Hello monks,
I'm getting an odd warning whenever I try to generate
a Makefile using ExtUtils::MakeMaker. I'm using MakeMaker
version 5.45 on perl 5.6.1. It only happens with one of
my modules. So, there must be something going on in my
module that is causing it, but I don't even know where to
start looking. Has anybody else ever encountered this
warning? Can somebody fill me in on what it means, or
what to check for in my module? The module was created
using 'h2xs -X'.
WARNING: Setting ABSTRACT via file 'NewModule.pm' failed
at /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm line 507
Like I said, it's a warning. The Makefile does get
generated properly, and it works fine. I'm just really
curious about this warning.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
