giwei has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Guys I would be very appreciated if anyone can help me analysis this problem.

When I use perlcc to compile my script "Rncproxy.pl" into c. It just stops there and said: 

/usr/local/bin/perlcc: Calling /usr/local/bin/perl -I/usr/local/lib/pe
+rl5/5.8.4/sun4-solaris -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.4 -I/usr/local/lib/
+perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/sun4-solaris -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5
+.8.4 -I/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl -I.  -uDB,-uPod,-uPod::Usage,-u

+not compile, which can't happen:

When I use Ggb to debug the core file.

    Welcome to the Monastery, please don't ignore the advice displayed regarding formatting of posts.

    The recently resurrected perlcc is now, and as far as I'm aware always has been somewhat experimental:

    "The code generated in this way is not guaranteed to work. The whole codegen suite (perlcc included) should be considered very experimental. Use for production purposes is strongly discouraged."

    And you're using a pretty old ( ~6 years) version of perl.

    If your goal is to package a script along with it's dependant modules perhaps you'd have more luck using pp.

    See also Steffen Müller's Application Deployment and Dependency Management with PAR slides.

    Updated: Fixed typo.

    You are using a very old version of perlcc/B::C with a lot of known problems.

    Update your B::C. Search on CPAN or check http://perl-compiler.org/
