I have checked that (even before writing the report and now again) and the path seems to be ok, there is no error before that. If I change the path, I get the error, that EXTERN.h is not found. I set the path to C:\Perl as in this example of the make file: # Example: To build the non-debug, GUI version with Perl interface: # nmake -f Make_mvc.mak GUI=yes PERL=C:\Perl To be precise, I set the following: set PERL=C:\Perl set DYNAMIC_PERL=yes set PERL_VER=58 In the make file I can see, that this should really be the correct path. All paths, which are constructed there, do exist with this setting. I made a full install of ActivePerl, thus, if the distribution of ActivePerl contains everything, there should not miss anything. Best wishes, Georg
I'm using Cygwin, so everything's different for my compile. However, when I first tried compiling, and it wasn't finding various include directories I was getting the same errors as you. It might be that any failure of the .xs step will cause it to error out this way. I've attached a if_perl.c that compiled for me. You might check for differences. However, your errors are starting with __attribut.... This is defined in perl's config.h, which is in perl5/5.8/cygwin/CORE for me. It will be different for you, of course. I think you're likely going to have to fiddle around with adding more -I/path_to_ lines, since it's possible that the Make file isn't using the $PERL variable to the full extent necessary.
