.SH "NAME"
perlwin32 \- Perl under Windows
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
These are instructions for building Perl under Windows 2000 and later.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Before you start, you should glance through the \s-1README\s0 file
found in the top-level directory to which the Perl distribution
was extracted.  Make sure you read and understand the terms under
which this software is being distributed.
.PP
Also make sure you read \*(L"\s-1BUGS AND CAVEATS\*(R"\s0 below for the
known limitations of this port.
.PP
The \s-1INSTALL\s0 file in the perl top-level has much information that is
only relevant to people building Perl on Unix-like systems.  In
particular, you can safely ignore any information that talks about
\&\*(L"Configure\*(R".
.PP
You may also want to look at one other option for building a perl that
will work on Windows: the \s-1README\s0.cygwin file, which give a different
set of rules to build a perl for Windows.  This method will probably
enable you to build a more Unix-compatible perl, but you will also
need to download and use various other build-time and run-time support
software described in that file.
.PP
This set of instructions is meant to describe a so-called \*(L"native\*(R"
port of Perl to the Windows platform.  This includes both 32\-bit and
64\-bit Windows operating systems.  The resulting Perl requires no
additional software to run (other than what came with your operating
system).  Currently, this port is capable of using one of the
following compilers on the Intel x86 architecture:
.PP
.Vb 4
\&      Microsoft Visual C++    version 6.0 or later
\&      Intel C++ Compiler      (experimental)
\&      Gcc by mingw.org        gcc version 3.4.5\-5.3.0
\&      Gcc by mingw\-w64.org    gcc version 4.4.3 or later
.Ve
.PP
Note that the last two of these are actually competing projects both
delivering complete gcc toolchain for \s-1MS\s0 Windows:
.IP "<http://mingw.org>" 4
.IX Item "<http://mingw.org>"
Delivers gcc toolchain targeting 32\-bit Windows platform.
.IP "<http://mingw\-w64.org>" 4
.IX Item "<http://mingw-w64.org>"
Delivers gcc toolchain targeting both 64\-bit Windows and 32\-bit Windows
platforms (despite the project name \*(L"mingw\-w64\*(R" they are not only 64\-bit
oriented). They deliver the native gcc compilers and cross-compilers
that are also supported by perl's makefile.
.PP
The Microsoft Visual \*(C+ compilers are also now being given away free. They are
available as \*(L"Visual \*(C+ Toolkit 2003\*(R" or \*(L"Visual \*(C+ 2005\-2022 Express [or
Community, from 2017] Edition\*(R" (and also as part of the \*(L".NET Framework \s-1SDK\*(R"\s0)
and are the same compilers that ship with \*(L"Visual \*(C+ .NET 2003 Professional\*(R"
or \*(L"Visual \*(C+ 2005\-2022 Professional\*(R" respectively.
.PP
This port can also be built on \s-1IA64/AMD64\s0 using:
.PP
.Vb 2
\&      Microsoft Platform SDK    Nov 2001 (64\-bit compiler and tools)
\&      MinGW64 compiler (gcc version 4.4.3 or later)
.Ve
.PP
The Windows \s-1SDK\s0 can be downloaded from <https://developer.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/sdk\-archive>.
The MinGW64 compiler is available at <http://mingw\-w64.org>.
The latter is actually a cross-compiler targeting Win64. There's also a trimmed
down compiler (no java, or gfortran) suitable for building perl available at:
<http://strawberryperl.com/package/kmx/64_gcctoolchain/>
.PP
\&\s-1NOTE:\s0 If you're using a 32\-bit compiler to build perl on a 64\-bit Windows
operating system, then you should set the \s-1WIN64\s0 environment variable to \*(L"undef\*(R".
Also, the trimmed down compiler only passes tests when \s-1USE_ITHREADS\s0 *= define
(as opposed to undef) and when the \s-1CFG\s0 *= Debug line is commented out.
