What is POW? Parrot on Windows? Who does maintain it?


Possily he means http://www.jwcs.net/developers/perl/pow/ but that seems to have precompiled for windows parrot binaries with no source.

The website mentions Jonathan Worthington as the maintainer.

'fraid that'd be me.  From the Parrot On Win32 documentation:-

"This distribution contains the Parrot executables that result from compiling the source under Windows, to save you having to compile it yourself. Documentation, examples, tests, compilers and interpreters for a number of languages at various stages of completion and a few other assorted odds and ends are also included."

Which (obviously not clearly enough ;-) implies that the source isn't included. This is like getting ActiveState Perl; you're getting something ready to run, not something you have to compile. To get something to compile, look to the Parrot site (http://www.parrotcode.org/).

Hope this helps,

Jonathan


So this is what I get:
--
[x] This application has failed to start because MSVCRTD.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

Ok. Just downloaded it at -

http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcrtd


placed it in the MSVC \bin directory and typed "perl t\harness"

At the end this is what I got:

Sound right?

Thanks Johnathan.

I get frustrated and side tracked really easy when I have no idea what I'm doing. My fault.
