in reply to Message Queue in Perl

QuillMeantTen, for curiosity i tried to install Spread on my Mac (10.7.5) via cpanm and got the same error: 'sp.h' file not found.

But after downloading the sources from spread.org and compiling them i had success:

karls-mac-mini:spread-src-4.4.0 karl$ cpanm Spread --> Working on Spread Fetching http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/J/JE/JESUS/Spread-3.17.4.4.tar +.gz ... OK Configuring Spread-3.17.4.4 ... OK Building and testing Spread-v3.17.4.4 ... OK Successfully installed Spread-v3.17.4.4 1 distribution installed karls-mac-mini:spread-src-4.4.0 karl$ perl -MSpread ^C

I hope that helps or is at least inspiring ;-)

Minor Edit: Fixed my name...

Best regards, Karl

    "...it works."

    Very nice. But before i do more RTFM about what this new module on my box is good for it would be nice to hear something about what your plan/project is...

    Best regards, Karl

      I can tell you. .. But then I'll have to kill you.

      nah, more seriously I've been learning perl for about two weeks to prepare myself for next university year (last one before a master in computer security) I decided to write a surveillance/log management system that would parse logs, fill dublin core style tables in a mysql database and then run diagnostics to detect discrepancies that might indicate hostile activities
      with that data it would write reports and email them. Each main unit should be able to run on a separate machine. Hence the message queue issue

        "...I'll have to kill you"

        We will see... i'm > 6ft, ~90kg - this is Cruiserweight ;-)

        Thank you very much for your explanation and best regards, Karl