.PP
This port fully supports MakeMaker (the set of modules that
is used to build extensions to perl).  Therefore, you should be
able to build and install most extensions found in the \s-1CPAN\s0 sites.
See \*(L"Usage Hints for Perl on Windows\*(R" below for general hints about this.
.SS "Setting Up Perl on Windows"
.IX Subsection "Setting Up Perl on Windows"
.IP "Make" 4
.IX Item "Make"
You need a \*(L"make\*(R" program to build the sources.  If you are using
Visual \*(C+ or the Windows \s-1SDK\s0 tools, you can use nmake supplied with Visual \*(C+
or Windows \s-1SDK.\s0 You may also use gmake instead of nmake.  Builds using gcc need
gmake. nmake is not supported for gcc builds.  Parallel building is only
supported with gmake, not nmake.
.IP "Command Shell" 4
.IX Item "Command Shell"
Use the default \*(L"cmd\*(R" shell that comes with Windows.  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.
.Sp
Make sure the path to the build directory does not contain spaces.  The
build usually works in this circumstance, but some tests will fail.
.IP "Microsoft Visual \*(C+" 4
.IX Item "Microsoft Visual "
The nmake that comes with Visual \*(C+ will suffice for building. Visual \*(C+
requires that certain things be set up in the console before Visual \*(C+ will
successfully run. To make a console box be able to run the C compiler, you will
need to beforehand, run \f(CW\*(C`vcvarsall.bat x86\*(C'\fR to compile for x86\-32 and for
x86\-64 \f(CW\*(C`vcvarsall.bat amd64\*(C'\fR. On a typical install of a Microsoft \*(C+
compiler product, these batch files will already be in your \f(CW\*(C`PATH\*(C'\fR
environment variable so you may just type them without an absolute path into
your console. If you need to find the absolute path to the batch file, it is
usually found somewhere like
C:\eProgram Files (x86)\eMicrosoft Visual Studio 14.0\eVC.
With some newer Microsoft C products (released after ~2004), the installer will
put a shortcut in the start menu to launch a new console window with the
console already set up for your target architecture (x86\-32 or x86\-64 or \s-1IA64\s0).
With the newer compilers, you may also use the older batch files if you choose
so.
.IP "Microsoft Visual \*(C+ 2008\-2022 Express/Community Edition" 4
.IX Item "Microsoft Visual 2008-2022 Express/Community Edition"
These free versions of Visual \*(C+ 2008\-2022 Professional contain the same
compilers and linkers that ship with the full versions, and also contain
everything necessary to build Perl, rather than requiring a separate download
of the Windows \s-1SDK\s0 like previous versions did.
.Sp
These packages can be downloaded by searching in the Download Center at
<https://www.microsoft.com/downloads/search.aspx?displaylang=en>.  (Providing exact
links to these packages has proven a pointless task because the links keep on
changing so often.)
.Sp
Install Visual \*(C+ 2008\-2022 Express/Community, then setup your environment
using, e.g.
.Sp
.Vb 1
\& C:\eProgram Files\eMicrosoft Visual Studio 12.0\eCommon7\eTools\evsvars32.bat
.Ve
.Sp
(assuming the default installation location was chosen).
.Sp
Perl should now build using the win32/Makefile.  You will need to edit that
file to set \s-1CCTYPE\s0 to one of \s-1MSVC90\-MSVC142\s0 first.
.IP "Microsoft Visual \*(C+ 2005 Express Edition" 4
.IX Item "Microsoft Visual 2005 Express Edition"
This free version of Visual \*(C+ 2005 Professional contains the same compiler
and linker that ship with the full version, but doesn't contain everything
necessary to build Perl.
.Sp
You will also need to download the \*(L"Windows \s-1SDK\*(R"\s0 (the \*(L"Core \s-1SDK\*(R"\s0 and \*(L"\s-1MDAC
SDK\*(R"\s0 components are required) for more header files and libraries.

other \s-1OS\s0 versions too.  For example, the \*(L"Windows Server 2003 R2 Platform \s-1SDK\*(R"\s0
also runs on Windows \s-1XP SP2\s0 and Windows 2000.

