So if one was in Xlib then ../pTk/tkIntXlibDecls.h should work. It found tkPort.h which is in same place! But CygWin port has been much hacked about so I suspect that the -I flags that get passed are a mess. Can you give me more context of the fail i.e. copy/paste the Make output back to the command that is compiling the file?

I built Tk via the strawberry perl distribution today. I also had the "missing file". The file was not missing, but rather there appears to be a relative path in Xlib.h at line 1206 #include "../pTk/tkIntXlibDecls.h" but xlib.h is at C:\Tk-804.027\pTk\mTk\xlib\X11 and there is not pTk dir up one directory. if you create a pTk dir at C:\Tk-804.027\pTk\mTk\xlib\pTk and put tkIntXlibDecls.h and lang.h there the build will complete just fine. Here is the GCC line gcc -c -I.. -I../pTk/mTk/xlib -s -O2 -DWIN32 -DHAVE_DES_FCRYPT -DPERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT -DPERL_IMPLICIT_SYS -fno-strict-aliasing -DPERL_MSV CRT_READFIX -s -O2 -DVERSION=\"804.027\" -DXS_VERSION=\"804.027\" "-IC:\bootstrap-perl\perl\lib\CORE" -Wall -Wno-implicit- int -Wno-comment -Wno-unused -D__USE_FIXED_PROTOTYPES__ Xlib.c In file included from ../pTk/tkWinPort.h:19, from ../pTk/tkPort.h:28, from Xlib.xs:7: ../pTk/mTk/xlib/X11/Xlib.h:1206:35: ../pTk/tkIntXlibDecls.h: No such file or directory Xlib.xs:13: error: syntax error before '*' token Xlib.xs:13: warning: data definition has no type or storage class Xlib.c: In function `boot_Tk__Xlib': Xlib.c:1028: warning: unknown conversion type character `_' in format Xlib.c:1028: warning: too many arguments for format Xlib.xs:378: error: `TkintxlibdeclsVtab' undeclared (first use in this function) Xlib.xs:378: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once Xlib.xs:378: error: for each function it appears in.)

Hi, I too have experienced this problem on a recent download of strawberry perl. The fix of copying the headers into the uncreated directory worked. Is the plan to move the relevant header files into these directories to fix the problem long term? As I see it: 1. It could be a problem with the Makefile.PL or 2. The headers are not being provided in the correct place.

Please try the development version of Tk <http://search.cpan.org/~srezic/Tk-804.027_500/> I believe this problem should be solved there. Regards, Slaven
