| Subject: | Error while make-ing on Windows : undefined reference to `Perl_pad_swipe' |
Described in more details here : http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=976673
Hello,
i'm trying to install MooseX::Declare and Method::Signatures on windows
Strawberry. For both of these modules, one of the prerequisites is
Devel::BeginLift, and it won't install.
I tried :

I tried to install by hand with dmake, and got the same error.
I searched on Google but didn't find a solution. The fact that i don't
understand the error probably doesn't help.
It seems that the error is
BeginLift.o:BeginLift.c:(.text+0x787): undefined reference to
`Perl_pad_swipe'
In the PerlMonks message, someone gives hint of what a solution could be :
"
To me that means there is no way that is going to work (at least on
win32) without compiling a new perl which explicitly exports pad_swipe
-- or copy/pasting pad_swipe code into BeginLift.xs -- this has happened
before with Devel/B:: modules :) the cost of being on win32
The http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=Devel-BeginLift+0.001003
confirms this, there are no win32 PASS grades
Please report bug upstream to BeginLift author
