Hi Rob

Thanks for that, I hadn't noticed that last set of errors were against static.exe instead of par.exe

Which means we are making some progress !! :)

So I did the workaround for static.exe "C:\Perl\site\bin\g++.exe static.o -L"C:\Perl\lib\CORE" C:\Perl\lib\CORE\perl510.lib -o static.exe"

Then I did dmake test, which resulted in the below. It is getting a lot further, now that I have built par.exe and static.exe the longhand way.

Here is what version of Makemaker I have

C:\mybuild\PAR-Packer-1.002>perl -MExtUtils::MakeMaker -e "print $ExtU +tils::Make Maker::VERSION Set up gcc environment - 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3) 6.55_02

Do you know what I can try now?

Thank you

Richard
