I have installed Activeperl on my Win98 system. I want to install a module Term::ReadKey from CPAN. I do not have C compiler. I have copied zip file from CPAN and unzipped. But I am filing in installation second step at 'make test'. The error is like this:
---------------------------------------------------------- C:\ActivePerl\examples\readkey\TermReadKey-2.14>perl makefile.pl Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Usage: xsubpp [-v] [-C++] [-except] [-prototypes] [-noversioncheck] [- +nolinenumb ers] [-nooptimize] [-noinout] [-noargtypes] [-s pattern] [-typemap typ +emap]... f ile.xs Writing Makefile for Term::ReadKey C:\ActivePerl\examples\readkey\TermReadKey-2.14>make test Error on line 787: expecting target : dependencies ----------------------------------------------------------
Can someone help me pl? Thanks Ashok
