Subject:	Using MQSeries module with Perl on Windows

Hello,

I am hoping someone would be able to help me use the MQSeries module for Perl on Windows.  I have attempted to use the following steps to get the module installed. Everything seems to fail and cannot get it installed.



Perl: Installing MQSeries CPAN module on Windows XP

Steps to get it installed:
1.

Open a command prompt (Start->Run->cmd.exe)
2.      An alternative to this step is to open a Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt (Start->All Programs->Microsoft C++ 2008 Express Edition->Visual Studio Tools->Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt)
3.      Open CPAN from the same window (perl -MCPAN -e shell)
4.      Run install MQSeries. If CPAN complains saying that it doesn't know what MQSeries is, do m MQSeries first.
5.      Now, if all goes well, it will fail during make test. That's normal (I've never figured out how to set MQSeries up in a way that it won't fail during test. Neither has anyone I know.)
6.      If make test was the only place where it failed, run force install MQSeries to get it installed regardless of make test.
