Update here. I am a new comer to Perl, and it takes one day to investigate this issue. I have not fixed it, while I find some useful info.

I use "make testdb TEST_FILE=t/map8.t", when excuting the below line:

print "not " unless $no->recode8($l1, "xyz{|}") eq "xyzæøå";
[download]

I see " DB<2> x $! 0 'Bad file descriptor'", so I guess it seems caused by recode8(). I commented all recode() and modify the test count in map8.t, and then run "make test" again, it is "PASSED". In order to look more deeply, I created the simply test file including recode8:(named cm.t)

print "1..1\n";

use strict;
use Unicode::Map8 qw(NOCHAR);

print "MAPS_DIR = $Unicode::Map8::MAPS_DIR\n";

my $l1 = Unicode::Map8->new("latin1") || die;
my $no = Unicode::Map8->new("no")     || die;

#print "not " unless $no->recode8($l1, "xyz{|}") eq "xyzæøå";

my $t1 = $no->recode8($l1, "xyz{|}");

print "ok 1\n";

make test again

[root@sparts Unicode-Map8-0.13-kCcefS]# make test

I also see recode8() is defined in Map8.xs

recode8(m1, m2, str)
        Map8* m1
        Map8* m2
        PREINIT:
            STRLEN len;
            STRLEN rlen;
            char*  res;
        INPUT:
            char* str = SvPV(ST(2), len);
        CODE:
            RETVAL = newSV(len + 1);
            SvPOK_on(RETVAL);
            res = SvPVX(RETVAL);
            map8_recode8(m1, m2, str, res, len, &rlen);
            res[rlen] = '\0';
            SvCUR_set(RETVAL, rlen);
        OUTPUT:
            RETVAL
[download]

It needs 3 parameters:($m1,$m2,str), and I try to modify the cm.t as "my $t1 = $no->recode8($no, $l1, "xyz{|}");" and then "make test" also show the same error. Here, I do not know how to do it next, can you pls give any hint? Thanks, Phillip
