Good news everyone Firebird #Perl extension works with Strawberry

We tested Firebird perl extension and now it works with Strawberry perl (almost all the test do pass when installing the extension ) here are the steps described:

also the movie (ogv) (right click on link and save as)

Step 1 :Install firebird 2.5 run setup->next-next-next

Step 2 :Install strawberry perl

Step 3: Install flamerobin
Step 4: Download git snapshot of dbd firebird (choose the download button you can install GIT to clone dbd firebird if you want)
Step 5:compile extension
cd c:\mariuz-perl-dbd-interbase-*
(or where you downloaded the tar)
perl Makefile.PL
choose a good test db name like test
or  c:\strawberry.fdb
dmake
dmake install
Step 6 (optional): you can do the tests
create the db with flamerobin in
c:\strawberry.fdb
dmake test
Almost all test must pass (7 from 33 mostly)
That is all
Thanks Stefansbv for patches and the fork 🙂
