One for the Road

Well on the way home now and over lunch stop I discovered there was WiFi at the Tim Horten's so I took the opportunity to try and load in 'Padre::Plugin::Autodia' as it seemed like a good quick blog post while I am on the road as I had 'GraphViz' installed already it should go smoothly, right?

Well wrong.

Things started out fine then Padre started to recomile and after a half hour of wizing and whiring if failed.

I tried to start Padre but it never came up it was just dead. Even CPAN from a prompt would not come justs gives me this

C:\Windows\System32>cpan
Win32 object version 0.44 does not match $Win32::XS_VERSION 0.49 at C:\Dwimperl\

Well it seems I did not follow my advice from this post and have a look at the compatibility matrix first. So much for a quick and dirty post over lunch!

Oh well looks like I get to install the latest version of Padre (again).
