Re: Can you run Inline::C? (Score:1)
I don't know if you are interested in non-MSVC reports, but this is the test result on Windows Vista, 32bit, with latest Strawberry Perl (mingw/gcc).
Couldn't seem to install CPAN::Reporter, because IO::CaptureOutput is a dependency...
Didn't dig into the test failure.
If you want me to do that, or test something else, just ask.
------------------
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Writing Makefile for IO::CaptureOutput
cp lib/IO/CaptureOutput.pm blib\lib\IO\CaptureOutput.pm
cp lib/IO/CaptureOutput.po

The last time I checked (2-3 months ago), gcc didn't work on Vista at all, and I couldn't install any perl XS modules.
I've found something in the mingw mailing lists about a "gcc-vista", but it's not listed on the SF download page.
(Sorry I can't be more helpful, I don't currently have a Vista box set up).

The lack of a working perl was the last issue stopping me replacing my severely outdated home G4 with a vista box.
