Tony, Your main problem is being on a Win9X platform as opposed to WinNT/2000.
As you mention, you will probably get errors building most Perl modules under Win9x. The cmd.exe shell on Win9x is really crappy and doesn't support all the "standard" (io redirection, error codes, etc... ) shell features. ExtUtils::MakeMaker (One of the modules that gets used when you type perl Makefile.pl) has some support for Win95 but I think it is incomplete. Your best bet is to find a WinTN/2000, or to try it under cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/) Good luck, Patrick ----- Original Message ----- From: "tony" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 16, 2002 7:41 AM Subject: Re: call my own DLL from Perl Inline C.... > Hi this is who just sent a mail of this subject... > > As I thought, my Inline was old. > I got newer Inline(0.43) module which is made on July/2001. > > but When I tried to install, I got error. > I did same as README of Inline. > (of course, I've already removed old Inline modules) > > first, > perl Makefile.PL <-- This worked. > second, > nmake <-- ERROR !! > > Since my OS is win98, I gotta do nmake instead of make, right ? > first error was > @[ > ... > ... > ] > > I removed [ and ] characters, and tried again. > then I got next error "too many parameters -NMAKE" > > damn. nmake even doesn't return the line number where error was occured. > > give up... > > Please anyone teach me how to install Inline(::C) module ? > > Whatever I do with perl modules, I always get ERROR, ERROR, ERROR, > ERROR...DAMN !!! > The time I configure perl or perl modules is MUCH longer than the time > I'm coding....sad. > > > ps) > my OS is win98 > Compiler is VC++6 > > > >
