Re^4: Garbage collection problem?? (Win32 CRTL malloc)

Where did I say I was using cygwin? That wouldn't make sense given that I said:

the blame can likely be placed on the malloc() of Win32's CRTL and that cygwin-built Perls doesn't use that version of malloc()

But I did find a cygwin perl and see that "perl -V" for it reports "usemymalloc=y" while non-cygwin Win32 Perl reports "usemymalloc=n", as I suspected.

You didn't ... I just made a (foolish) assumption that you were using it. (I keep thinking that the only Win32 perls are ActiveState and the cygwin-compiled one ... even though I should know better). --roboticus	[reply]

I keep thinking that the only Win32 perls are ActiveState and the cygwin-compiled one. Have a look at win32.perl.org. -- vek --	[reply]
