[Devel] Re: perl module on solaris

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Bastian,

I guess the <perl.h> file is correctly located and included.

perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccopts ->
 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 
-I/usr/perl5/5.6.1/lib/sun4-solaris-64int/CORE

I took a look into the perl.h file and I didn't find any 
PERL_EXIT_DESTRUCT_END, but only PERL_EXIT_EXPECTED.

so, it looks like this flag does not exists in this perl lib :(
    SunOS sparc-solaris1 5.9 Generic_112233-03 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-60

regards,
bogdan
