From: newsgroups@lacademy.edu (News Groups) Subject: Problems Compiling Perl 5.005_02 on Win32 27 Aug 1998 07:01:53 -0700 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit To: gnu-win32@cygnus.com Cheers, I'm new to the list . . . and I've already got a problem. :-) I am attempting to get Perl 5.005_02 to compile on Cygnus beta 19. I was unsuccessful for quite a while until I copied the contents of the Cygnus/B19 directory to /gnuwin32. Now, apparently, the scripts are starting to find things in the right place, and are starting to be able to compile. Two things distress me: First, I see a lot of incompatible pointer type errors in regards to util.c. Is this normal? Second, make fails when it gets to making Data::Dumper. While ld'ing Dumper.base, I get an error message that tells me that ld cannot open -libperlexp, that there is no such file or directory. Any ideas as to why it can't find it? Thanks so much for your help, Kyle - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
