ExtUtils::Command::MM.3perl

NAME

ExtUtils::Command::MM - Commands for the MM's to use in Makefiles

SYNOPSIS

   perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" -e "function" "--" arguments...
 
 

DESCRIPTION

FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY! The interface is not stable.

ExtUtils::Command::MM encapsulates code which would otherwise have to be done with large ``one'' liners.

Any $(FOO) used in the examples are make variables, not Perl.

test_harness

   test_harness($verbose, @test_libs);
 
 

Runs the tests on @ARGV via Test::Harness passing through the $verbose flag. Any @test_libs will be unshifted onto the test's @INC.

@test_libs are run in alphabetical order.

pod2man

   pod2man( '--option=value',
            $podfile1 => $manpage1,
            $podfile2 => $manpage2,
            ...
          );
 
   # or args on @ARGV
 
 

pod2man() is a function performing most of the duties of the pod2man program. Its arguments are exactly the same as pod2man as of 5.8.0 with the addition of:

     --perm_rw   octal permission to set the resulting manpage to
 
 

And the removal of:

     --verbose/-v
     --help/-h
 
 

If no arguments are given to pod2man it will read from @ARGV.

If Pod::Man is unavailable, this function will warn and return undef.

warn_if_old_packlist

   perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" -e warn_if_old_packlist <somefile>
 
 

Displays a warning that an old packlist file was found. Reads the filename from @ARGV.

perllocal_install

     perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" -e perllocal_install 
         <type> <module name> <key> <value> ...
 
     # VMS only, key|value pairs come on STDIN
     perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" -e perllocal_install
         <type> <module name> < <key>|<value> ...
 
 

Prints a fragment of POD suitable for appending to perllocal.pod. Arguments are read from @ARGV.

'type' is the type of what you're installing. Usually 'Module'.

'module name' is simply the name of your module. (Foo::Bar)

Key/value pairs are extra information about the module. Fields include:

     installed into      which directory your module was out into
     LINKTYPE            dynamic or static linking
     VERSION             module version number
     EXE_FILES           any executables installed in a space seperated 
                         list
 
 

uninstall

     perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" -e uninstall <packlist>
 
 

A wrapper around ExtUtils::Install::uninstall(). Warns that uninstallation is deprecated and doesn't actually perform the uninstallation.
