[Arsperl-devel] arsperl 1.82 for win32 depends on arapi50.dll

[Jeff M. <Jef...@Re...>]

Hi guys.

The pre-built win32 binary we have published depends on (was built against)
the 5.x version
of the arapi, which is published as arapi50.dll, or arapi51.dll

This means that folks have to have this dll to use the prebuilt 1.82
modules.
If you don't have it, the user gets a error message about that dll not being
found,
and the program exits.

For a 6.x only install, this seems wrong.
The user shouldn't have to install a 5.x dll to use arsperl on the 6.x
servers.

Seems to me that we need to provide prebuilt binaries compiled against the
6.0.1
version of the libs.  Here's a table of some common releases and the dll
that we need
to link against:


5.1.2		arapi51.dll
6.0		arapi60.dll
6.0.1		arapi60.dll
6.3		arapi63.dll

Seems like we need to build more binary versions...

thoughts?
