9mohit2 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Please can someone provide me links o donwload MinGW and dmake offline installers for Windows 10 64 bit. I am using ActivePerl and due to corporate restrictions I am not able to use PPM and CPAN utility tools. Thanks in advance. Please give links to offline installers as those needing internet connectivity during installation will not be installed in my network.

      Hi @beech, Thanks for the links but the activestate link for MinGW (http://code.activestate.com/ppm/MinGW/) does not seems to have the required files. Please suggest any other link for it.

        Click the version of ActiveState you use, then a download link will be displayed, or contact ActiveState Support, or just use Strawberry perl and make life easier for yourself :)

    I may be answering the wrong question but my memory of ActiveState is that it already has a make choice available. It just may not be Dmake. To see what make your ActiveState installation is using type;

    perl  -V:make

    If you are trying to build packages that don't already have a ppm available to you then it won't always be successful to use any c compiler make program. You need to use the one that was used for your ActiveState build to ensure compatibility

    If it's a firewall blocking you, you may be able to establish firewall authentication by accessing the following URL from your web browser:

    http://www.cpan.org/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz

    Then try the cpan command.

    For Strawberry Perl, try:

    http://cpan.strawberryperl.com/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz

    I don't know if ActivePerl's cpan tool uses an ActivePerl specific URL, but ActiveState should be able to tell you what that is.
