in reply to Padre and Strawberry Perl problems

If i recall it correctly for windows you must download the dwimperl Perl version. Infact also in the Padre's download page is stated the same.

There is also a standalone version of Padre, see Padre's howto

    :) Install padre from cpan, the padre included with dwimperl for windows is as old as dwim perl for windows, which is still a very old release candidate of http://strawberryperl.com/release-notes/5.14.2.1-32bit.html ... newer versions of strawberryperl comes with newer gcc toolchain ... there have been 20 releases since then
      If i recall it correctly... i did'nt obviously!
      thanks for update me Anonymous Monk

      how did you address all these failed tests and failed installation issues?

        how did you address all these failed tests and failed installation issues?

        What issues? Please be specific.

        If you're talking test failures, 8 times out of 10 its simply a bad test, so I just ignore it. The other times its simply one missing feature -- not a big deal.

        For all other "issue" I check the bug cue for patches -- annoying yes, you could try getting the tarball/zipfile from github and trying to install that

        Other than helping other figure out installation issues, I don't actually use Padre ... last time I installed it was in 2014
