in reply to Re^3: Not so trivial question
in thread Perl script to binary file (lone stand)

I had an error in running builds form pp

THe error most of my friends reported is:

"envpring" is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file

Other reeport was:

C:\Users\cdpetro>C:\Users\cdpetro\Desktop\envprint.exe Program too big to fit in memory

A plain question: can I make a windows executable from my linux distro using pp and a perl script?

    I think what Anonymous Monk wants to tell you is that you will need to provide more information about your problem. Interesting points would be:

    • What command line do you use to create your executable?
    • How does your executable "not work on Windows"? The exact error message and/or symptoms are important.

    • Can you produce and post a small (10 to 20 line) example script that exhibits the same symptoms, so we can easily replicate your problem?

    Again you've failed to actually ask a question that anyone can reply to with anything other than truisms on how to actually ask questions. How do I post a question effectively?.

    Update: Before badly editing the post in question read:

    I am just wondering, my binaries does not work on windows...

    Is there something more specific that I am missing?

    It's nice to see that even when you update your post (removing what you previously asked), you still manage to ignore the advice given in the existing replies.

    In future when editing posts please don't remove the content as can make replies somewhat redundant.

    Yes, a real question
