Yesterday I did a MSVC attempt with a mingw perl, which I described in cygwin070patches/README_win23.pod => If you want to use MSVC with a mingw-gcc perl you can use C<--cc=cl --link=link>. Just F<ar> in F<config_lib.pasm> has to be changed to F<lib> and C<LIBPARROT = $(LIBPARROT_STATIC)> in F<Makefile>. Today I tested mingw fully and found only minor issues in some languages not finding @build_dir@/libparrot.dll (well, perl6 is also involved :) and I hope to patch it away soon. MSVC with ActivePerl will be the next attempt today or tomorrow. -- Reini Urban http://phpwiki.org/ http://murbreak.at/
