PerlSvc works fine with POE. I have several apps that use it.
Not sure about the cross compiling. At work we have both Win32 and
Linux application, but we build natively on each platform.

Hi Andreas,
I was trying to find a solution how to run POE applications
as a Windows
service. I've found two solutions so far, but I am not quite
satisfied
with them.
If you're using Activestate perl (from your mention of ppms) then I
would suggest having a look at the perl dev kit, particularly the
perlsvc component.
I have no idea how well it interacts with POE but I've used it
successfully on a number of other non-POE projects in the past.
PerlApp is also a handy component for deploying standalone apps. I
believe the latest versions also support cross-"compiling" exes from
linux hosts as well. We're a linux shop so that is attractive to us but
its probably not useful for the majority :-)
Cheers,
Andrew
