Subject: Using cl as the linker when using MS compiler
In lib/Alien/wxWidgets/Utility.pm my $b = ExtUtils::CBuilder->new( config => { cc => $cc, ld => $cc }, quiet => 1, ); is wrong when using MS's tools. The linker is different than the compiler. I worked around it by doing my $b = ExtUtils::CBuilder->new( config => { cc => $cc, ld => $cc eq 'cl' ? 'link' : $cc }, quiet => 1, ); But it still seems very wrong to me. Why do you specify a compiler and linker, but take the compiler and linker options from Config.pm?

Because %Config has the options for a C compiler/linker, I need to check for a C++ compiler. Regards, Mattia

ExtUtils::CBuilder reads %Config. Anything you pass to ExtUtils::CBuilder->new(config => {...}) *overrides* %Config, making it fail when suing MS's compilers. If your intent is for ExtUtils::CBuilder to use $Config{cc} and $Config{ld}, just use ExtUtils::CBuilder->new(silent => 1). If that's not your intention, I did not understand when you said.

oh, I think the you're talking about C vs C++. Makes sense. I guess you need to do something similar for the linker.
