Subject: Install fails from both cpan and source
I'm trying to install however it keeps failing as per the below errors. It appears there are a few others online who've had this issue.

Thanks for the report. Could you let me know your version of Windows / Perl / MinGW. If you are using ActivePerl, could you let me know the build number. Also, could you point me towards where I can find details of "a few others online who've had this issue" so I can better understand the problems folks are having. Many Thanks Mark On Mon Dec 06 18:26:17 2010, jkuffner wrote: Show quoted text

I'm running ActivePerl 5.12.2 build 1202 on Windows XP (x86). I just tried the install on a second machine using the same OS and build and it failed as well. I did a quick Google search on the error and came across one thread at http://www.mail-archive.com/par@perl.org/msg04415.html that mentions some of the same errors.

Hi, Thanks for the info. I shall try and replicate the problem and look into a fix. In the meantime, if this is stopping you progressing with work, you can install Win32-Exe using the PPM gui. If version 0.15 is not yet showing as available, close the ppm gui and from the command line ppm repo sync --force Version 0.15 should now show as available.

Subject: MinGW 3.4.5 + Windows XP Failure
Hi, I was able to replicate the problem exactly on Windows XP. The issue appears to be with the MinGW tools. It is not something that affects Win32::Exe alone. For example, if you download the source for Win32::Console and attempt to compile that, you will get the same error. I have checked that installing the latest gcc compiler and tools fixes the issue and indeed it does. mingw-get-inst-20101030.exe from http://www.mingw.org will give a working toolset, as does the 32 bit compiler from http://mingw- w64.sourceforge.net/ I shall leave the bug open as a reference for other users with same issue, but I don't believe there's much I can do by way of a fix in Win32::Exe Regards Mark On Tue Dec 07 10:01:33 2010, jkuffner wrote: Show quoted text
