includes a debugger, a compiler, and other essential tools for Windows Perl programmers.
In depth
The Perl debugger is a lighweight, yet full-featured debugger.
PerlApp turns Perl scripts into executables that can optionally be free-standing, enabling your scripts to be run on computers without Perl.
PerlCtrl lets you create ActiveX controls written in Perl.
PerlSvc lets you create executables that can be installed and run as a service on Windows NT and Windows, without requiring Perl on the target machine.
PerlCOM is a COM object factory that works with Perl packages, objects and bare script. PerlCOM, in conjunction with DCOM, allows you to use Perl to easily build distributed applications.
VPM (Visual Package Manager) allows you to manage your Perl installation locally or remotely. VPM is a browser-based application that lets you install, update, delete and get information about the Perl modules and extensions you have on your system.
Perl WSAPI is an embedded Perl interpreter that runs in process with the O'Reilly WebSite web server and presents a standard CGI environment for a Perl programmer. With Perl WSAPI and O'Reilly WebSite you get the benefit of not having to start a new process to handle each request for a Perl script. Scripts written to be run by perl.exe in a standard CGI environment should run without any modifications.
