in thread Install module Tcl Strawberryperl

Hi,

ActiveTcl comes with a .lib

 C:\Tcl8.6/lib/tcl86.lib

And  strawberry-perl-5.20.3.3-32bit-portable finds it no problem using ExtUtils::MakeMaker version 7.10 and 7.34 (latest). 

...
g++.exe -o blib\arch\auto\Tcl\Tcl.xs.dll -Wl,--base-file -Wl,dll.base 
+-mdll -s 
-L"C:\strawberry-perl-5.20.3.3-32bit-portable\perl\lib\CORE"
-L"C:\strawberry-perl-5.20.3.3-32bit-portable\c\lib"
Tcl.o   
"C:\strawberry-perl-5.20.3.3-32bit-portable\perl\lib\CORE\libperl520.a
+"
"C:\Tcl8.6\lib\tcl86.lib"
....

[download]

I think OP should verify .lib file exists, then get latest ExtUtils::MakeMaker and try again

    Hi

    My ActiveTcl installation has a tcl86t.lib (note the t). I'll need to first understand ExtUtils::MakeMaker as I do not know this module and I am not quite sure what do I have to do with it.

      Hi,

      Try calling  perl Makefile.PL -DTCL_LIB_FILE=tcl86t.lib

      While this is not an issue with ExtUtils::MakeMaker itself, still a good idea to keep it current

      This is a bug in VKON/Tcl-1.05/Makefile.PL , it is not retrieving TCL_LIB_FILE= value from C:/ActiveTcl/lib/tclConfig.sh , which ought to be tcl86t.lib

      Maybe TCL_LIB_FILE value wasn't available before , but its available know. You should report this bug to VKON ( bug-Tcl@rt.cpan.org ) and reference this thread
