Hello list,
maybe this is a bit off-topic, sorry!
I would like to create something like a "database-driven-website" based on
MySQL, Apache and.... Well I did something based on PHP as link between
HTML and the Database. Now I want to use Perl as language that does the
cgi-stuff. I know, I ought to use the modules DBI, DBD::mysql and CGI,
but my test-server runs on my desktop-pc with windows on it. As the
modules come as sourcecode, i would have to compile them to use them. My
questions are:
Is there anybody who has already tried this?
(is it worth trying?)
Is there maybe somewhere a binary of one [all] of the modules?
(for win98se)
Is there a (free) c-compiler for windows that can be recommended?
(I�ve tried to download cygwin, but it�s not available at the moment)
If there is no way to install these modules on my windows (ActivePerl),
is there a possibilty to write (simple ;-)) cgi-scripts without? Maybe
examples?
TIA
