Perl Programming Language :: Building DBD::Pg on Windows?


	Building DBD::Pg on Windows? Has anyone done this (recently?) The readme.win32 supplied with this download seems to not match the actual code trees. In particular running nmake as instructed leads to an error involving a relative file path that makes it clear that the folder structure doesn't match what the makefile expects. I'd really like to use DBD on Windows XP as without it Perl isn't of much use to our project; however I'm stumped out fo the gate trying to build this code. Any help (or pointers to help) would be greatly appreciated.

If you're using an ActiveState build of perl 5.8, and you run (while connected to the internet): ppm install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/DBD-Pg.ppd that should give you version 1.45 of DBD::Pg. Admittedly, that's not the latest version - and if it doesn't solve your problem, then post again (with the output you got when you tried to build from source).
