|
|

perlhaiku - Perl version 5.10+ on Haiku
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This file contains instructions how to build Perl for Haiku and lists
|
|
known problems.
|
|
|
|
=head1 BUILD AND INSTALL
|
|
|
|
The build procedure is completely standard:
|
|
|
|
./Configure -de
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
Make perl executable and create a symlink for libperl:
|
|
|
|
chmod a+x /boot/common/bin/perl
|
|
cd /boot/common/lib; ln -s perl5/5.30.0/BePC-haiku/CORE/libperl.so .
|
|
|
|
Replace C<5.30.0> with your respective version of Perl.
|
|
|
|
=head1 KNOWN PROBLEMS

The following problems are encountered with Haiku revision 28311:

|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
Perl cannot be compiled with threading support ATM.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
The F<cpan/Socket/t/socketpair.t> test fails. More precisely: the subtests
|
|
using datagram sockets fail. Unix datagram sockets aren't implemented in
|
|
Haiku yet.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
A subtest of the F<cpan/Sys-Syslog/t/syslog.t> test fails. This is due to Haiku
|
|
not implementing F</dev/log> support yet.
|
|
|
|
=item *
|
|
|
|
The tests F<dist/Net-Ping/t/450_service.t> and F<dist/Net-Ping/t/510_ping_udp.t>
|
|
fail. This is due to bugs in Haiku's network stack implementation.
