The file compiles clean ... if you add option -TP to cause the compiler to treat the file as C++ .

Easiest way to achieve that is to start the build process with perl Makefile.PL CC="cl -TP".
For me, that allows Encode-Detect-1.01 to build ok (though I first had to copy the 2 header files that are in the 'include' folder into the 'src' folder). However, I strike runtime problems when running the test suite:
Can't locate loadable object for module Encode::Detect::Detector
I haven't the time at the moment to take a look at what's going wrong there. It's the same problem if I build with MinGW (starting with perl Makefile.PL CC="g++").

Cheers,
Rob
