[ID 19991110.007] Perl 5.005_62 and Win32::OLE 0.1101
Message ID:

This is a bug report for perl from gustav@morpheus.demon.co.uk,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.27 running under perl 5.00562.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please enter your report here]
Building Win32::OLE 0.1101 with Perl 5.005_62 (NT4SP5, VC6SP3) I
get an Application Error in t/3_ole.t (code referening memory at
0x0000001c).
The test uses Excel, and I have Excel 2000 installed, so there
may be a version issue, but I have put trace print statements
into the code, and it looks like the problem occurs sometime
while Win32::OLE::Const is being *loaded*, but before the import
subroutine is run.
The only nontrivial code I can see which is run when the module is
required, is my $Typelibs = __PACKAGE__->_Typelibs();
I put a croak() at the start of the _Typelibs() code, and the
crash still occurred (ie, it occurred before the croak).
I now don't know what is likely to be the problem...
Some other notes:
1. PERL_INTERNAL_GLOB requires my Win32 patches. Otherwise,
MakeMaker breaks - it generates TEST_FILES = t*.t, which
presumably came from t\*.t with the \ "quoting" the *.
2. My initial build had Sarathy's STOP block patch and my
File::Glob patch included. Taking these out made no difference.
(beyond the fact that nmake test failed to work, as I
mentioned above).
3. I rebuilt with USE_BINMODE_SCRIPTS removed. That made no
difference...
