SQLite2 perl make error

Hi,

I am not very familiar with c compilers. So, can sombody explain what I am doing wrong??

I tried to install a perl module with cc and then tried with gcc

Many Thanks

$ gmake
gcc -c -I/opt/perl_32/lib/5.8.8/PA-RISC1.1-thread-multi/auto/DBI -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L -D_REENTRANT -D_HPUX_SOURCE -fPIC -DUSE_SITECUSTOMIZE -DNO_HASH_SEED -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -O2 -DVERSION=\"0.33\" -DXS_VERSION=\"0.33\" -fPIC "-I/opt/perl_32/lib/5.8.8/PA-RISC1.1-thread-multi/CORE" -DNDEBUG=1 -DSQLITE_PTR_SZ=4 -DHAVE_USLEEP=1 SQLite2.c

Shalom,

You are probably compiling code with an error.

IT would appear that a variable is incomplete nor not quoted completely.

If you don't understand the code, take it to someone who does.

Also check the compiler instructions so you are certain you are using the right compiler and environment.

Hi:

You should compile Perl modules that require compilation with the same compiler that was used to compile your Perl distribution.

# perl -V:cc

...will show you 'cc' or 'gcc' pointing to either the HP-UX Ansi C compiler (not the bundled C compiler!) or the GNU 'gcc' compiler.

The easist way to compile and install new modules is to use the CPAN module and let it follow any dependencies:

# perl -MCPAN -e shell

Regards!
