Apache::REquest on cygwin

[Dan Horne <dh...@xtra.co.nz>]

Hi

I've been trting to get mod_perl working under cygwin. I've manages to
install both Apache and mod_perl and have tested the earlier scripts in the
O'Reilly "Writing Apache Modules" -e.g. The guestbook app.

However, I can't get Apache::Request installed. The tail end of the make is:

:
lots of undefined symbols
:

/tmp/libapreq-0.33/Request/../blib/arch/auto/libapreq/libapreq.a(apache_mult
ipart_buffer.o)(.text+0x377):apache_multipart_buffer.c: undefined reference
to `ap_make_table'
/tmp/libapreq-0.33/Request/../blib/arch/auto/libapreq/libapreq.a(apache_mult

make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/libapreq-0.33/Request'
make: *** [subdirs] Error 2

__END__

Has anyone got this working? I'd certainly appreciate some feedback

Thanks

Dan

I'm not very familiar with building things on cygwin, but
you may have to specify the location and name of the apache
lib to link against.
