Hello,

a client of mine wants a Perl script for system surveillance be programmed, the target operating systems ranging from Windows 2012 to 2019. But he wants to avoid third party installations, i e., would not allow the installation of the Perl interpreter under a privileged account.

Hence, I have the task to devise a solution which is not dependent on a "normally" installed Perl interpreter and which (ideally) does not require individual development environments for each operating system (Windows 2012, Windows 2016,...).

So, is this possible w/o relying on modules like App-Staticperl? Can one compile a Perl script on ONE Windows version which include all libraries statically and which can be deployed on all three target versions?

And, IF I am forced to deploy systems like App-Staticperl, are they passably uncomplicated to use?.

I would like to avoid introducing unnecessary trouble into a project which itself is quite ambitious already.

Any thoughts?
