You could also install the MinGW module which is in ActiveStates
repository and which provides the needed compiler so you can build/install
modules using cpan.

Yes - more explicitly:

ppm install MinGW

I think that gives you both the MinGW port of the gcc compiler and dmake (which is the make utility you'll be using ... not gmake). If you find that dmake is not installed by running 'ppm install MinGW', then run:

ppm install dmake

Once MinGW and dmake have been 'ppm installed', nothing else needs to be configured - ActivePerl detects their presence and uses them automatically to build modules.

Cheers,
Rob
