Hello.
Long story short, recently upgraded perl (and other stuff) on a machine.
All went according to plan.
Except for one thing:
Newer perl versions no longer include perlcc.
We've got a perl script that was 'compiled' using perlcc, but now it can't run because it's been linked to the old libperl version, which is no longer available.
The 'compiled script' executable is still required - it's part of a much larger custom software solution.
So, is there a quick & easy replacement or alternative for perlcc? |

Well, as a workaround I've gotten a very basic c wrapper now that seems to do the trick
| Code: | #define REAL_PATH "/path/to/myscript.pl"
main(ac, av)
char **av;
{
execv(REAL_PATH, av);
}

| If that shim works, could you not just place the non-compiled script text under the same name and have that work too? |
