Hello List,
I recently took over maintenance of Crypt-SSLeay. Today I downloaded
Strawberry Perl to see whether it could build the module or not. Turns
out there are a couple of problems, and I need some advice.
Thanks for taking this on. My compiler-fu is weak, but I'll answer
what I can. (Scary that I'm the packager, isn't it!)
I assume I want MinGW. In the Makefile.PL, what is the orthodox way to
determine whether I'm running under Strawberry Perl from within a Perl
script (e.g. Makefile.PL)? I had a look through config_sh, but nothing
leaps out at me. The idea to be that under SP, I'll look for libraries
in c:\openssl\lib\mingw.
I think you want to use Config and check $Config{cc}. For
Vanilla/Strawberry and other MinGW builds, that should be "gcc".
Mainly because it has appears to attempt to link against the AS Perl
that is also installed on the machine. And in any event, I don't see the
ssleay32.a library referenced in the build of libraries.
What order are they in $ENV{PATH}?
Regards,
David
