I originally posted this to win32-perl mailing list and was advised this
may be a better forum.
I have downloaded the Inline::C module for perl. I am able to use it
effectively with basic C code.
My problem arises when I try to use Inline w/ an application development
kit, especifically when I try to make Inline know about my header, lib and
dll files. The code below (minus the inline entries) works w/ ms vc++.
The LIBS entries are the application development kit lib and dll
entries,ivadminapi.lib and ivadminapi.dll. The include entry is the adk's header
files. When I try to execute the
code from the dos command line, I get this message :
"Can't modify constant item in scalar assignment at test_c1.pl line 11,
near ");"
Execution of test_c1.pl aborted due to compilation errors.
I assume this message is because Inline is not recognizing my lib,dll and
header files.
use Inline C => Config =>
LIBS => ['-Lc:\program files\microsoft visual
studio\vc98\lib -livadminapi.lib',
'-Lc:\program files\microsoft visual
studio\vc98\bin -livadminapi.dll'];
ivadmin_context ctx;
ivadmin_response rsp;
unsigned long status;
#include "c:\program files\tivoli\policy director\include\ivadminapi.h";
status = ivadmin_context_createdefault("logonid", "password", &ctx, &rsp);
printf("%u\n",status);
__END__
__C__
print status;
Thanks in advance,
Richard Ferry
