Installing Date::Calc

[tmryan]

Can someone explain how to install Date::Calc?

I've downloaded it and ran perl Makefile.pl.
I get this message:
Warning: prerequisite Bit::Vector failed to load: Can't locate Bit/Vector.pm in @INC (@INC contains C:/perl/lib c:/perl/site/lib .) at (eval 4) line 3.
Writing Makefile for Date::Calc
Writing patchlevel.h for c:\perl\bin\perl.exe (5.006001)

Thanks

Tim,

As mentioned in the Date::Calc documentation (

http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/mod_perl/cpan-search?dist=Date-Calc-5.0),

you need to have the Bit::Vector module installed, too.

Instead of doing this using the manual steps, try this instead:

% perl -MCPAN -e shell()
cpan> install Date::Calc

The CPAN module automatically downloads and installs additional modules when needed. For more information, please see

http://www.cpan.org/misc/cpan-faq.html#How_install_Perl_modules

and the links in that section.

Hope this helps...
