From fe3db7d6f055ec432d43f417cdf8d93897386aa4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fred Drake Date: Thu, 2 May 2002 20:42:30 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Work around limitation of Cygwin Perl: To avoid a permission denial, we need to do the inplace-edit with a backup file. A quick test leads me to believe this is sufficient to allow building the documentation on Cygwin; a full test is in progress. --- Doc/tools/node2label.pl | 11 ++++++++++- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/Doc/tools/node2label.pl b/Doc/tools/node2label.pl index 90f0c18933a..a3c6c84a89e 100755 --- a/Doc/tools/node2label.pl +++ b/Doc/tools/node2label.pl @@ -1,7 +1,12 @@ #! /usr/bin/env perl +# On Cygwin, we actually have to generate a temporary file when doing +# the inplace edit, or we'll get permission errors.
