in reply to Does an exe generated by App-Packer includes perl58.dll?

As far as I am aware, correct me if I'm wrong, App::Packer has evolved into the module PAR (see my review linked). Certainly, the PAR distribution injects modules into the App::Packer namespace.

Answering your question for PAR and Windows, the answer is definitely no - a PAR executable contains everything you need - no external perl .dll is required.

So oh Lord, won’t you burn me a Knoppix CD ?
