The corresponding Linux libraries and the (old) libraries from http://www.wxperl.co.uk/repository/package.xml which I used with ActivePerl are much smaller. Is it possible to strip the libraries and DLLs, if I don't want to debug the Wx code? Ralf Neubauer

Hi, Normally on windows the dlls should be stripped by the build process but that is currently failing. To strip your installed DLLs: cd C:\strawberry5.18.1.1-32\perl\site\lib\Alien\wxWidgets\msw_3_0_0_uni_gcc_3_4\lib attrib -r *.dll strip *.dll attrib +r *.dll On Mon Oct 06 07:38:07 2014, Ralf.Neubauer@wido.bv.aok.de wrote: Show quoted text

Hi, because the filesizes of our PAR::Packer-packed executables (many different programs in a zip file) i finally came around to implement a-posteriori stripping in a nightly refreshed directory of PPM::Make-generated PPMs. To spare others the effort, here is my Batch-File: setlocal enabledelayedexpansion set TARGET=%1 for /F "usebackq" %%v in (`perl -e "$^V =~ /(\d+)\.(\d+)\.(\d+)/ and print qq{$1.$2}"`) do set PERLREV=%%v for /F %%a in ('perl -e "use Config; print $Config{archname}"') do set PERLARCH=%%a set WORK=%TEMP%\strip-dlls-%PERLARCH%-%PERLREV%-%RANDOM%-%RANDOM% mkdir %WORK% cd /d %WORK% if !CD! neq !WORK! exit /b for %%P in (%TARGET%\Alien-wxWidgets-*.ppd) do ( set BASE=%%~dpnP set PPD=!BASE!.ppd set ARCH=!BASE!.tar.gz set ARCH_STAMP=!ARCH!.timestamp set ARCH_OUT=!BASE!-out.tar.gz set ARCH_BAK=!BASE!-orig.tar.gz set OLD_STAMP=no old file for /F "usebackq tokens=*" %%L in (!ARCH_STAMP!) do set OLD_STAMP=%%L echo OLD_STAMP=_!OLD_STAMP!_ set NEW_STAMP=no new file for %%F in (!ARCH!) do set NEW_STAMP=%%~tzF echo NEW_STAMP=_!NEW_STAMP!_ if !OLD_STAMP! neq !NEW_STAMP!
