Hi.
I have developed a little application retrieving some information
on the net using HTTP protocol and the "www.pl" package developped
by Roy Fielding.
I do not have any problem running the application on a Sparc/Solaris
platform.
But I decided to test it on a PC/NT platform and ... :( for this
I downloaded the ActivePerl package available at:
http://www.activestate.com/ActivePerl/
And when running my script I get "alarm function not found". This
function is a builtin function present in the Unix Perl but it
does not seem to exist in the PC Perl variant :(
It there any work around ?
Best regards,
/Pascal.
