Easiest way would be to use the x32 build of ActivePerl 5.10.1 on your x64 box
(as Chris has suggested). Then you can simply:
ppm install http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/PPMPackages/10xx/OpenGL.ppd
and
ppm install http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/PPMPackages/10xx/PDL.ppd
Don't install ActivePerl 5.12.0 unless you are wanting to build the packages
yourself, as many ppm packages for 5.12.0 have not yet been built.
If you want to use x64 ActivePerl, you'll probably have to build OpenGL and PDL
yourself. (You could try 'ppm install OpenGL' and 'ppm install PDL' and see
what happens .... you might get lucky.)
To build them yourself, grab the freely available "Microsoft SDK for Windows
Server 2003 R2" compiler or the freely available mingw64 compiler. I have used
both of those compilers to build x64 OpenGL-0.62 and x64 PDL. To build x64 PDL
using the mingw64 compiler with ActivePerl, there's a couple of patches that
need to be applied to ActivePerl (which I could send you if you want).
Tell us which of those options you want to use - and also provide some details
of the difficulty you're having with that option - and I'm sure we'll be able
to help out.
Cheers,
Rob