Note that it is generally not a good idea to try to build a perl with

You will have to make sure that \s-1CCTYPE\s0 is set correctly and that
\&\s-1CCHOME\s0 points to wherever you installed your compiler.  For \s-1GCC\s0 this

To try gmake's parallel mode, type \*(L"gmake \-j2\*(R", where 2, is the maximum number

.IP "Using perl from the command line" 4
.IX Item "Using perl from the command line"
If you are accustomed to using perl from various command-line
shells found in \s-1UNIX\s0 environments, you will be less than pleased
with what Windows offers by way of a command shell.
.Sp
The crucial thing to understand about the Windows environment is that
the command line you type in is processed twice before Perl sees it.
First, your command shell (usually \s-1CMD.EXE\s0) preprocesses the command
line, to handle redirection, environment variable expansion, and
location of the executable to run. Then, the perl executable splits
the remaining command line into individual arguments, using the
C runtime library upon which Perl was built.
.Sp
It is particularly important to note that neither the shell nor the C
runtime do any wildcard expansions of command-line arguments (so
wildcards need not be quoted).  Also, the quoting behaviours of the
shell and the C runtime are rudimentary at best (and may, if you are
using a non-standard shell, be inconsistent).  The only (useful) quote
character is the double quote (").  It can be used to protect spaces
and other special characters in arguments.
.Sp
The Windows documentation describes the shell parsing rules here:
<https://docs.microsoft.com/en\-us/windows\-server/administration/windows\-commands/cmd>
and the C runtime parsing rules here:
<https://msdn.microsoft.com/en\-us/library/17w5ykft%28v=VS.100%29.aspx>.
.Sp
Here are some further observations based on experiments: The C runtime
breaks arguments at spaces and passes them to programs in argc/argv.
Double quotes can be used to prevent arguments with spaces in them from
being split up.  You can put a double quote in an argument by escaping
it with a backslash and enclosing the whole argument within double quotes.
The backslash and the pair of double quotes surrounding the argument will
be stripped by the C runtime.
.Sp
The file redirection characters \*(L"<\*(R", \*(L">\*(R", and \*(L"|\*(R" can be quoted by
double quotes (although there are suggestions that this may not always
be true).  Single quotes are not treated as quotes by the shell or
the C runtime, they don't get stripped by the shell (just to make
this type of quoting completely useless).  The caret \*(L"^\*(R" has also
been observed to behave as a quoting character, but this appears
to be a shell feature, and the caret is not stripped from the command
line, so Perl still sees it (and the C runtime phase does not treat
the caret as a quote character).
.Sp
Here are some examples of usage of the \*(L"cmd\*(R" shell:
.Sp
This prints two doublequotes:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&    perl \-e "print \*(Aq\e"\e"\*(Aq "
.Ve
.Sp
This does the same:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&    perl \-e "print \e"\e\e\e"\e\e\e"\e" "
.Ve
.Sp
This prints \*(L"bar\*(R" and writes \*(L"foo\*(R" to the file \*(L"blurch\*(R":
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&    perl \-e "print \*(Aqfoo\*(Aq; print STDERR \*(Aqbar\*(Aq" > blurch
.Ve
.Sp
This prints \*(L"foo\*(R" (\*(L"bar\*(R" disappears into nowhereland):
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&    perl \-e "print \*(Aqfoo\*(Aq; print STDERR \*(Aqbar\*(Aq" 2> nul
.Ve
.Sp
This prints \*(L"bar\*(R" and writes \*(L"foo\*(R" into the file \*(L"blurch\*(R":
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&    perl \-e "print \*(Aqfoo\*(Aq; print STDERR \*(Aqbar\*(Aq" 1> blurch
.Ve
.Sp
This pipes \*(L"foo\*(R" to the \*(L"less\*(R" pager and prints \*(L"bar\*(R" on the console:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&    perl \-e "print \*(Aqfoo\*(Aq; print STDERR \*(Aqbar\*(Aq" | less
.Ve
.Sp
This pipes \*(L"foo\enbar\en\*(R" to the less pager:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&    perl \-le "print \*(Aqfoo\*(Aq; print STDERR \*(Aqbar\*(Aq" 2>&1 | less

.Ve
.Sp
Discovering the usefulness of the \*(L"command.com\*(R" shell on Windows 9x
is left as an exercise to the reader :)
.Sp
One particularly pernicious problem with the 4NT command shell for
Windows is that it (nearly) always treats a % character as indicating
that environment variable expansion is needed.  Under this shell, it is
therefore important to always double any % characters which you want
Perl to see (for example, for hash variables), even when they are
quoted.
