Hi,

Sorry for my previous message because it was sent from a non-subscribed
email address, and only the admin probably received it. Here it is again:

I am using Perl 5.8.8 and I have installed Win::GUI::Scintilla using ppm:

Version: 1.7
Author: ROCHER Laurent (
lrocher@...)

Location: LRocher PPM
Available Platforms:
1. MSWin32-x86-multi-thread-5.8

And I have tried just:

perl -MWin32::GUI::Scintilla -e1

But an error window appear with:

perl.exe - Unable To Locate DLL
The dynamic link library Perl56.dll could not be found in the specified path

I am using Perl 5.8.8 and not Perl 5.6.
Is this version of scintilla working only with Perl 5.6?

Is there a Win32::GUI::Scintilla that can work with Perl 5.8.8?

Thank you.

Teddy

Basically, yes, that version only works with 5.6. The reason is that the 
internals of win32-gui have changed over time, which causes a fatal crash in 
5.8 but not in 5.6.

>Is there a Win32::GUI::Scintilla that can work with Perl 5.8.8?

Yes, version 1.8 - you'll have to build it from the sources (via VC or 
mingw) - if you can wait a little longer a new build should be round the 
corner.

Cheers,

Ok, thanks. I can try to compile it even though I am not a C programmer.
Can you please tell me where can I download the source code from?

Not possible AFAIK, you have to build for a specific runtime.  I believe 
that the licence for MS VC++ allows you to distribute msvcr71.dll (but 
you should check).  I'd be surprised if Octavian doesn't have a copy on 
his machine somewhere anyway ... he just need to make a copy and put it 
somewhere on this path (or in the same directory as perl.exe?) so that 
the running executable can find it when it wants it.

An alternative is to build for msvcrt.dll (which IIRC is distributed 
with all versions of windows.) To do this you need a copy of the 
msvcrt.lib that is distributed with VC6, and make you compile 
environment find it when linking *before* it finds the msvcrt.lib that 
comes with later VC environments.

[As an aside I have sent Octavian a copy of the latest Scintilla code, 
compiled with VC6]

Rob.
