Hi!
I'm trying to install the DBI-Module, but the C-compiler generates error
messages. I am quite a beginner in perl and I don't understand what's wrong.
Please could anybody help me?
Here is what I've done:
I am working on DEC OSF/1, with perl 5.004_04. The package I try to build is
DBI-1.201.
I created the Makefile by
perl Makefile.PL -LIB=~/createstats11/lib
Until here everything works fine.
After that I tried to make. Here's some of the output of it:
....
cc -c -std -D_INTRINSICS -I/usr/local/include -D__LANGUAGE_C__ -O4
-DVERSION=\"1.201\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.201\"
-I/usr/opt/PERL5004/lib/perl5/alpha-dec_osf/5.00404/CORE -DDBI_NO_THREADS DBI.c
cc: Error: DBI.xs, line 1611: Error parsing parameter list. Found "*" when

DBI.xs. (nolinkage)
register PERL_CONTEXT *ccstack = cxstack;
-------------^
....
I understand that there's something wrong with PERL_CONTEXT, but in fact I
don't understand what exactly it is and what I can do about it.
Can anybody help me?
