I'm using Strawberry Perl 5.10.0.6 and the precompiled library at http://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL-devel-1.2.13-mingw32.tar.gz - I extracted it's bin, lib, and include directories into c:\strawberry\c{include, lib, bin}.
Here are the results from trying again on 2003_x86.msopensource.net: H:\Desktop\kthakore-SDL_perl-acbf8053a89d78a3c601fb0b05fc91461c204294>perl Build .PL 'sdl-config' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. 'sdl-config' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. SDL doesn't appear to be installed. Please check that sdl-config is in your path and try again. The message must not have sunk in the first time: sdl-config is a ***shell script***. It will not work, even if it IS in the path. You can't rely on it working on Win32. (Your setenv.bat is also assuming that there is a Microsoft Visual C++ compilation environment available. That's not always the case. Strawberry uses a gcc environment.) I'll send you a patch in a little bit. --Curtis On Mon, 03 Aug 2009 15:30 -0400, "Kartik Thakore" <thakore.kar...@gmail.com> wrote: > yup this is a problem. Let me see what I can do.
