Hi Rob,

Thanks so much. For my ActiverPerl 5.16, since I installed it from AP516
source code using VC++6, I
guess may be the pre-build pdl ppm is not a choice in my case. So how to
install PDL with pthread manually?
I found a pthread-win32 on http://sourceware.org/pthreads-win32/ What's the
correct way to setup all these
pieces. I mean, whether shall I reinstall active perl first, or just tweak
with perldl.conf to enable pthread features?
