Re: Compile Perl To Executable

Al little update, i'm try to use:

ActivePerl 5.12.4 Build 1205
Perl2Exe V10.40B for Windows 32-bit
[download]

Load all module, test it on cmd and the file .pl work, so try to convert in Perl2Exe ( just for see if work with another software ), conversion complete. I'm opening the exe and i have this error:

This exe file was created with the evaluation version of Perl2Exe.

Don't find a module Any::Moose. So i'll add at the end of the file:

#perl2exe_include "C:\Perl\site\lib\Any\Moose.pm";

Nothing to do, same error. Try Cava Packager, "Success _ Scan No error _ Build Complete" and many error on .exe:

I'm wait for cavac or someone to test the conversion and write a little tutorial for me. I need the .exe for deploy, i can't install on every machine Perl. Thanks for support

"I'm wait for cavac or someone to test the conversion and write a little tutorial for me. I need the .exe for deploy, i can't install on every machine Perl. Thanks for support" While I wont write a tutorial for you, I can confirm I created an exe using pp with Strawberry Perl running on Windows XP, it executes without any errors. I'd suggest you read and understand the pp documentation, especially the 'example' section at the start.	[reply]

Thanks marto, Yesterday i have try to use pp without success: `Can't call method "load_all_extensions" on an undefined value at C:/Pe +rl/site/lib/Module/Install.pm line 206. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\Documents and Settings\Windows + Xp\Desktop\PAR-1.002\Makefile.PL line 4.` [download] I need to follow a tutorial/guide for this, we'll see if finally i resolve this issue. Thanks again	[reply] [d/l]
Re^4: Compile Perl To Executable by marto (Cardinal) on Jan 09, 2012 at 15:46 UTC
Our conversation in the CB isn't a productive use of either of our time. First ensure you know which Perl you're running, you claim to have tired both Strawberry and ActiveState: `perl -V` IIRC ActiveState perl installs to c:\perl by default. Strawberry to c:\strawberry, so you've either changed this during installation, or the error above is coming from ActiveState perl rather than Strawberry (which you claimed was the only Perl you had at the time). Since you're new to all this, my advice is to run only one Perl. I suggest you stick to Strawberry perl. Install modules using the `cpan` command, for example from the Windows command prompt: `cpan pp` This will install pp and all the other modules it needs. When people are telling you exactly what to type into the command prompt, don't report errors which result from running a different command. This is a waste of time for everyone concerned and only confuses the issue. Once you have installed pp (and the modules this script you've found online requires) you can create a executable by running the following: `pp -x scriptname.pl` This will generate a.exe as an output (I've confirmed this works, Strawberry Perl, Windows XP). Please read and understand the pp documentation regarding general use and options available.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
