unable to get GMP and Perl working...

Hello,

I am truly stuck after several failed attempts on Win XP ..can anyone
please assist here.

I was told "activestat e perl is compiled by MS visual c++, it cannot
use library files compiled under cygwin. you can either use perl in
cygwin with our cygwin version gmp library in that webpage, or use
activestate perl with our gmp library which is also compiled using MS
visuall C++ (the information can be found in the same page:
http://www.cs.nyu.edu/exact/core/gmp/index.html"

So I uninstalled everyting, reininstalled Cygwin with MAke, Perl, etc.
etc..followed the instructions, ran a program that read "use GMP;" and
get:

Can't locate loadable object for module GMP in @INC (@INC contains:
/usr/lib/per
l5/5.8.2/cygwin-thread-multi-64int /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.2
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl
/5.8.2/cygwin-thread-multi-64int /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2
/usr/lib/perl5/s
ite_perl .) at nada.txt line 1
Compilation failed in require at nada.txt line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at nada.txt line 1.

I even copied cyggmp-3.dll into several directories, and gmp.pm from
the GNU MP download - that didnt help either. What can I do ? PLEASE
HELP I JUST WANT TO GET GMP RUNNING WITH PERL... I do not have visual
C++

I'm working on a prototype of a new application in Python. At some point, if this ever turns into a product, the powers that be will almost certainly demand that it be done in Perl. My job will be to convince them otherwise. The basic design of the application is object oriented. I've never used Perl's OO features, so I'm not in a good position to make a comparison of the two languages from an OO point of view. Can somebody who's...

So, I download the latest "stable" tar for perl (5.8.7) and try to compile it on the Solaris 8 (SPARC) box that I administrate. I try all sorts of different switches, but I can't get it to compile. I need it to be compiled with threads. Anyone have any wisdom on how best to do this? Here's a transcript of my latest attempt. It's long; you might want to skip to the bottom, where I try "make" and the fatal errors start happening.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
