[Gnump3d-users] file.types still not found on windows

[C. Menge]

Hi,

I've been trying to convince the newest CVS gnump3d to accept the
file_types variable in gnump3d.conf.win for about an hour now - without
success.


Only by hardcoding the path to
> gnump3d::config::read_config_file( "D:/Tools/gnump3d/etc/file.types" );
in files.pm the gnump3d script starts up properly on windows.

When only "file_types = D:/Tools/gnump3d/etc/file.types" is set in
gnump3d.conf.win, the console complains about it:

> D:\Tools\GNUmp3d>run
> Global symbol "$file_types" requires explicit package name at 
> D:\Tools\GNUmp3d\lib/gnump3d/files.pm line 228.
> Global symbol "$file_types" requires explicit package name at 
> D:\Tools\GNUmp3d\lib/gnump3d/files.pm line 270.
> Global symbol "$file_types" requires explicit package name at 
> D:\Tools\GNUmp3d\lib/gnump3d/files.pm line 311.
> Compilation failed in require at D:\Tools\GNUmp3d\bin\gnump3d2 line 74.
> BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at D:\Tools\GNUmp3d\bin\gnump3d2 line 74.

I suspected a problem in path handling, but the mime_file definition in
the same format just a line before it seems to go through just fine, so
it must be something more obscure.

Too obscure for my limited understanding of perl and perl debugging :-)
