Hello Experts

Active Perl is a great Perl distribution for programming Perl under Windows Environment, but they do no longer deliver the prebuild DBD::Oracle Modle. As I understand, the reasons are any license claims from Oracle.

Now, I tryed to build the Module from CPAN.

-Download -perl Makefile.PL -make test -make install

(I don't have any problems with compiling the same module under different Unix flavors.)

By default no make is installed on M$ boxes. So i tryed it with different GNU Tools. (UWin, cygwin ..) but no success.

Does anybody know the environment needed for a successfull build?
Has anybody a prebuild 1.13 Version of the DBD::Oracle Module for Windows?
Or a place to download a prebuild version?

Any help would be appreciated.
Guido
