How to resolve issue "Can't load module Fcntl, dynamic loading not available in this perl" in perl 5.16 on HP-UX during building XML parser module

sridhar84 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Monks, Iam trying to build XML Parser module using perl 5.16 version on HP-UX but i can see some issues and not able to proceed further

  ../../miniperl -I../../lib Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=perl INSTALLMAN1D
+IR=none INSTALLMAN3DIR=none PERL_CORE=1 LIBPERL_A=libovperl.so 2>&1 |
+ tee log
Can't load module Fcntl, dynamic loading not available in this perl.
  (You may need to build a new perl executable which either supports
  dynamic loading or has the Fcntl module statically linked into it.)

How did you get there ( why are you using miniperl??	[reply]

Thanks for quick attention. I am building perl 5.16 from source and using perl 5.16 interpreter building all perl modules from source. For XML parser module i am getting this error.. other modules are building fine.	[reply]

But `miniperl` is substantially different from `perl`. If you are building Perl from source, enable dynamic loading (this is the default), and use `perl`, not `miniperl`. `miniperl` never has dynamic loading. It's one of the things that makes `miniperl` "`mini`".	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I already have a working perl-5.16.0 depot available for HP-UX. Look here and here. I see you want a 32bit perl. Why? Most targets - like Oracle - on 11.23/IPF are 64bits. Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn	[reply]

From what source (libovperl.so/XML::Parser aren't standard)? Are you building a dynamic perl ( is usedl true)? What is your configure invocation?	[reply]
