Change Perl_sv_isa to sv_isa // if (Perl_sv_isa(sv, "Curses::Window")) { if (sv_isa(sv, "Curses::Window")) { I don't know where the author got Perl_sv_isa, but he shouldn't be using it. It is not mentioned in perlapi or any perl documentation. Props to http://dbforums.com/arch/96/2002/9/494449 for hint.

You need to link to microsofts LIBC.LIB Make the following change in Makefile.PL 'visualc' => [ '-IE:\new\PDCurses-2.6\win32' => '-LC:\Progra~1\Micros~1\VC98\Lib LIBC.LIB -L E:\new\PDCurses-2.6\win32 pdcurses.lib panel.lib' # curses.lib ], 'default' => 'visualc' After which it will compile fine. Too bad there ain't no tests ;)

I have just taken over maintainership of this package and have changed the Perl_sv_isa to sv_isa in Curses-1.07.
