I had tried to compile vim with perl support under windows environment using latest MinGW. I had encountered an error "Make_ming.mak:115: *** Recursive variable `XSUBPP' references itself (eventually). Stop." which prevent to vim to compile with perl. It may be obvious to those familiar with GNU make, but not me. Searching the error message in google allowed me to fix the problem and get vim compiled with perl support. Here is my fix for those like me without much knowledge with GNU make.
Here someone familiar with the source code merging please help me to include this in the source control. thanks original code in Make_ming.mak (line 115) XSUBPP=perl $(XSUBPP) need to fix with this XSUBPP:=perl $(XSUBPP) thanks a lot! -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
