It should pretty much take care of itself.
1) Install dmake into a location in your path:
http://search.cpan.org/dist/dmake/ (Check the Readme.)
2) Install MinGW, and add MinGW/bin to your path:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/MinGW-3.1.0-1.exe?download
3) Install ExtUtils::FakeConfig from CPAN according to the instructions in
the Readme.
4) Install Inline-0.44 from CPAN by running:
perl -MConfig_m Makefile.PL (Inline should report that it has found
gcc.exe. Accept the prompt to install Inline::C.)
dmake test
dmake install
I think that when it comes to running your inline scripts, they should work
ok if you simply run them as normal perl scripts:
perl script.pl
You might have to invoke the '-MConfig_m' option initially (when the C code
gets compiled) ...... I don't *think* you will, but I'm not entirely sure
about that. Unfortunately I'm not really set up to test this out
conclusively.
Report back if there are any test failures or other problems.
Cheers,
Rob
