Re: Re: DBD-Oracle missing via PPM?

It has been a long time since I used perl on Windows!!!

I remember that http://www.activestate.com/packages/ was a good source for packages (i never liked ppm)

is it possible to do perl -MCPAN -e shell with activestate perl?

To answer your immediate question - yes, you can use the CPAN shell with activestate Perl. Remember though - if the module you are attempting to install has any C code then you'll also need a compiler. The benefit of using ppm on Windows is that you'll be installing a pre-compiled binaries (dll's etc). -- vek --	[reply]
