Re^2: GD and PAR/CAVA packager (depends.exe)

Unfortunately I'm not really competent with managing DLLs or dealing with these things, as I'm not a computer scientist. Anyway, when I run Dependency Walker on GD.dll I get a list of about 30 or more other DLLs. For two of them, actually, IESHIMS.DLL and WER.DLL, I get the warning "Error opening file. The system cannot find the file specified". So, if I understood correctly, I would have to add all of these 30 or so DLLs manually in the PP command line?

Thank you

You shouldn't have to manually add the dlls. pp uses Module::ScanDeps under the hood, and it'll take care of the dependencies for you. You will probably need to manually add GD to the command like this: `/usr/bin/pp --gui -n -c -M GD -B -o out.exe script.pl` [download] See the documentation for the options. Give it a try and Good Luck!	[reply] [d/l]

No, not all 30, you're probably only missing libbgd.dll , should be located somewhere near where you installed perl or cygwin or mingw In general, you don't add the .dll's that come with the operating system , stuff under %WINDIR%, %windir%\system32, like kernel32.dll user32.dll gdi32.dll comdlg32.dll advapi32.dll shell32.dll mciole32.dll ole32.dll oleaut32.dll netapi32.dll ws2_32.dll cmprops.dll mpr.dll mprapi.dll mprddm.dll mprdim.dll mprmsg.dll mprui.dll winmm.dll version.dll odbc32.dll odbc32gt.dll odbccp32.dll comctl32.dll `$ perl -V:libs libs=' -lmoldname -lkernel32 -luser32 -lgdi32 -lwinspool -lcomdlg32 -l +advapi32 -lshell32 -lole32 -loleaut32 -lnetapi32 -luuid -lws2_32 -lmp +r -lwinmm -lversion -lodbc32 -lodbccp32 -lcomctl32 ';` [download] kernel32.... they all come from microsoft with windows	[reply] [d/l]
