Re: PAR 0.87 & wxgui - driving me nuts

[Mike Schroeder]

Not sure if there is an easier way, but this is my win32 build script -- 
it seemed to need all of these DLL's explicitly specified:

pp --gui -l \Perl\site\lib\auto\Wx\wxbase252u_vc_custom.dll -l 
\Perl\site\lib\auto\Wx\wxbase252u_net_vc_custom.dll -l 
\Perl\site\lib\auto\Wx\wxbase252u_xml_vc_custom.dll -l 
\Perl\site\lib\auto\Wx\wxmsw252u_adv_vc_custom.dll -l 
\Perl\site\lib\auto\Wx\wxmsw252u_core_vc_custom.dll -l 
\Perl\site\lib\auto\Wx\wxmsw252u_html_vc_custom.dll
-M "Wx::DocView" -N CompanyName="DonorWare 
LLC";LegalTrademarks="DonorWare";ProductVersion="1.49";FileVersion="1.49";ProductName="dwlaunch";Comments="Production 
Version" --icon icons\dw.ico -o bin\dwlaunch.exe dwlaunch.pl

And this is at the top of the script being pp'd:
# Pre-Load all the Wx modules that need dll/so support
use Wx::Calendar;
use Wx::DateTime;
eval("use Wx::DocView;") if $^O eq "MSWin32";
# and whatever else you need based on what tags were specified
We have started trying out the eval method (notice the corresponding -M 
in the build script) to avoid some cross-platform issues... (wxMac does 
*not* like Wx::DocView).

Further to this.  I find that everything works fine if I generate an 
exe directly (and use "-l wxmsw242.dll").  However, if I generate a 
par file (-p) then lots of the dependencies don't seem to get 
included, not even if I explicitly list them with -M or put them right 
at the top of the script in USE statements...

Any ideas?
