data:uuid module

koryw has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi I'm trying to us the data:uuid module, and I keep getting core dump and memory fault errors. I've used the examples on the CPAN web site, but I can't get it to work. The module is compiled correctly and I'm using with Perl 5.6.1. Does anyone have sample code of getting this module to work correctly. I would appreciate some ideas.

Can you tell us: What platform you are using? What version of perl your using? What version of Data::UUID you are using? How did you compile and install it? Did any of the tests fail at install time? I've used Data::UUID on several platforms with no problems so I'm at a bit of a loss without more info.	[reply]

Platform: HPUX 11 Perl version perl 5.6.1 DATA::UIID version: 0.09 Compiled and installed: Compiled with HP C compiler All test where successful. Maybe I'm just not coding it right. I may need to look at an example.	[reply]

Well, if the tests pass you have some examples of working code in the test script for the module. It's odd that it segfaults. If you can get a small piece of code that does this repeatedly it would be a good idea to submit a bug report.	[reply]