.IP "Building Extensions" 4
.IX Item "Building Extensions"
The Comprehensive Perl Archive Network (\s-1CPAN\s0) offers a wealth
of extensions, some of which require a C compiler to build.
Look in <https://www.cpan.org/> for more information on \s-1CPAN.\s0
.Sp
Note that not all of the extensions available from \s-1CPAN\s0 may work
in the Windows environment; you should check the information at
<https://www.cpantesters.org/> before investing too much effort into
porting modules that don't readily build.
.Sp
Most extensions (whether they require a C compiler or not) can
be built, tested and installed with the standard mantra:
.Sp
.Vb 4
\&    perl Makefile.PL
\&    $MAKE
\&    $MAKE test
\&    $MAKE install
.Ve
.Sp
where \f(CW$MAKE\fR is whatever 'make' program you have configured perl to
use.  Use \*(L"perl \-V:make\*(R" to find out what this is.  Some extensions
may not provide a testsuite (so \*(L"$MAKE test\*(R" may not do anything or
fail), but most serious ones do.
.Sp
It is important that you use a supported 'make' program, and
ensure Config.pm knows about it.
.Sp
Note that MakeMaker actually emits makefiles with different syntax
depending on what 'make' it thinks you are using.  Therefore, it is
important that one of the following values appears in Config.pm:
.Sp
.Vb 3
\&    make=\*(Aqnmake\*(Aq        # MakeMaker emits nmake syntax
\&    any other value     # MakeMaker emits generic make syntax
\&                            (e.g GNU make, or Perl make)
.Ve
.Sp
If the value doesn't match the 'make' program you want to use,
edit Config.pm to fix it.
.Sp
If a module implements XSUBs, you will need one of the supported
C compilers.  You must make sure you have set up the environment for
the compiler for command-line compilation before running \f(CW\*(C`perl Makefile.PL\*(C'\fR
or any invocation of make.
.Sp
If a module does not build for some reason, look carefully for
why it failed, and report problems to the module author.  If
it looks like the extension building support is at fault, report
that with full details of how the build failed using the GitHub
issue tracker at <https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>.
.IP "Command-line Wildcard Expansion" 4
.IX Item "Command-line Wildcard Expansion"
The default command shells on \s-1DOS\s0 descendant operating systems (such
as they are) usually do not expand wildcard arguments supplied to
programs.  They consider it the application's job to handle that.
This is commonly achieved by linking the application (in our case,
perl) with startup code that the C runtime libraries usually provide.
However, doing that results in incompatible perl versions (since the
behavior of the argv expansion code differs depending on the
compiler, and it is even buggy on some compilers).  Besides, it may
be a source of frustration if you use such a perl binary with an
alternate shell that *does* expand wildcards.
.Sp
Instead, the following solution works rather well. The nice things
about it are 1) you can start using it right away; 2) it is more
powerful, because it will do the right thing with a pattern like
*/*/*.c; 3) you can decide whether you do/don't want to use it; and
4) you can extend the method to add any customizations (or even
entirely different kinds of wildcard expansion).
