`abi-dumper` failure

`abi-dumper` failure

Closed this issue 6 years ago · 5 comments

I've got the following trying to dump a trivial static library:

Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated here (and will be fatal in Perl 5.30), passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/(\w){ <-- HERE / at /usr/bin/abi-dumper line 3200.
ERROR: analysis of static libraries is not supported, please dump ABIs of individual objects in the archive or compile a shared library

My perl version is:

$ perl --version

This is perl 5, version 26, subversion 1 (v5.26.1) built for x86_64-linux
(with 27 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)

Hello @zaufi , after upgrade my Xubuntu I've got the same problem in the same Perl version you reported.

Edit:

After upgrading to use latest trunk version of abi-dumper:

ERROR: can't access '/the/path/of/my/library/file.so'

I've tried Perl 5.20.3 and 5.24.4 too, but same problem.

Additional note: on Xubuntu 16.04 it works fine using Perl 5.22.1, but using the same Perl version on Xubuntu 18.04 it raises the reported problems.

After upgrading to use latest trunk version of abi-dumper:
ERROR: can't access '/the/path/of/my/library/file.so'

Please check it by:

file /the/path/of/my/library/file.so

Thank you.
