Hello,

I received this bug report on one of my modules.  Is this a known problem with Module::Build or nmake?

Cheers,

Nice module!! installation works on Win32 systems.
I also noticed that nmake test does not work.
F:\perl_modules\DateTime-Format-ISO8601-0.02>nmake test

Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility   Version 6.00.8168.0
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1988-1998. All rights reserved.

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make 'test'
Stop.

So I had to run perl build test to run the tests.
You might want to update the docs on this.

Module::Build doesn't use make, so instead of "nmake test" you need to do
"./Build test" or ".\Build test".

But it generates a makefile on win32 that calls Build so you can still use make, right?  So the question is why does 'nmake' succeed and 'nmake test' fail?

This has been fixed in latest CVS. Basically, it was generating
a GNU makefile, not a "lowest common denominator" one.
