Re: Imager::File::TIFF Dependencies

[marto]

when using pp I tend to include the -x flag to determine additional runtime requirements.

[BrentD]

Tried doing pp -x -o test.exe program.pl Running the resultant test.exe produces exactly the same result as from my original post.

[marto]

If you can post a minimal example program which replicates your problem, along with your perl version I'll try to replicate and diagnose further.

[BrentD]

Here's a stripped down version of the program that demonstrates the problem:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use File::Path;
use Imager;
use Imager::Font::W32;
use Imager::File::TIFF;
use Carp 'verbose';

my $filename = "c:\\temp\\test\\errtest.tif";

my $white = Imager::Color->new(255, 255, 255);
my $black = Imager::Color->new(0,0,0);

my $xres = 240; #Horizontal Resolution (in DPI) of image
my $yres = 240; #Vertical Resolution (in DPI) of image
my $PageWidth = 8.5;
my $PageHeight = 11;

#-- End Paramaters --#

my $xsize = $xres * $PageWidth; # Horizontal Page Size (Resolution * I
+nches)
my $ysize = $yres * $PageHeight;  # Vertical Page Size (Resolution * I
+nches)

my $img = Imager->new(xsize=>$xsize,ysize=>$ysize);

$img->settag(name =>'i_xres',value => $xres,
             name =>'i_yres',value => $yres,
             name =>'tiff_resolutionunit', value => 2); # Set the reso
+lution unit to DPI

# Load up Windows Font Face
my $Font_Arial_Bold = Imager::Font->new(face => 'Arial Bold') or carp(
+"Cannot load 'Arial Bold: ".Imager->errstr);

$img->box(filled=>1, color=>$white); #Give our new page a white backgr
+ound

$Font_Arial_Bold->align(string => 'Test',
                        size => 80,
                        color =>$black,
                        x => $img->getwidth/2,
                        y => 250,
                        halign => 'center',
                        valign => 'center',
                        image => $img);

my $bilevel = $img->to_paletted(make_colors => 'mono',
                                translate => 'errdiff',
                                errdiff => 'stucki');

$bilevel->write(file => $filename,
                type => 'tiff',
                i_xres=> $xres,
                i_yres=> $yres,
                tiff_compression => 4);

And here is the command I packaged it with:

C:\Source_Repos\TestProg>pp -x -o test9.exe errtest.pl

Then I moved it over to another machine (A Virtual Box running Windows 10 64-bit) and ran it:

E:\>test9.exe

I am fairly positive that the file it's asking about, c6dc6748.xs.dll is actually C:\Strawberry\perl\vendor\lib\auto\Imager\File\TIFF\TIFF.xs.dll, as that c6dc6748 is the CRC32 of the TIFF.xs.dll in the compressed archive file (as opened in WinRAR by changing the .exe to a .zip).

The version of pp you are using would also help.
