ashuperl has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi All,
I am new to Perl and porting work.
From whatever I read over web and Configure file
script, there is a need of SSH connectivity between
the target device and the host platform.
Is there a way if there is no SSH I can try using the
cross compiler. I am using "gcc version 4.1.0
(Sourcery G++ 4.1-6) arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc" cross
compiler. Host platform is Linux on intel and target
is Linux on ARM926EJS.
If you have any document that could be a great help.
Thanks & Regards,
ashu

Configure checks header files, and writes, compiles and runs various
C programs on the fly to configure perl, so cross-compiled code must
run on the target platform. The only other way I know would be configuring
on the target host, and cross-compiling on the build host. For Configure
to run on the target host you need a compiler there.
If you can't run Configure on the target host, run it on the build host
and edit config.sh at the end of the configure process. You will
have to find out all the configurable values yourself, though.
