Re^3: Inline:CPP module won't install

You're using gcc-3.4.5, so there should be no need to install the STD_IOSTREAM patch. One thing I would recommend is that you use 'dmake' (available from CPAN or, I think, as 'ppm install dmake'). That will at least remove that crappy old version of nmake you're using from the mix of things that could cause problems, though I doubt it's the problem here.

With 'dmake' installed, check that perl -V:make reports 'dmake'. (You may need to remove 'nmake.exe' from your path for that to happen.)

Then, in a freshly unpacked Inline-CPP-0.25 source folder, run 'perl Makefile.PL', accepting the prompts to use 'g++' and '-lstdc++'. Then run 'dmake test' and it should work ok.

It's not a good idea to have mingw in the msys tree .... I think that can cause problems with msys, though it shouldn't be a problem here. The simplest way to get both 'dmake' and 'mingw' for ActivePerl is to run 'ppm install MinGW' - doesn't require any path alterations or other fiddling about.

Let us know what, if any, errors arise - also the version of Parse::RecDescent that you installed.

Cheers,
Rob

Maybe you should mention that to the MinGW folks, because thats how they have it arranged by default. If that's so then I must be mistaken. Perhaps problems arise iff MinGW gets installed into some other part(s) of the msys tree, but the msys top level folder is ok. I keep 'em separate ... so it's something I don't have to even think about :-) Cheers, Rob	[reply]
