Hello, My appologies if this particular problem has shown up here before. I looked around, but didn't see anything that quite addressed it.
I am trying to build perl on my windows system using gcc and dmake. The versions are: Win 2000 5.00.2195 SP3 Perl 5.8.0 gcc 2.95.2 dmake 4.1 I followed the README.win32 instructions pretty carefully for setting up the makefile and everything, but when I run dmake I get the following: G:\Career\perl\perl-5.8.0\win32>dmake del /f config.h copy config_H.vc config.h 1 file(s) copied. cl -c -nologo -Gf -W3 -I..\lib\CORE -I.\include -I. -I.. -DWIN32 -D_CONSOLE -DN O_STRICT -DPERLDLL -DPERL_CORE -MD -DNDEBUG -O1 -DPERL_IMPLICI T_CONTEXT -DPERL_IMPLICIT_SYS -DPERL_MSVCRT_READFIX -Foperlglob.obj perlglob.c 'cl' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. dmake.exe: Error code 1, while making 'perlglob.obj' I previously tried building using nmake, and I got almost exactly the same message. Can anyone tell me why 'cl' is giving the compiler (or is it dos?) problems, or suggest at least where to start looking for the answer? I'd really appreciate it.
