Re: [Arsperl-users] Unable to Compile ARSPerl 1.90 on Windows 2000

[Michiel B. <mic...@gm...>]

Hi Darryl,

I guess if you'd want to compile ARSPerl with ActiveState Perl, you'd
have to use the same compiler, which is in this case Visual Studio 6.
If you have this installed and the environment variables registered,
you can install ARSPerl.
One other option is to compile Perl yourself and then compile ARSPerl.

Kind regards,

Michiel
