Re^2: Compiling Perl Modules on Windows

A viable alternative is to install:
1. MinGW from http://www.mingw.org/download.shtml

I think the MinGW folk recommend going instead to sourceforge and downloading then running that installer. There have been reports of problems with the installers on the MinGW page - and I gather that mingw.org site is no longer being actively maintained. The version of the installer on sourceforge is 5.0.3, whereas the latest available version on the mingw.org website is 5.0.2.

I'm not entirely sure that I'm correct on all points ... but I think that's the current state of play.

Cheers,
Rob

You may be right, it'll be a year I did this install. Thanks for adding a sourceforge link.	[reply]
