    I wonder if ExtUtils::MakeMaker is the culprit. I'm using version 6.31 - might be worth your while checking that you also have 6.31, and updating if you have an older version. (I think I might have upgraded EU::MM at some stage.)

    In the meantime I'll doublecheck that it does work with version 4.7 of dmake (and update this post as soon as I find out for sure).

    Cheers,
    Rob
    Update: Yep - definitely building fine for me on AS build 817 using dmake-4.7.

      Hi Rob,
      iam using strawberry-perl with dmake and mingw.
      still iam unable install the Win32::GUI(like Win32::GUI::AxWindow can only be built using MSVC, not 'gcc') 
      

C:\Win32-GUI-1.04>perl Makefile.PL
Argument "6.30_01" isn't numeric in subroutine entry at Makefile.PL li
+ne 9.


BUILDENV=mingw  Used build environment is: MSWin32 and MinGW


NOTE: Makefile.PL will add the instruction to use the Resource Compile
+r to
your Makefile; if you don't want to compile resources with your extens
+ion,
call this script with this additional argument:

    perl Makefile.PL USERESOURCE=0

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good

Win32::GUI::AxWindow can only be built using MSVC, not 'gcc',
as it depends on the Microsoft Active Template Library (ATL).
Win32::GUI::AxWindow will be skipped during the current build process.

At this time Win32::GUI::DIBitmap cannot be build using gcc.
Win32::GUI::DIBitmap will be skipped during the current build process.

Writing Makefile for Win32::GUI::DropFiles

Win32::GUI::Grid can only be built using MSVC, not 'gcc',
as it requires the MFC framework.
Win32::GUI::Grid will be skipped during the current build process.

        I guess you have two options:
        1) Install Win32-GUI using ppm;
        2) Build it with ActivePerl using an MSVC compiler.

        Modules built using ActivePerl will generally work fine on Strawberry Perl and vice-versa - no matter which compiler was actually used to build the module. (There are exceptions.)

        Cheers,
        Rob
