After updating the install webpage for SciPDL I was looking at updates to the instructions for other operating systems. Starting with Windows. I'm going to include the not-so-new development that Strawberry Perl has a PDL-specific edition. ActivePerl is another matter. According to https://code.activestate.com/ppm/PDL/, recent versions of PDL have not been built, or have not built successfully for Windows. Does anybody have any familiarity with the reasons why? Our current webpage says to use the sisyphusion.tk repos—that's fine and all, but why is that even necessary?
I'm not familiar with the ActiveState way of doing things: could I (or, preferably, somebody else with Perl on Windows experience) download the Community Edition onto a Windows machine and try to diagnose problems, or is all the compiling etc done on ActiveState's black box servers and the ppm just downloads the results of the build to accomplish the install? thanks, Derek _______________________________________________ pdl-devel mailing list pdl-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pdl-devel
