These comments are directed to users browsing this mailing list archive wishing to find more information about using Embperl on Windows.
The failure reported here is due to a lack of a C compiler on the tester's machine, which Embperl needs. Discussions have taken place on this list about whether or not a FAIL grade should be given in cases where a C compiler is not available but needed; this reporting policy may change in the future. If you are interested in using Embperl on Windows, see http://perl.apache.org/embperl/pod/INSTALL.htm for details on both building the package from the sources and also obtaining binary ppm packages for specific configurations. -- best regards, randy kobes
