making perl script an executable program.

[zcabeli]

Hello,

i've installed some modules in my unix machine which i'm using in my scripts. however, i'd like to make those scripts executable from any machine, with minimal requirements of perl installed. is it possible ?

thanks,

You can look into something like perl2exe, but I don't think anyone here has much experience in using it or any other modules to do so.

I think when you make a perl program into an executable with perl2exe it includes perl in the executable. Maybe look into perlcc but I have no experience with it myself. Make sure to read the perlcc documentation carefully.

How about PAR or PAR::Packer?

U can try another way also without installing several modules..

Just make a copy of required modules in one server system.

Call that module exists path using

use lib 'module exists path';

Actually, I don't know if that will work. Referencing Perl modules on another machine could run into things like permissions issues and the like. Plus, I don't know if Perl would like it, but I could be wrong.
