All,

MinGW works great,,,! After installing PAR and MinGW with ppm, I used 'cpan install pp', and the install was fully automated..!!

For some reason, ppm can't find pp or par-packer or any case sensitive derivation thereof.. but cpan works :-)

Many thanks,

Thomas

I am using nmake1.5, and I think I would like to use a different compiler;

please make a suggestions..




I think nmake-1.5 is the old and crappy version of nmake that's readily
available as a separate download on the internet - it may be the cause of your problem.

Assuming you're using a version of Visual Studio compiler, you'd be
better off using the version of nmake that ships with it.



Which compiler are you using at the moment ? ('nmake' is a make utility,
not a compiler.)



With ActivePerl, imho, if you don't have Visual Studio 6.0, you're best
to be using MinGW and dmake - though you'll possibly get good enough mileage out of the later versions of Visual Studio.



Cheers,

Rob
