Re^5: unable to install warnings.pm under Cygwin

When you create an executable using pp, the executable normally only runs on the same OS it was created under. Since you created it under Cygwin, it likely will only run under another Cygwin installation (may even require the same version of Cygwin)

If your Perl application is pure Perl, pp can create a PAR file that might run via the parl command on other OSs.

my script is a pure perl script using LibXml module. other colleagues used pp to run exe script created under Cygwin on the same solaris server.	[reply]

it works now ! the problem was just to have the same perl library version. whatever the OS is. Cygwin and linux uses the same binary system coding. On solaris we had 5.8.4 and on cygwin 5.22.0 when alligning the two systems. the excecutable package worked without installing any needed library on Solaris ! its just genius the PAR Package!	[reply]
