in reply to Padre and Strawberry Perl problems

I will try to switching to Strawberry Perl 32bit as I read that compiler doesn't have these issues?

No.

A failing test is generally not a compiler issue, so 32bit or 64bit, makes no difference.

Look at the matrix, look at the win32 reports, version format error, unexpected warning ... these are not 32/64 bit compiler issues, the module got compiled successfully, it just failed a few tests

Other than that is it possible to install Padre first and then update the Strawberry Perl?

No.

But, as long as you it using a portable perl, and you don't overwrite that perl with a new perl, then you'll have two perls installed, and in that way you can install padre and then upgrade your perl, and padre will still work

    Piling on I will note that strawberry-perl-5.22.1.2-64bit will not allow Padre to install, and neither will the 14 January snapshot of OpenBSD. The former fails as described above, and the latter says it wants a perl compiled with threads. The real absurdity is that I only wanted Padre because I read it has a vi mode, and I want a vi for Win 7. Not vim, really; I want good old nvi.
