Here's a patch against the Apache-Dispatch Makefile.PL to allow it to build on Win32
Your patch does the trick for me, except that I had to rebuild mod_perl too.
The problem is that my installed mod_perl setup (Apache in C:\apache, Perl in C:\perl5) didn't contain the mod_perl.lib required. The MODPERL_LIB entry in Apache::MyConfig said C:/Temp/mod_perl-1.28/src/modules/win32/Release, which is, of course, where it was when I was building mod_perl.
I believe that mod_perl 2 now installs the mod_perl.lib somewhere to solve that kind of problem. Is there an option in the mod_perl 1 build process to thave that library installed, or could that be added to the next release?
That's a good suggestion - you're right that mod_perl 2 installs the mod_perl.lib under the Apache2/ tree, and it would make sense for mod_perl 1 to do the same, with Apache::MyConfig adjusted to reflect that. I'll look into putting together something to do that.
Does it? According to Apache::Build, it should be installed under the apache tree's lib:
sub modperl_libs_MSWin32 {
my $self = shift;
# mod_perl.lib will be installed into MP_AP_PREFIX/lib
# for use by 3rd party xs modules
"$self->{cwd}/src/modules/perl/$self->{MP_LIBNAME}.lib";
