ExtUtils::MM_Win32 - methods to override UN*X behaviour in ExtUtils::MakeMaker
use ExtUtils::MM_Win32; # Done internally by ExtUtils::MakeMaker if needed
Perl Programmers Reference Guide ExtUtils::MM_Win32(3) NAME ExtUtils::MM_Win32 - methods to override UN*X behaviour in ExtUtils::MakeMaker SYNOPSIS use ExtUtils::MM_Win32; # Done internally by ExtUtils::MakeMaker if needed DESCRIPTION See ExtUtils::MM_Unix for a documentation of the methods provided there. This package overrides the implementation of these methods, not the semantics. Overridden methods dlsyms xs_dlsyms_ext On Win32, is ".def". replace_manpage_separator Changes the path separator with . maybe_command Since Windows has nothing as simple as an executable bit, we check the file extension. The PATHEXT env variable will be used to get a list of extensions that might indicate a command, otherwise .com, .exe, .bat and .cmd will be used by default. init_DIRFILESEP Using \ for Windows, except for "gmake" where it is /. init_tools Override some of the slower, portable commands with Windows specific ones. init_others Override the default link and compile tools. LDLOADLIBS's default is changed to $Config{libs}. Adjustments are made for Borland's quirks needing -L to come first. init_platform Add MM_Win32_VERSION. platform_constants specify_shell Set SHELL to $ENV{COMSPEC} only if make is type 'gmake'. constants Add MAXLINELENGTH for dmake before all the constants are output. special_targets Add .USESHELL target for dmake. static_lib_pure_cmd Defines how to run the archive utility dynamic_lib Methods are overridden here: not dynamic_lib itself, but the utility ones that do the OS-specific work. extra_clean_files Clean out some extra dll.{base,exp} files which might be generated by gcc. Otherwise, take out all *.pdb files. init_linker perl_script Checks for the perl program under several common perl extensions. quote_dep xs_obj_opt Override to fixup -o flags for MSVC. pasthru All we send is -nologo to nmake to prevent it from printing its damned banner. arch_check (override) Normalize all arguments for consistency of comparison. oneliner These are based on what command.com does on Win98. They may be wrong for other Windows shells, I don't know. cd dmake can handle Unix style cd'ing but nmake (at least 1.5) cannot. It wants: cd dir1\dir2 command another_command cd ..\.. max_exec_len nmake 1.50 limits command length to 2048 characters. os_flavor Windows is Win32. dbgoutflag Returns a CC flag that tells the CC to emit a separate debugging symbol file when compiling an object file. cflags Defines the PERLDLL symbol if we are configured for static building since all code destined for the perl5xx.dll must be compiled with the PERLDLL symbol defined. make_type Returns a suitable string describing the type of makefile being written.
