There is a gcc bug or dmake bug in cpan.bat while installing Win32::Clipboard. I am using Windows and Strawberry Perl 5.10 portable. Here is my Command line: Show quoted text

Known bug - cannot be fixed at our end as far as I know. The trick is that before you install an XS module (a module that requires compilation of C code that connects to Perl), the provided version of gcc must be in your path. (quick babelfish translation of the error: The instruction "gcc" is either wrongly written or could not be found.) We can't do that easily for Strawberry Portable, since we don't know where you put Portable, and therefore, gcc, or if you even put Portable in a place that stays the same. (It could be on a USB stick, for all we know.) Because of that, you need to do set path=%PATH%;C:\Strawberry\c\bin before starting your CPAN install if the CPAN install needs to call gcc. Does that answer your question? (another note: if you're using Strawberry Portable in C:\Strawberry, why aren't you using the normal versions that go there, and will add the right entries to the path? Is there something we need to do? You can download it from http://strawberry-perl.googlecode.com/files/strawberry-perl-5.10.1.0.msi) --Curtis Jewell On Mon, 11 Jan 2010 11:25 -0500, "Martin Schrön via RT" <bug-Perl-Dist-Strawberry@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text
