thanks a lot mark,
i tried this also 2 days ago
for one mysterious reason it do work when you first install Wx and the
the ET (Alien).
if you do the other way a one of the cava dll do error sorry i would
like to give you the err msg
tut it was german and a msg so i couldnt cut n paste. i suggest also
that wx should throw
out some .manifest files into the right dir to enable nice apps i will
adam also suggest maybe they
will included by default into strawberry
my apologies for inconvenience i shoul say from the start that i run
winxp and Acitve perl 5.8.8
(now S perl 5.10 :) )
best

Herbert,
With the latest Strawberry Perl released earlier this month, both PPM
and PAR::Dist come pre-installed.
So if you wanted the quickest way to install Wx -
ppm install http://www.wxperl.co.uk/repository/Alien-wxWidgets.ppd
ppm install http://www.wxperl.co.uk/repository/Wx.ppd
If you wanted to build Wx yourself, then instead do
ppm install http://www.wxperl.co.uk/repository/Alien-wxWidgets-dev.ppd
then build Wx as normal.
If you have Windows 2000, then you need to ensure that the gdiplus.dll
is installed alongside the wxWidgets dlls in Alien. The PPMs should do
this - but I must admit I haven't tested on Strawberry.
If gdiplus.dll does not appear alongside the wxWidgets DLLs, then in
can be found in the subdirectory
C:\strawberry\perl\site\lib\Alien\wxWidgets\msw_2_8_7_uni_mslu_gcc_3_4\os
where it is called gdiplus.dl_
just copy to
C:\strawberry\perl\site\lib\Alien\wxWidgets\msw_2_8_7_uni_mslu_gcc_3_4\lib
and rename to gdiplus.dll
Building or installing Wx on Strawberry this way definitely works.
Trying to build wxWidgets from scratch is slightly more difficult as
you need the Microsoft Platform SDK if you want to include
wxGraphicsPath etc.
Regards
Mark

yes these results i get
C:\strawberry>perl -MConfig -e"print $Config{cc};"
gcc
C:\strawberry>perl -MConfig -e"print $Config{ccname};"
gcc
and : Unknown shell command 'conf'. Type ? for help.
when i do : cpan> conf o makepl_arg ''
and building from sources seemes to fail but that can be my fault
since i never done it in this fashion.
i tried also last night cava, i wanted to present it on my wxperl
workshop, but since it runs
only on win its out of scope for most of my listeners.
but nevertheless thanks mark, its good to hear that somone cares
