Well,

 

Now you've got something started, I also have a couple of comments on r380
with regards to winallator. (I'm not a member of the dev-list)

 

1.	First of all, one should be aware that in some countries, comma's
are used instead of digits for decimal symbols. The current code only
accepts "." (period), whereas my systems use "," (comma). I was able to add
the required substitions in Sourcefile.pm but still.
2.	Somebody left debug print commands in there that come up while
parsing files. yikes :-)
3.	There are counters (like for Citrix e.g.) that produce integers as
output,  i.e.  54 ; 87; etc
That apparently is a problem for winallator, since it always expects numbers
like 54.00  (floats). Hence the error "conversion to float incomplete"
errors by the thousands :-o
4.	This is a typical headerline of a datafile for me:

"(PDH-TSV 4.0) (Romance Standard Time)(-120)"
\\OVERDRIVE\Processor(_Total)\%
<file:///\\OVERDRIVE\Processor(_Total)\%25%20Processor%20Time>  Processor
Time

There is a problem with the first column which in the code apparently
substitutes to "timestamp" , in analogy with orcallator. The first run,
things seem to run OK, but consequent runs just bork with some error on how
the "-" sign in this column didn't work out as a valid substraction. Of
course it didn't, it isn't one !

 

Maybe someone could slip these on to the dev working on the winallator part
? 

 

Thanks a bunch!

This may not be the right forum for this, but here goes anyway:  Scold me if
you like.

Was building snapshot r380 on a Solaris 9 box with stock Perl installed.
Trying to incorporate "winallator" into our infrastructure.  Came across
this error when building "version":

The "Test/More.pm" file I found in ../Storable-2.13/t/Test, so I did this:

dmichael at npd-flurry <packages/version-0.41><219> ln -s
../Storable-2.13/t/Test .


And then the "make test" went smoothly.