.Sp
.Vb 10
\& C:\e> copy con c:\eperl\elib\eWild.pm
\& # Wild.pm \- emulate shell @ARGV expansion on shells that don\*(Aqt
\& use File::DosGlob;
\& @ARGV = map {
\&              my @g = File::DosGlob::glob($_) if /[*?]/;
\&              @g ? @g : $_;
\&            } @ARGV;

\& perl5.005/win32/perllib.c
\& perl5.005/win32/perlglob.c
\& perl5.005/win32/perllib.c
.Ve
.Sp
Note there are two distinct steps there: 1) You'll have to create
Wild.pm and put it in your perl lib directory. 2) You'll need to
set the \s-1PERL5OPT\s0 environment variable.  If you want argv expansion
to be the default, just set \s-1PERL5OPT\s0 in your default startup
environment.
.Sp
If you are using the Visual C compiler, you can get the C runtime's
command line wildcard expansion built into perl binary.  The resulting
binary will always expand unquoted command lines, which may not be
what you want if you use a shell that does that for you.  The expansion
done is also somewhat less powerful than the approach suggested above.

Perl scripts on \s-1UNIX\s0 use the \*(L"#!\*(R" (a.k.a \*(L"shebang\*(R") line to
indicate to the \s-1OS\s0 that it should execute the file using perl.
Windows has no comparable means to indicate arbitrary files are
executables.
.PP
Instead, all available methods to execute plain text files on
Windows rely on the file \*(L"extension\*(R".  There are three methods
to use this to execute perl scripts:
.IP "1." 8
There is a facility called \*(L"file extension associations\*(R".  This can be
manipulated via the two commands \*(L"assoc\*(R" and \*(L"ftype\*(R" that come
standard with Windows.  Type \*(L"ftype /?\*(R" for a complete example of how
to set this up for perl scripts (Say what?  You thought Windows
wasn't perl-ready? :).
.IP "2." 8
Since file associations don't work everywhere, and there are
reportedly bugs with file associations where it does work, the
old method of wrapping the perl script to make it look like a
regular batch file to the \s-1OS,\s0 may be used.  The install process
makes available the \*(L"pl2bat.bat\*(R" script which can be used to wrap
perl scripts into batch files.  For example:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&        pl2bat foo.pl
.Ve
.Sp
will create the file \*(L"\s-1FOO.BAT\*(R".\s0  Note \*(L"pl2bat\*(R" strips any
\&.pl suffix and adds a .bat suffix to the generated file.
.Sp
If you use the 4DOS/NT or similar command shell, note that
\&\*(L"pl2bat\*(R" uses the \*(L"%*\*(R" variable in the generated batch file to
refer to all the command line arguments, so you may need to make
sure that construct works in batch files.  As of this writing,
4DOS/NT users will need a \*(L"ParameterChar = *\*(R" statement in their
4NT.INI file or will need to execute \*(L"setdos /p*\*(R" in the 4DOS/NT
startup file to enable this to work.
.IP "3." 8
Using \*(L"pl2bat\*(R" has a few problems:  the file name gets changed,
so scripts that rely on \f(CW$0\fR to find what they must do may not
run properly; running \*(L"pl2bat\*(R" replicates the contents of the
original script, and so this process can be maintenance intensive
if the originals get updated often.  A different approach that
avoids both problems is possible.
.Sp
A script called \*(L"runperl.bat\*(R" is available that can be copied
to any filename (along with the .bat suffix).  For example,
if you call it \*(L"foo.bat\*(R", it will run the file \*(L"foo\*(R" when it is
executed.  Since you can run batch files on Windows platforms simply
by typing the name (without the extension), this effectively
runs the file \*(L"foo\*(R", when you type either \*(L"foo\*(R" or \*(L"foo.bat\*(R".
With this method, \*(L"foo.bat\*(R" can even be in a different location
than the file \*(L"foo\*(R", as long as \*(L"foo\*(R" is available somewhere on
the \s-1PATH.\s0  If your scripts are on a filesystem that allows symbolic
links, you can even avoid copying \*(L"runperl.bat\*(R".
