DBI Compile Under Win32 Perl 5.005

jk2addict has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Ok, this is basically a blatent plea for help from a monk who also knows his stuff when compiling modules under win32.

In hopes of testing a new project under 5.005, 5.6.1, and 5.8.4, I've installed those ActiveState versions of perl on my laptop running XP with Visual c++ installed. Now normally, one could just use their ppm utility to install prcompiled versions of modules. Unfortunately , their 5.005 only has DBI 1.14 available.

My goal was/is to install 1.37 on all three versions so I'm testing on a somewhat level playing field as far as DBI/Class::DBI, etc are concerned, and because it's the last version to support 5.005.

So far, perl Makefile.PL, nmake, and nmake test run just fine on 5.6.1 and 5.8.4. Unfortunately under 5.005, nmake completely craps out with stuff I'll never understand. Any monks out there know of a precompiled DBI for 5.005 win32?

Here's the output:

Re^2: DBI Compile Under Win32 Perl 5.005_03

Color me stupid. 5.5.x == 5.005_03? Damn version strings are evil to this day.

The main reason I'm shooting for 5.005_3 is that all of the FreeBSD 4.x boxen have that in the stock OS, with no real need to upgrade to 5.6.1 in most cases. Worst case I'll just wait to test under 5.005 on those things later.

I have however, had a few other thoughts.

The first line of trouble would seem to indicate a mismatch in the linker even though I'm using the same make/linker used to make the version of perl. Makebe my C++ install is too new (Service Packe 6) and therehave been linker changes mucking the works. It might be worth a shot of simply compiling the ActiveState 5.005 sources on my machine and go from there.

I also stumbled across some mention of templates and namespace issue while compiling modules on win32, but I'll be darned if I can find that now.

Just as an update. I compiled a fresh copy of perl 5.005 and compiling modules against that version were still unhappy.

Even if I went with the lower version of DBI, Class::DBI still needed Storable > 2.04, which wouldn't compile either, and the ActiveState ppm version was < 1.0. No love there.
