Re: setting up MQ environment on windows for Perl
Dan, I have successfully done this on Windows NT and 2000 using VC++ and later Visual Studio.NET's C compiler. Change make to nmake and it should work. Assuming you have the same version of Perl across several Windows machines, once you build the module you can install it on other servers/workstations just by copying the files over. The files to copy would be: perl install/site/lib/MQSeries.pm perl install/site/lib/MQClient (Folder contents) perl install/site/lib/MQSeries (Folder contents) perl install/site/lib/MQServer (Folder contents) Plus the ones everyone forgets... perl install/site/lib/auto/MQSeries (Folder contents) perl install/site/lib/auto/MQServer (Folder contents) The build is a series of steps that configure the module (perl Makefile.pl); extract, compile and install the module in a staging directory (nmake); test the success of the build (nmake test); and finally, install the module where Perl will find it at run-time (nmake install). The reason all this is necessary is that there are hundreds of possible combinations of compatible Perl versions and compatible MQSeries libraries. The nmake step builds the glue files that connect your version of Perl to your installed version of MQ by compiling the C header files (cmqc.h, etc.). The compiler is required because you are crossing over from Perl to native C calls. Since building the module on Windows is so pesky, we invested in the Active State's Perl Dev Kit. This lets us compile our scripts into stand-alone programs that can be distributed to servers without having to install Perl, build the module, etc. -- T.Rob -Original Message- From: Daniel Graper [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 05, 2003 12:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: setting up MQ environment on windows for Perl T.Rob: Please forgive my 'swiss cheese' knowledge of this.
