in reply to Installing PadWalker

I am trying to install Net::Stripe onto shared hosting where I do not have access to compilers.

If it needs a compiler, its not gonna happen without a compiler.

You don't have to have a compiler uploaded on the host...

But...there are shared objects in the PadWalker directory:

.dll or .so are loadable objects

    So are the .xs and .c files source code to be compiled?

      That's correct. If you're not compiling them on the target machine, they need to be complied on a machine with at least the same architecture and the same Perl version as the target machine - optimally as similar to the target machine as possible, since there's a lot of moving parts involved - and only then could you copy the built files over to the target and it should work.
