Always dangerous to name something 'best'...so I'll just give a recommendation based on what I use. Doesn't necessarily mean the other alternatives won't work - I just have no experience with anything else. So: try the PDK (Perl Dev Kit) from ActiveState. >q. 2. also this .exe the client may run on windows/unix. will the creation >of an .exe on windows affect its performance on unix?? You misunderstand the issue. A windows .exe will never run on Unix. Instead, the PDK has multiple implementations for various Windows and Unix flavors, thus enabling you to build executables for each platform (so you need access to platform P to build an executable for it - no 'cross compiling').
