Re^3: It's 2019 and still no Wx for strawberry perl

[marto]

While I use and recommended Strawberry over Activestate I don't believe your statement to be true. Besides, I was specifically addressing Strawberry perl builds of Wx, on Windows 10 (e.g. this pass).

I never said I preferred Activestate, to the contrary I agree with you that Strawberry is better. You can't load Wx module or any module with activestate because it requires dmake which comes with the non free version. Strawberry perl is unable to use Prima, Wx, Tk, Tkx or any gui libraries except Win32::GUI

While it is difficult to build them from source using cpanm etc, PPMs for Tk and GTK can be obtained from http://sisyphusion.tk/ppmindex.html.

I've been using the Gtk PPMs for some time now with Strawberry Perl and they work perfectly well. I've never tried the Tk PPM, but have no reason expect it will not work. The PPMs might also work with ActivePerl, but it is many years since I used that distribution.

I didn't say that you preferred ActiveState, and dmake is easy to install anyway, on supported versions, Re^4: It's 2019 and still no Wx for strawberry perl.
