Re^3: Cross-Compile Perl Modules for Win x64

That is undoubtedly true Corion ... and many more ++ to the authors & maintainers of said module.

My point was that my, mostly infuriating, experience(s) attempting to build perl modules using M$ under Windoze suggest that...

both offer a path of far less resistance, tho' self-evidently, the latter is far more constraining - almost masochistically so;-)

A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))

Bloodnok, Cheers for the info... I've had a look at Strawberry Perl, and it looks like it could do the job... however it looks like the default setup is 32bit - is there a 64bit version available??? Cheers Gavin	[reply]

See Perl::Dist::Strawberry, and make sure to get mingw64 version, and build your own.	[reply]

See Perl::Dist::Strawberry, and make sure to get mingw64 version, and build your own. Afaik, the perl source needs some (extensive ?) modifications before perl can be built using the mingw64 compiler. Cheers, Rob Update: Just to clarify - I'm thinking it's the makefile itself, rather than any of the actual perl source code, that needs modifying.	[reply]
