Announcing Alien::GSL 0.03_02
Hi Joel,
Sorry I've been a bit slow following up - somewhat sidetracked by the
completely boring and arduous task of having to clean up after a wind storm
demolished a number of trees near my house. It didn't damage any buildings
but, with summer coming on, one feels that one should at least make some
sort of token effort to make the place less susceptible to bushfire damage.
Anyway, with 0.03_02 I still got:
C:\sisyphusion\Alien-GSL-0.0302>perl Build.pl
Using build class My::Builder::Windows
Could not load My::Builder::Windows at Build.pl line 18.
So I tried:
C:\sisyphusion\Alien-GSL-0.0302>perl -Mlib="builder" -e "require
My::Builder::Windows;"
Can't locate File/chdir.pm in @INC (@INC contains: builder
C:/perl514_M/site/lib
C:/perl514_M/lib .) at builder/My/Builder.pm line 14.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at builder/My/Builder.pm line 14.
Compilation failed in require at C:/perl514_M/lib/parent.pm line 20.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at builder/My/Builder/Windows.pm line 4.
Compilation failed in require at -e line 1.
Obviously I also need File::chdir, so I installed that - and 'perl Build.pl'
then runs successfully.
But then 'perl Build' croaks because I have only version 0.38 of
Module::Build, but 0.39 is required.
There is no 0.39, but there's a devel release 0.39_01, so I installed it on
my 32-bit perl-5.14.
Then:

Given that there's already a dynamic gsl-1.15 library (libgsl-0.dll and
libgslcblas-0.dll) in my path, is that the expected outcome ?
You'll have to forgive my ignorance re "Alien::*" as I've very little
experience of it.
I think the last time I tried an Alien::* module might've been in relation
to SDL (and/or its dependencies) - and I got quite annoyed that it was going
to install a more recent version than was available via the latest sources I
could google ... still haven't got back to that little exercise.
Is there a way for me to test the functonality of Alien::GSL further on
Windows ? ... without, of course, clobbering the gsl libraries I already
have.
Cheers,
Rob
