On 32-bit XP:
MSVC++ 7.0 / dmake (uses win32/makefile.mk)
MSVC++ 7.0 / nmake (uses win32/Makefile)
Borland C++ 5.5.1 / dmake
mingw.org's gcc-4.3.0 / dmake
mingw.org's gcc-3.4.5 / dmake
mingw-w64.sf's 32-bit gcc-4.4.3 / dmake
(There's a bug with that last compiler on XP.
The perl it builds on XP hangs on XP, but runs ok if copied across to Vista.
I think this is unrelated to the patches - probably even unrelated to perl.
Without these patches perl will not even build using that last compiler.)
On 64-bit Vista:
32-bit MSVC++ 7.0 / nmake (uses win32/Makefile)
32-bit MSVC++ 7.0 / dmake (uses win32/makfile.mk)
32-bit Borland C++ 5.5.1 / dmake
mingw.org's 32-bit gcc-4.4.0 / dmake
mingw.org's 32-bit gcc-3.4.5 / dmake
mingw-w64.sf's 32-bit gcc-4.4.3 / dmake
mingw-w64.sf's 64-bit gcc-4.4.3 / dmake
mingw-w64.sf's 64-bit x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc-4.4.3 / dmake
64-bit MicrosoftPlatform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 / dmake (uses
win32/makefile.mk)
64-bit MicrosoftPlatform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 / nmake (uses
win32/Makefile)
Not all of those builds pass all tests - but where the removal of the
patches still permits perl to build, the same tests still fail. That is,
*nothing* is lost by including these patches - but there are significant
gains.
Each of the above builds was done according to the normal win32
configuration parameters - ie multi-threaded, non debug. No unusual config
settings were applied. (I did build one debug perl on Vista using
mingw-w64.sf's 32-bit gcc-4.4.3 and it built fine.)
Please feel free to apply these patches (with or without modification) -
and, yes, you're more than welcome to blame me if they cause any breakages
;-)
Of course, some of those compilers (Borland, Microsoft, and the compilers
from mingw.org) already build perl *without* having to apply any patches.
It's just the other compilers that need the patches. The purpose of testing
with Borland, Microsoft, and the mingw.org compilers is just to check that
these patches don't break them.
As a final check, I've done a build on my aging linux (mandrake-9.1) box,
gcc-3.2.2. I built with '-des -Duselongdouble -Duse64bitint -Dusedevel'. No
problem with that, either.
If there's additional testing requirements please let me know, and I'll try
to oblige.
I believe the patch applied successfully for me - see below my sig for the
output.
Cheers,
Rob
