Win32::SerialPort is not a recommended module for any platform other
than ActivePerl for MSWin32.
It uses Win32::API.
The author had not the lightest idea how to use ExtUtils::MakeMaker.
cpan Win32::SerialPort
..
CPAN::Reporter: Makefile.PL result is 'pass', No errors.
BBIRTH/Win32-SerialPort-0.19.tar.gz
/usr/bin/perl.exe Makefile.PL -- NO Makefile created
Running make test
Make had some problems, won't test
Running make install
Make had some problems, won't install
With the simple Makefile.PL below[1] and my Win32::API patches[2] for gcc,
it works fine [3].
[1]:
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
WriteMakefile(
'NAME' => 'Win32::SerialPort',
'VERSION_FROM' => 'lib/Win32/SerialPort.pm', # finds $VERSION
);
[2]:
add http://rurban.xarch.at/software/cygwin to your setup path and
select perl-Win32-API
0.42-1 for perl-5.8.x and 0.42-2 for perl-5.10.0-3
