Re^4: perldoc for InlineX

wapoor: [Some compilation Errors]

Ahh, "config" is the file which Inline dumps
into a subdir "_Inline" of the current script dir.

I t looks like there's sth. wrong on your machine
maybe inline doesn't like the path with spaces in it.

 Failed to autogenerate D:\perl utility programs\try InlineX\_Inline\config

Oterwise, I'd recommend upgrading (deinstalling, cleaning of the d:\perl\
program directory completely and reinstalling the actual build 822.
The 5.8.6 is fairly old!

Do you have VC++6 Service Pack 6 installed? Check your PATH if another
compiler whatsoever may come into the way (but your actual problem is,
as can be seen above, different).

much luck

As you suggested, I put nmake in the path. I also moved the code file to a folder with no spaces in the name. And here is perl's response (which I will try to format correctly -- sorry about the last note). C:\Temp\herehere>perl wma.txt *************** This module is deprecated. Please install the latest version of Inline +X::C2XS instead *************** 'nmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. A problem was encountered while attempting to compile and install your + Inline C code. The command that failed was: nmake > out.make 2>&1 The build directory was: C:\Temp\herehere\_Inline\build\wma_txt_8d90 To debug the problem, cd to the build directory, and inspect the outpu +t files. at wma.txt line 9 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at wma.txt line 26. C:\Temp\herehere [download] What should I look for in the output files? Other than that, I will gladly update the version of perl as you have suggested. Thanks.	[reply] [d/l]

'nmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I don't really know what the (above) reason is. Do you have nmake 1.5? 1.6? What happens if you enter `nmake -?` into a command prompt? (mine says: "... Version 6.00.9782.0") The intermediate files for the Inline build will be in C:\Temp\herehere\_Inline\build\wma_txt_8d90, especially the out.make will be of interest. (I'll join tommorrow again, now it's time to go to sleep, L.T. is 23:19) Regards mwa	[reply] [d/l]
