Hi all-
I have written an application that makes use of Perl to perform much of
its magic. In 10.1 and 10.2 this was working without a hitch, but the
new Panther is giving my program a fit. Specifically, I have embedded
much of libwww within my application bundle and then written a script
which makes use of it. When I run the script within an NSTask, I find
the following problem:
dyld: perl Undefined symbols:
_PL_curpad
_PL_errgv
... many more undefined symbols...
_perl_get_hv
_perl_get_sv
Trace/BPT trap
I have searched cocoa.mamasam.com and done some googling without luck.
Most of the info I have found says that the undefined symbols issue has
to do with incompatible libraries. My guesses are these:
1. My libwww is old and now broken in Perl 5.8.0 (which ships with
Panther)
2. Something is broken in the default Perl install in Panther.
I know there are a few Perl experts on this list (myself not among
them) - if anyone can shed any light on this issue, I would be very
grateful. Sorry for such a non-cocoa question!
John
