Re^2: Compiling with static perl510s.lib

Thanks a lot for your feedback.

Just to clarify, I'm embeding perl in my own C application, hence why I'm trying to link to perl510s.lib.

If the Win32 extension is not built into the static library, how hard would it be for someone like me link it staticlaly?

I'm embeding perl in my own C application, hence why I'm trying to link to perl510s.lib I don't have much experience with embedding but, normally, people just embed the dynamic perl. Is there a reason that's not a good option for you ? If the Win32 extension is not built into the static library, how hard would it be for someone like me link it staticlaly? Given that you've received no useful help on this forum, I think you'd be better off pursuing this on the p5p mailing list - where I, for one, would follow the thread with interest. (You may not even have to subscribe in order to post there ... can't remember). There should be someone there who understands exactly what's required. I can't even find documentation that explains (with any clarity) what we can rightly expect from perl-static.exe. All I know is that my understanding of the comments in the win32/Makefile doesn't match what I'm actually getting. Cheers, Rob	[reply]
