Perl modules aren't like that -- whatever perl.exe you use to compile your module has builtin defaults and settings for "how I make modules". Unfortunately, this means that cygwin-perl builds modules for cygwin-perl. And no other. If you want to build ActiveState perl modules, you need to use ActiveState perl to do it -- and check the ActiveState website for instructions how to do that. Modules are not interchangable between perl implementations. I'd LOVE to be wrong about this, but I don't think so... --Chuck Peter Buckley wrote: > You can compile your module with -mno-cygwin and > it won't require the cygwin1.dll. > > Is this in the FAQ? > http://cygwin.com/faq/ > > HTH, > Peter > > "Poggesi@inwind.it" wrote: > >>Hi, my name's Marco and i'm a student at computer engeneer at University of Florence, Italy. >>I'm working in Perl for my next exam. >>I've used cygwin to use a Unix module run under Windows. >>I have installed it, and after a bit of work it run properly. >>Now i have to export this module, that run correcly with cygwin, under ActiveState's Perl. >>I need HELP...i think that cygwin use its dll to make running the module...i think i could remake the module with a static linking with cygwin and then export it in someway....but i don't know this way... >>Pls help me....i don't now very much about Cygwin....i need a clear help. >>Thanks for your times! >> -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
