1. recompile it with mingw 2. use a eclipse-based java implementation 3. install cygwin for the ride everyone of these seems a bit too much trouble for just checking out catalyst sources. I propose Mercurial and my argument is that if it's good enough for to be selected as a candidate for the Mozilla repository (http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/preed/2007/04/version_control_system_shootou_1.html), it could work for Catalyst too. _______________________________________________ List: Catalyst@lists.rawmode.org Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.rawmode.org/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
