Update README.win32.
p4raw-id: //depot/win32/perl@385
These are instructions for building Perl under Windows NT (versions
3.51 or 4.0), using Visual C++ (versions 2.0 through 5.0) or Borland
-C++ (version 5.x). Currently, this port may also build under Windows95,
-but you can expect problems stemming from the unmentionable command
-shell that infests that platform. Note this caveat is only about
+C++ (version 5.02 or later). Currently, this port is reported to build
+under Windows95 using the 4DOS shell--the default shell that infests
+Windows95 will not work (see below). Note this caveat is only about
B<building> perl. Once built, you should be able to B<use> it on
either Win32 platform (modulo the problems arising from the inferior
command shell).
=item Command Shell
-Use the default "cmd" shell that comes with NT. In particular, do
-*not* use the 4DOS/NT shell. The Makefile has commands that are not
-compatible with that shell. The Makefile also has known
-incompatibilites with the default shell that comes with Windows95,
-so building under Windows95 should be considered "unsupported".
+Use the default "cmd" shell that comes with NT. Some versions of the
+popular 4DOS/NT shell have incompatibilities that may cause you trouble.
+If the build fails under that shell, try building again with the cmd
+shell. The Makefile also has known incompatibilites with the "command.com"
+shell that comes with Windows95, so building under Windows95 should
+be considered "unsupported". However, there have been reports of successful
+build attempts using 4DOS/NT version 3.00 under Windows95, using dmake, but
+your mileage may vary.
+
+The surest way to build it is on WindowsNT, using the cmd shell.
=item Borland C++
If you are using the Borland compiler, you will need dmake, a freely
available make that has very nice macro features and parallelability.
(The make that Borland supplies is seriously crippled, and will not
-work for MakeMaker builds--if you *have* to bug someone about this,
-I suggest you bug Borland to fix their make :)
+work for MakeMaker builds.)
+
+A port of dmake for win32 platforms is available from:
-A port of dmake for win32 platforms is available from
-"http://www-personal.umich.edu/~gsar/dmake-4.0-win32.tar.gz".
-Fetch and install dmake somewhere on your path. Also make sure you
-copy the Borland dmake.ini file to some location where you keep
-*.ini files. If you use the binary that comes with the above port, you
-will need to set INIT in your environment to the directory where you
-put the dmake.ini file.
+ http://www-personal.umich.edu/~gsar/dmake-4.1-win32.zip
+
+Fetch and install dmake somewhere on your path (follow the instructions
+in the README.NOW file).
=item Microsoft Visual C++
will need to run the VCVARS32.BAT file usually found somewhere like
C:\MSDEV4.2\BIN. This will set your build environment.
-You can also use dmake to build using Visual C++, provided: you
-copied the dmake.ini for Visual C++; set INIT to point to the
-directory where you put it, as above; and edit win32/config.vc
-and change "make=nmake" to "make=dmake". The last step is only
-essential if you want to use dmake to be your default make for
-building extensions using MakeMaker.
+You can also use dmake to build using Visual C++, provided:
+you set OSRELEASE to "microsft" (or whatever the directory name
+under which the Visual C dmake configuration lives) in your environment,
+and edit win32/config.vc to change "make=nmake" into "make=dmake". The
+latter step is only essential if you want to use dmake as your default
+make for building extensions using MakeMaker.
=item Permissions
=item *
Edit the Makefile (or makefile.mk, if using dmake) and change the values
-of INST_DRV and INST_TOP if you want perl to be installed in a location
-other than "C:\PERL". If you are using Visual C++ ver. 2.0, uncomment
-the line that sets "CCTYPE=MSVC20".
+of INST_DRV and INST_TOP. If you are using Visual C++ ver. 2.0, uncomment
+the line that sets "CCTYPE=MSVC20". You can also enable various build
+flags.
+
+If you have either the source or a library that contains des_fcrypt(),
+enable the appropriate option in the makefile. des_fcrypt() is not
+bundled with the distribution due to US Government restrictions
+on the export of cryptographic software. Nevertheless, this routine
+is part of the "libdes" library (written by Ed Young) which is widely
+available worldwide, usually along with SSLeay (for example:
+"ftp://fractal.mta.ca/pub/crypto/SSLeay/DES/"). Set CRYPT_SRC to the
+name of the file that implements des_fcrypt(). Alternatively, if
+you have built a library that contains des_fcrypt(), you can set
+CRYPT_LIB to point to the library name.
+
+Perl will also build without des_fcrypt(), but the crypt() builtin will
+fail at run time.
You will also have to make sure CCHOME points to wherever you installed
your compiler.
executable is only needed on Windows95, and should be used instead of
perl.exe, and then only if you want sockets to work properly on Windows95.
This is necessitated by a bug in the Microsoft C Runtime that cannot be
-worked around in the "normal" perl.exe. Again, if this bugs you, please
-bug Microsoft :). perl95.exe gets built with its own private copy of the
-C Runtime that is not accessible to extensions (which see the DLL version
-of the CRT). Be aware, therefore, that this perl95.exe will have
-esoteric problems with extensions like perl/Tk that themselves use the C
-Runtime heavily, or want to free() pointers malloc()-ed by perl.

You can avoid the perl95.exe problems completely if you use Borland
C++ for building perl (perl95.exe is not needed and will not be built
=head2 Installation
Type "nmake install" (or "dmake install"). This will put the newly
-built perl and the libraries under "C:\perl" (actually whatever you set
-C<INST_TOP> to in the Makefile). It will also install the pod
-documentation under C<$INST_TOP\lib\pod> and HTML versions of the same
-under C<$INST_TOP\lib\pod\html>. To use the Perl you just installed,
-set your PATH environment variable to "C:\perl\bin" (or C<$INST_TOP\bin>,
-if you changed the default as above).

+Makefile. It will also install the pod documentation under

=head2 Usage Hints
If you put extensions in unusual places, you can set PERL5LIB
to a list of paths separated by semicolons where you want perl
to look for libraries. Look for descriptions of other environment
-variables you can set in the perlrun podpage.
+variables you can set in L<perlrun>.
+
+You can also control the shell that perl uses to run system() and
+backtick commands via PERL5SHELL. See L<perlrun>.
Sometime in the future, some of the configuration information
for perl will be moved into the Windows registry.
