64-bit pre-built binaries for ActiveState Perl 5.8.x ?

Posted on 2009-02-12 12:37:39-08 by mor

Can IBM make available a pre-built binary for DBD:DB2 64-bit Win64 with Activestate 5.8.x and 5.10.x ?

IBM in 2009 has a link on http://www.software.ibm.com/data/db2/perl to another site that hosts a 32-bit binary installable for DBD:DB2 for Win32 and ActiveState Perl 5.8.

This is very useful but the request is to make a 64-bit binary available.

I reckon that if it is there, people will use it, and if it is absent then people will use different tools (instead of building themselves, because they may lack build tools).

Hi Mor

This is a good idea and I can build the binaries for 64 bit too. I would need to see though where to get them hosted. I dont think Univ of Winnipeg has 64 bit repositories. Give me some time and I would revert back to you about the same.
Thanks and Regards
