I just tried to replace tools/pidl/ with the current samba rsync version.
The result doesn't look too good:

jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/svn/trunk/epan/dissectors/pidl> ../../../tools/pidl/pidl --ws-parser -- atsvc.idl
defined(@array) is deprecated at /home/jmayer/work/wireshark/svn/trunk/tools/pidl/lib/Parse/Pidl/ODL.pm line 73.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)
defined(@array) is deprecated at ../../../tools/pidl/pidl line 608.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)
Compiling atsvc.idl
/usr/include/stdc-predef.h:0: error: Syntax error near '3'
Failed to parse atsvc.idl at ../../../tools/pidl/pidl line 608.
jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/svn/trunk/epan/dissectors/pidl> perl -version

This is perl 5, version 16, subversion 2 (v5.16.2) built for i586-linux-thread-multi
[...]

Any idea about what's going wrong here?

And when I try to do a "make install" for pidl and then run it:
jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/svn/trunk/epan/dissectors/pidl> pidl --ws-parser -- atsvc.idl Can't locate Parse/Pidl.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/bin/../share/perl5 /usr/bin/lib /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16.2/i586-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16.2 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.2/i586-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.2 /usr/lib/perl5/5.16.2/i586-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.16.2 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at /usr/bin/pidl line 410.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/pidl line 410.

Which looks like the make install target doesn't work on opensuse 12.3.

Ciao

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
