Well i know i said i fixed my issue of crashing last night and i thought i did till i went to camp and perlzone crashed. So i took it one step farther and took a long shot (wild guess). I noticed reinstalling IO::Scalar a different way changed the crashing so i went with a whole different perl install. I uninstalled perl 5.8.2 and installed ActivePerl-5.8.7.813-MSWin32-x86-148120. As of now for the last 2 1/2 hours logining in and out zoneing hailing attacking trying quest's you name it i tryed it. I am willing to say non the least that it has got to be an issue with perl 5.8.2 cause i am now saying what ever i try i can NOT get a crash now even doing what i did to make it crash before. so if someone that has the crashing issue can also install perl 5.8.7.813 and install IO::Scalar give it a try and respond back.

Er..No I havent fixed my crashing problem yet..I do have perl build 813 so I guess I will try the other one that jimm0thy is using..
But the big news for me is...Woot! I got zoneperl to build in C++!
So today I am going to try to learn a little something about C++ as I have only programmed with Delphi and know nothing of C++ at this point.

So I will be back in a few days to try again on this..I want to try to get a separate server going and my parts should be in for it by then..

For now I will keep learning this Krazy thing called C++ and hopefully I can help to fix bugs someday.

i dunno i know with 5.8.2.808 with useing IO:string DBD-mysql and DBI i had crashing. removed perl and reinstalled IO::scalar the other way it changed the crashing. By useing a newer version of perl and only installing IO::scalar by the method posted in this thread and not installing DBD-mysql or DBI as one of the tuts here says to do. i have had no crashing so it can't be an issues with his compiled release as it would be still crashing for me and its not.

and good job on getting yours to compile something i tryed and gave up on heh.
