in thread Help With Perl SDL

Can't locate object method "config" via package "Alien::SDL" in directory C:\strawberry

I didn't strike that one. During the 'perl build.pl' step of the Alien::SDL installation, I was presented with 3 options regarding which SDL package to use.
Did that happen for you ?
Which option did you take ? (I took the first.)

To copy'n'paste to/from a cmd.exe shell, click on the little cmd icon that's top left of the cmd.exe window. Then select "Properties", then tick "Quick Edit".
Then you'll be able to select, copy , and paste using the mouse in the usual way.

Cheers,
Rob

I also chose the first option Got it now: `Can't locate object method "config" via package "Alien::SDL" at C:/str +awberry/Dw inperl/perl/site/lib/SDL/Internal/Loader.pm line 34.

This is all rather mysterious. What version of Alien::SDL did you end up with ? (I have version 1.438.) You'll get your version number by running: `perl -MAlien::SDL -e "print $Alien::SDL::VERSION"` [download] Does the following also fail for you: `perl -MAlien::SDL -e "print Alien::SDL->config('libs')"` [download] For me, that produces: `-L"C:\_32\strawberry516\perl\site\lib\auto\share\dist\Alien-SDL\1.438_ +a1ddf79e\bin\..\lib" -lmingw32 -lSDLmain -lSDL -mwindows` [download] Cheers, Rob	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Anonymous Monk, no not that file. I'm running a simple Perl script file, that tells me if SDL is working correctly or not. The version stated is 1.438, from doing that query. I get pretty much the same output, from doing your second query: `-L"C:\strawberry\perl\site\lib\auto\share\dist\Alien-SDL\1.438_a1ddf79 +e\bin\..\l ib" -lmingw32 -lSDLmain -lSDL -mwindows` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

And when does that happen, when you run Build.PL	[reply]
