Description Björn Michaelsen 2011-08-02 01:59:15 UTC 
==== remove cruft from perl scripts ====

<p><b>Background:</b> Our perl installer script: solenv/bin/make_installer.pl has lots of legacy features that can be removed - eg. solenv/bin/build.pl has a 'server' mode - which seems rather un-necessary (acceleration via icecream/ccache is rather better) - the --server flag and association code and options need removing.

</p><p>The Perl code also could do with some reformatting to make the lines less long. Simplification of the package naming convention to make the class names less verbose would make the code more readable.

</p><p><b>Skills:</b> perl

it appears this has already been fixed. The --server flag is not read in the current version of the Perl module parameter.pm which reads the command line arguments

    Remove --server mode and supporting code from build.pl.
