| Subject: | Compiling Win32-GUI on Cygwin |
Hi. I'm really interested in this module. I need to begin windows GUI programming, and I want to do it with perl. Is there currently a work around for this problem?
Thank you.
The problem is that Win32-GUI-0.0.558 will not make on Cygwin on a laptop with Win2K Pro:
$ perl Makefile.PL
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lcomctl32
