## Installing Perl

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language which many Symbian OS build utilities and commands require.

#### Installing Perl

- Download and install ActivePerl version 5.6.1 b638

> Software can be downloaded from: http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActivePerl/.

> NOTE Later releases of Perl are not yet supported by the Symbian utilities and can cause unknown compiling errors.
