cygwin and perl, win32::Clipboard

cygwin and perl, win32::Clipboard

[Chris Game]

I'm trying to install the win32::Clipboard perl module and it can't 
find a win32.h file - is this a Cygwin file? Can't find in in the 
setup.

Are these win32 modules SUPPOSED to work with Cygwin? The install 
prog keeps downloading zip files.

C.

It is not included with Cygwin Perl.

Not OOTB, Clive did a port of libwin32 and Win32-API, I have his
latest patch online: http://koeln.convey.de/cywgin/libwin32/

Look what he changed in the libwin32 modules and do so for your
module.  Don't forget:

To build with perl-5.6.1 you need to define the
 following at the beginning of perl.h:

#ifdef __CYGWIN__
#undef WIN32
#undef _WIN32
#endif

Gerrit:

Thanks for the information; rebuilding modules and so on is getting much
deeper than I wanted to go! Thanks for your response anyway.

Chris.