.Sp
Here's a diversion:  copy \*(L"runperl.bat\*(R" to \*(L"runperl\*(R", and type
\&\*(L"runperl\*(R".  Explain the observed behavior, or lack thereof. :)

.IX Subsection "Miscellaneous Things"
A full set of \s-1HTML\s0 documentation is installed, so you should be
able to use it if you have a web browser installed on your
system.
.PP
\&\f(CW\*(C`perldoc\*(C'\fR is also a useful tool for browsing information contained
in the documentation, especially in conjunction with a pager
like \f(CW\*(C`less\*(C'\fR (recent versions of which have Windows support).  You may
have to set the \s-1PAGER\s0 environment variable to use a specific pager.
\&\*(L"perldoc \-f foo\*(R" will print information about the perl operator
\&\*(L"foo\*(R".
.PP
One common mistake when using this port with a \s-1GUI\s0 library like \f(CW\*(C`Tk\*(C'\fR
is assuming that Perl's normal behavior of opening a command-line
window will go away.  This isn't the case.  If you want to start a copy
of \f(CW\*(C`perl\*(C'\fR without opening a command-line window, use the \f(CW\*(C`wperl\*(C'\fR
executable built during the installation process.  Usage is exactly
the same as normal \f(CW\*(C`perl\*(C'\fR on Windows, except that options like \f(CW\*(C`\-h\*(C'\fR
don't work (since they need a command-line window to print to).

.SH "BUGS AND CAVEATS"
.IX Header "BUGS AND CAVEATS"
Norton AntiVirus interferes with the build process, particularly if
set to \*(L"AutoProtect, All Files, when Opened\*(R". Unlike large applications
the perl build process opens and modifies a lot of files. Having the
AntiVirus scan each and every one slows build the process significantly.
Worse, with PERLIO=stdio the build process fails with peculiar messages
as the virus checker interacts badly with miniperl.exe writing configure
files (it seems to either catch file part written and treat it as suspicious,
or virus checker may have it \*(L"locked\*(R" in a way which inhibits miniperl
updating it). The build does complete with
.PP
.Vb 1
\&   set PERLIO=perlio
.Ve
.PP
but that may be just luck. Other AntiVirus software may have similar issues.
.PP
A git \s-1GUI\s0 shell extension for Windows such as TortoiseGit will cause the build
and later \f(CW\*(C`make test\*(C'\fR to run much slower since every file is checked for its
git status as soon as it is created and/or modified. TortoiseGit doesn't cause
any test failures or build problems unlike the antivirus software described
above, but it does cause similar slowness. It is suggested to use Task Manager
to look for background processes which use high \s-1CPU\s0 amounts during the building
process.
.PP
Some of the built-in functions do not act exactly as documented in
perlfunc, and a few are not implemented at all.  To avoid
surprises, particularly if you have had prior exposure to Perl
in other operating environments or if you intend to write code
that will be portable to other environments, see perlport
for a reasonably definitive list of these differences.
.PP
Not all extensions available from \s-1CPAN\s0 may build or work properly
in the Windows environment.  See \*(L"Building Extensions\*(R".
.PP
Most \f(CW\*(C`socket()\*(C'\fR related calls are supported, but they may not
behave as on Unix platforms.  See perlport for the full list.
.PP
Signal handling may not behave as on Unix platforms (where it
doesn't exactly \*(L"behave\*(R", either :).  For instance, calling \f(CW\*(C`die()\*(C'\fR
or \f(CW\*(C`exit()\*(C'\fR from signal handlers will cause an exception, since most
implementations of \f(CW\*(C`signal()\*(C'\fR on Windows are severely crippled.
Thus, signals may work only for simple things like setting a flag
variable in the handler.  Using signals under this port should
currently be considered unsupported.
.PP
Please report detailed descriptions of any problems and solutions that
you may find at <<https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues>>,
along with the output produced by \f(CW\*(C`perl \-V\*(C'\fR.
