in thread Testing JPEGs for validity (windows)

Image::JpegCheck does what is says: checks if it's a JPEG, no necessarily a valid one.

I've no clue on how to compile on widows 7 x64. I tried following some guides, made some progress, but could not make it compile :(

Any other ideas?

      I could try that, but I'd rather learn how to do it properly.

        Really? Why are you asking for other ideas, and why aren't you reading the README/INSTALL.... files? Perl::Dist::Strawberry

        Not to put too fine a point on it, but some will say that installing Strawberry Perl is the proper way to do it.

        But, I have Strawberry Perl 5.12 installed and this module errors out during install, so ... no prize.
