Re^9: Move/Copy files using Clipboard!

Now what?

Now, you need to

download Win32::Clipboard-052.tar.gz from cpan

put it into a directory

gunzip it

untar it

check that your compiler environment variables are set up (type set at the cmd prompt and look for INCLUDE=... and LIB=.. etc. If not, check the bin directory where you installed the compiler for a file named something similar to mscvars.bat, and then run it.

run makefile.pl

then nmake

then nmake test

That will al look something like this:

c:\Perl\packages>wget -c http://cpan.m.flirble.org/authors/id/H/HI/HIM
+AZU/Win32/Win32-Clipboard-0.52.tar.gz

When you get to the point where you see "All tests successful.", come back and I'll tell you how to apply the patch.

And please, do go back and read those guidelines again, carefully. Believe me, everything you need to know is there, has been vetted, often through use, by many of the monks here, and is much more clearly explained, with less likelyhood of errors, than I can do it.

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal?

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

The "good enough" maybe good enough for the now, and perfection maybe unobtainable, but that should not preclude us from striving for perfection, when time, circumstance or desire allow.

That's a pain. I thought I read somewhere that they had fixed that in the makefiles somehow. You do remember me saying that you would be best to use the same compiler as was used to build your version of Perl (^^ back up there somewhere)? Other than building your own version of perl first, which is a whole other kettle of fish, unless you can get your hands on a copy of MSC++ v6, you're a bit stymied. I've never attempted this with NET studio. You might try posting a top level post asking if anyone knows how to build modules with NET studio for use with AS perl. Someone may have done it.
