Re: ExtUtils::XSpp usage for a novice

Need ExtUtils::Typemap as argument

ExtUtils::Typemap is a wrapper around ExtUtils::Typemaps which a part of ExtUtils::ParseXS. The name was changed to prevent collisions on case-insensitive systems.

In order to use ExtUtils::Typemap, there are a few non-core dependencies that need to be installed:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use CPAN;

use CPAN::Shell->install(qw(
install
Spiffy
ExtUtils::Typemap
ExtUtils::Typemaps::Default));
[download]

Try that, then give it another shot.

No. I suggest that you do some more research. You undershot the runway:). Spiffy is a dependency of ExtUtils::XSpp.	[reply]

No. I suggest that you do some more research. You undershot the runway:). Spiffy is a dependency of ExtUtils::XSpp. What more research? Shall I quote your own words for you again? Ok, you said In order to use ExtUtils::Typemap, there are a few non-core dependencies that need to be installed: ExtUtils::XSpp is not ExtUtils::Typemap, and Spiffy is not a dependency of ExtUtils::Typemap cpan doesn't need help figuring out dependencies, core or otherwise -- this is what the utility is all about All your spiffy program does is make folks think perl/cpan must be really FUBARed that you need to write a program to install some module when you don't, since `cpan ExtUtils::Typemap` installs everything required Btw, 1297 nodes and you're still replying to yourself?
