Why does Module::Build's testcover gives me "use of uninitialized value" warnings?
- by Kurt W. Leucht
I'm kinda new to Module::Build, so maybe I did something wrong. Am I the only one who gets warnings when I change my dispatch from "test" to "testcover"? Is there a bug in Devel::Cover? Is there a bug in Module::Build? I probably just did something wrong.
I'm using ActiveState Perl v5.10.0 with Module::Build version 0.31012 and Devel::Cover 0.64 and Eclipse 3.4.1 with EPIC 0.6.34 for my IDE.
UPDATE: I upgraded to Module::Build 0.34 and the warnings are still output.
*UPDATE: Looks like a bug in B::Deparse. Hope it gets fixed someday.*
Here's my unit test build file:
use strict;
use warnings;
use Module::Build;
my $build = Module::Build->resume (
properties => {
config_dir => '_build',
},
);
$build->dispatch('test');
When I run this unit test build file, I get the following output:
t\MyLib1.......ok
t\MyLib2.......ok
t\MyLib3.......ok
All tests successful.
Files=3, Tests=24, 0 wallclock secs ( 0.00 cusr + 0.00 csys = 0.00 CPU)
But when I change the dispatch line to 'testcover' I get the following output which always includes a bunch of "use of uninitialized value in bitwise and" warning messages:
