2016-06-15 Oddmuse and Windows

Today I ran the Oddmuse test suite on Windows and it worked! I am amazed.

All tests successful.
Files=136, Tests=2907, 1028 wallclock secs ( 0.41 usr  0.45 sys + 211.30 cusr 219.98 csys = 432.14 CPU)
Result: PASS

I had already installed Cygwin and had used it to install Perl v5.22.2. I don’t think I ever ran cpan on this system because I had to set it up. It created $USERPROFILE/AppData/Roaming/perl5/ for me and set up local::lib.

And then I started installing.

I needed some libraries and a compiler which I installed via Cygwin. I already had the diff utils installed, but perhaps you never needed them. Oddmuse needs them.

diffutils
gcc-g++
libcrypt-devel
libexpat-devel
libxml2-devel
libgd-devel
libdb-devel

Then I started by installing cpanm.

cpan App::cpanminus

I had to add /usr/local/bin to my PATH.
