You could try Bug #45168 for Inline-CPP: The Makefile.PL does not properly set the library path on a mac. A patch is attached. Bug #42552 for Inline-CPP: All tests fail on recent debian/g++ versions. "iostream.h" not found problem.

Hi Anon, this looks exactly like what I'm looking for. But it's way over my pay-grade. update When it says "Setting STD_IOSTREAM to a true value helps, and all tests pass nicely.", what is STD_IOSTREAM? Is it an environment variable (I'm doing this on windows, so is it system or user)? And what does 'true' value mean? It could be "1" or does it mean a path to iostream.h which exists? ~~I tried setting the system environment variable STD_IOSTREAM to '1' and running with compiler g++, but the results are the same. So I feel I must have misunderstood the patch process.~~ OK, well I finally understood what the patch was saying. I edited the CPP.pm files and Makefile.PL manually (is there an automatic way of doing it?) the 'Makefile.PL' runs smoothly as does 'nmake'. But 'nmake test' gives: Read more... (11 kB) Thanks for all your efforts. Regards Steve	[reply] [d/l]

You're using gcc-3.4.5, so there should be no need to install the STD_IOSTREAM patch. One thing I would recommend is that you use 'dmake' (available from CPAN or, I think, as 'ppm install dmake'). That will at least remove that crappy old version of nmake you're using from the mix of things that could cause problems, though I doubt it's the problem here. With 'dmake' installed, check that `perl -V:make` reports 'dmake'. (You may need to remove 'nmake.exe' from your path for that to happen.) Then, in a freshly unpacked Inline-CPP-0.25 source folder, run 'perl Makefile.PL', accepting the prompts to use 'g++' and '-lstdc++'. Then run 'dmake test' and it should work ok. It's not a good idea to have mingw in the msys tree .... I think that can cause problems with msys, though it shouldn't be a problem here. The simplest way to get both 'dmake' and 'mingw' for ActivePerl is to run 'ppm install MinGW' - doesn't require any path alterations or other fiddling about. Let us know what, if any, errors arise - also the version of Parse::RecDescent that you installed. Cheers, Rob	[reply] [d/l]
