I agree. You can apply the patch. Ultimately one day all of %INC support in perlhost.h will have have to be made to use the wide apis so all wide char env vars roundtrip correctly between processes and through %INC. Note, to test this patch I used the raw wide win API since %INC was unusable. Currently perlhost.h (which implements %INC) either queries its own cache of env, or goes out to windows API. http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/blob/3630f57ef8a29a646a6848f4e93d25ac47093a3c:/win32/perlhost.h#l2402 http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/blob/3630f57ef8a29a646a6848f4e93d25ac47093a3c:/win32/perlhost.h#l2084 http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/blob/3630f57ef8a29a646a6848f4e93d25ac47093a3c:/win32/perlhost.h#l2134 http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/blob/3630f57ef8a29a646a6848f4e93d25ac47093a3c:/win32/win32.c#l1653 Plus hv.c will need some fixing to add the utf8 flag to the %INC if the env var isnt low ascii. Anyways, I'm done. You can apply the patch, and there should be enough notes in this ticket for someone in the future to work on the remainder of the problems. --- via perlbug: queue: perl5 status: open https://rt.perl.org:443/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=113536Thread Previous | Thread Next
