I'm trying to install DateTime-0.1901 for ActivePerl under Microsoft Windows
XP. I don't have a C compiler (but I don't need one, right?). I successfully
installed DateTime-TimeZone-0.2506 and DateTime-Locale-0.07. Basically,
*none* of the DateTime.pm tests are succeeding.
C:\DateTime\DateTime-0.1901>perl Makefile.PL

'cl' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe' : return code '0x1'
Stop.
I cannot determine if you have a C compiler
so I will install a perl-only implementation
You can force installation of the XS version with
perl Makefile.PL --xs

I installed (nmake install) anyway and this is what I get when I try to use
DateTime:
C:\DateTime\DateTime-0.1901>perl -MDateTime -e 1
Can't locate loadable object for module DateTime in @INC (@INC contains:
C:/Perl/lib C:/Perl/site/lib .) at C:/Perl/lib/XSLoader.pm line 43
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/site/lib/DateTime.pm line 43.
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.
C:\DateTime\DateTime-0.1901>
I feel like I'm so close! I'm frustrated, though. Could *this* possibly be
the problem?
Warning: prerequisite Pod::Man 1.14 not found.
Actually, I do have Pod::Man installed!
# Pod::Man -- Convert POD data to formatted *roff input.
# $Id: Man.pm,v 1.34 2002/07/15 05:46:00 eagle Exp $
Any ideas?
