Does the link that Jonathan supplied you work? If not, please let me know. Did you install MinGW to compile ARSperl or did you install it for another reason? In my experience, you can compile ARSperl with any recent Microsoft Visual Studio version plus the Microsoft Platform API. The only thing I discovered is that in order to run it on any Windows PC (with or without Visual Studio installed) you should compile it with Visual Studio 6, which is the same version that ActiveState used to compile perl. Of course, this only holds true if you use ActiveState perl on Windows. This is the reason I created the binary package. > Also, we need version 1.91 of arsperl, not 1.90, since there was a nasty bug > fixed with ars_APIVersion(). The only issue with ars_APIVersion fixed was that I changed it to use AR_CURRENT_API_VERSION rather than AR_EXPORT_VERSION so the version level that comes now matches the Minimum-Api-Version setting in ar.conf. This was a bug, formally, but you can run ARSperl scripts without ANY issues; ars_APIVersion is a call that your script most probably does not even use. And if you want to patch 1.90 yourself, that's pretty straight forward: * Open the file ARS.xs * Look for the text 'ars_APIVersion' * Change RETVAL = AR_EXPORT_VERSION to RETVAL = AR_CURRENT_API_VERSION Please let me know if you succeeded, and if you ended up compiling your own or using the pre-compiled package.
