hello Tom,

every time I try to build sybperl with ActiveState perl, I get some trouble.
There is a 2.0.9 version at ActiveState site.

To build the last release of sybperl, change to Larry Wall's perl
distribution (version 5.004_02). With this version, I don't get any trouble.

best regard

I'm trying to install sybperl 2.0 on an NT workstation using MS VC++ 6.  The
Perl I have is ActiveState 5.005_03 build 515.  I have Sybase 11.9.2
installed.

The step that creates the library Ctlib.lib fails with a set of linker
errors:

CTlib.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__getpid
perlCAPI.lib(perlCAPI.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
__imp__InitializeCriticalSection@4
perlCAPI.lib(perlCAPI.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
__imp__DeleteCriticalSection@4
perlCAPI.lib(perlCAPI.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
__imp__LeaveCriticalSection@4
perlCAPI.lib(perlCAPI.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
__imp__EnterCriticalSection@4
PerlCRT.lib(dllmain.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
__imp__DisableThreadLibraryCalls@4
..\blib\arch\auto\Sybase\CTlib\CTlib.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 6 unresolved
externals

Does anyone know why this is happening, and, even better, what to do about
it?

I just installed the TK extention (tk800.015) successfully, so VC++ appears
to be OK.


TIA
