in reply to WIn32::gui Miscellaneous

Can't offer too much help as I'm a bit of a newbie myself but I used perl5.dll to minimize the size of my executable and a side-effect of that is that my exe's seemed to fire up quicker. However this requires that perl5.dll is distributed to all the machines that will run the exe which is ok in my environment but might not be suitable for yours.

    Hi.

    Im wondering if you can give me your syntax you are using on the command line to do this

    I tried a simple hello script:

    pp -d -o test.exe test.pl

    And I get the errors:

    Goto undefined subroutine &DynaLoader::bootstrap_inherit at C:/aperl58/lib/XSLoa der.pm line 95.

    Compilation failed in require at C:/aperl58/lib/IO/Handle.pm line 260.

    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/aperl58/lib/IO/Handle.pm line 260.

    Compilation failed in require at C:/aperl58/lib/IO/Seekable.pm line 101. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at

    C:/aperl58/lib/IO/Seekable.pm line 101. Compilation failed in require at C:/aperl58/lib/IO/File.pm line 117.

    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/aperl58/lib/IO/File.pm line 117.

    Compilation failed in require at -e line 305.

    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 835.

    Im using perl from Activestate for Win32:

    v5.8.6 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread

    Can I run this command with this version of perl or is there something special I should be doing?

    Eager to try this out.
