Perl 5.14 Support

| 1 Comment
PPMs for Perl 5.14 have been added to the repository for:

MS Windows x86
MS Windows x86
Linux x86
Linux x86_64

ActivePerl 5.14 for Mac OS X is now an Intel only i386 / x86_64 universal binary which runs as a 64 bit Perl on supporting machines. wxWidgets 2.8.12 cannot be built for x86_64 architecture (it uses carbon which is 32 bit only). It ought to be possible to build an i386 only wxPerl + wxWidgets against ActivePerl 5.14 and make the special wxPerl binary run as 32 bit i386 only. We have not managed it yet so no PPMs are available for Perl 5.14 on Mac OS X.



PPMs Updated - Wx 0.99 / wxWidgets 2.8.12

| 0 Comments
The PPMs for ActivePerl at the wxPerl repository have been updated to the latest versions of Wx and wxWidgets stable.

Wx 0.99
wxWidgets 2.8.12

On Mac OS X,  the PPM provided Wx still requires that you use the 'wxperl' launch executable. This is because the binary components of the PPM dists have paths encoded that work when packaged using PDK (and Wx::Perl::Packager) as well as when run with 'wxperl'. There are better way to accommodate this but I have not implemented one yet.
