[mapserver-users] Problems with mapscript on win32

[Lars Holm Loldrup]

I have build a mapscript.dll for win32 and installed it in my perl
directory-structure. The
compile seems ok, but I get some warnings that can be seen below.

I the wrote a small perl script that does some spatial queries using the
mapscript.pm.
The output from the script is ok, but perl.exe dies when the script is done:

Cut from Dr. Watson window that pops up:
   Perl.exe: Exception: access violation (0xc00000005), Address: 0x10098359

Is anyone using mapscript for win32 (with success) ?, if so how was it build
?

My build system:
  Win NT4 sp3.
  ActiveState perl, v5.6.1
  MS Visual c++ 5.0
  Mapserv 3.4

My target system:
  Win NT4 sp5.

Relevant output from mapscript build (with warnings):
