Thanks for your help, Mark. Unfortunately, I couldn't get wxWidgets to
compile with the MinGW32 kit, there seemed to be a lot of broken links
to include files.
I'm now trying with wxPack and, if you like, I'll let you know how that
proceeds.
I'm putting together an internal Wiki page on setting up for wxPerl
development on Windows. If you could advise me on a suitable location to
post it to, I'd be happy to make it available to the community, once
I've got a bulletproof method worked out.
Best regards
Harvey

Either
1)
use ActivePerl 822 - no install of ExtUtils::FakeConfig needed - this is the
easiest way.
or
2)
use NMAKE to install ExtUtils::FakeConfig in earlier ActivePerl versions.
Google for NMAKE15.exe - the Microsoft download page will be one of the first
results.
dmake fails to build ExtUtils::FakeConfig.
or
3)
take a look at the source for implib_mingw and call it yourself directly to
create libperl58.a

Does anyone have a fix / workaround? The only mention I can find of this
problem is a reference for Vanilla Perl, would it be worth trying to
build this as an alternative to ActivePerl?
If not, what would be your recommendation for an alternative to
ActivePerl on Windows?
