in reply to Re^2: RFC: Win32::API API (names)
in thread RFC: Win32::API API

tye:

For the default thing, I was thinking along the lines of leaving the setting to "on", but only load Math::Int64 on demand. In other words, I was hoping to *not* load it until someone actually defined an API using 'q'. But that would likely overcomplicate things.

An alternative suggestion: If Math::Int64 is loaded and you're on a perl without quad support, *then* set the default to yes. Does that sound a bit more reasonable?

Update: Ever since my eye trouble, I notice myself missing things. On re-reading, I notice that you already suggested my alternative proposal. (Note: Don't get a retinal tear. They suck. Six months later, and my left eye *still* looks like I'm looking through a snow-globe.)
