Re^3: Help - Install XML-LibXML on windows

Couldn't make it work with ActiveState's ppm/binaries, submitted a bug, never heard anything since. In any case I had to switch to Linux for other stuff. So far so good:-)

Cheers,
Harry

Just FYI - I also stopped using ActiveState PERL since I learned how powerful Strawberry PERL is. You can still use PPM and POD, now Windows can use CPAN and source too! Also: PERL makes Windows Executables! 1.) Install Strawberry PERL in Windows (Not ActiveState PERL) - Strawberry has a C/C++ Compiler and CPAN and PPM support! 2.) Open a command prompt and add PAR-Packer: (If you use a proxy server, set environment: HTTP_proxy http://YourProxy:8080) cpan install PAR::Packer 3.) Create a fully distributable Win32 binary EXE using pp and your current PERL scripts from the command line: pp -o hello.exe helloworld.pl 4.) Add PERL Tk via PPM command line to create Windows GUI programs ppm install Tk	[reply]
