The -g option is for non-console mode. The -f option is for freestanding
mode.
you may also want to add the -c mode which deletes dlls extracted from your
exe to the temp directory after execution ends.

you mean the -f option?? I looked for a -g option because I'd never seen
that one. still haven't.

 I use it alot and it works very well.

http://jenda.mccann.cz/perl/GUIscripts.html should apply here as well:

haven't you tried it with
  editbin /subsystem:windows myapp.exe

this should work. the default perl linker flag is 
/subsystem:console that's why it shows the console window.

jan dubois had somewhere a tiny script exetype.pl which 
changes the PE header to the windows flag if you don't 
have msvc (editbin.exe). i think jenda has it on his site.

Yes I mean -g for gui, which removes the dos window.

if you download the latest version of PDK from Activestate, it has a -g
option.

Just type perlapp.pl at the command prompt and the list of options scroll up
the screen.

-g is towards the bottom.

It works well try it...

I use Perl2Exe(http://www.dynamicstate.com), works great for hiding the console
window, even when started from a dos box, it'll return control after
starting(when compiled with the -gui option)

The -g option is in PDK 1.2 (not in 1.1) that will allow you to make
GUI.exe's without a dos window)

Re: [perl-win32-gui] Make app to exe

2000-03-23 Thread Mike Kangas

For the PerlApp from ActiveState you get a version which will turn perl's into
exe's for free but the exe's will only run if the box they are running on has a
newer version of perl installed. You only have to pay if you want the exe to be a
freestanding exe. But the development kit also comes with some other stuff which i
haven't taken the time to look at yet.

One other thing. If you buy O'Reilly's Perl Resource Kit you will also get a
license for the Perl Development Kit.
