340 | The extension you are trying to build apparently is rather old and |
341 | most probably outdated. We detect that from the fact, that a |
342 | subroutine "writeMakefile" is called, and this subroutine is not |
343 | supported anymore since about October 1994. |
40000a8c |
344 | |
4633a7c4 |
345 | Please contact the author or look into CPAN (details about CPAN can be |
346 | found in the FAQ and at http:/www.perl.com) for a more recent version |
347 | of the extension. If you're really desperate, you can try to change |
348 | the subroutine name from writeMakefile to WriteMakefile and rerun |
349 | 'perl Makefile.PL', but you're most probably left alone, when you do |
350 | so. |

479d2113 |
993 | ExtUtils::MakeMaker - Create a module Makefile |
005c1a0e |
994 | |
995 | =head1 SYNOPSIS |
996 | |
e0678a30 |
997 | use ExtUtils::MakeMaker; |
005c1a0e |
998 | |

8e07c86e |
1000 | |
005c1a0e |
1001 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
1002 | |
1003 | This utility is designed to write a Makefile for an extension module |
1004 | from a Makefile.PL. It is based on the Makefile.SH model provided by |
1005 | Andy Dougherty and the perl5-porters. |
1006 | |
1007 | It splits the task of generating the Makefile into several subroutines |
1008 | that can be individually overridden. Each subroutine returns the text |
1009 | it wishes to have written to the Makefile. |
1010 | |
f1387719 |
1011 | MakeMaker is object oriented. Each directory below the current |
e0678a30 |
1012 | directory that contains a Makefile.PL is treated as a separate |
f1387719 |
1013 | object. This makes it possible to write an unlimited number of |
1014 | Makefiles with a single invocation of WriteMakefile(). |

bab2b58e |
1020 | The long answer is the rest of the manpage :-) |
005c1a0e |
1021 | |
1022 | =head2 Default Makefile Behaviour |
1023 | |
f1387719 |
1024 | The generated Makefile enables the user of the extension to invoke |
005c1a0e |
1025 | |
1026 | perl Makefile.PL # optionally "perl Makefile.PL verbose" |
1027 | make |
8e07c86e |
1028 | make test # optionally set TEST_VERBOSE=1 |
1029 | make install # See below |
005c1a0e |
1030 | |
1031 | The Makefile to be produced may be altered by adding arguments of the |
e05e23b1 |
1032 | form C<KEY=VALUE>. E.g. |
005c1a0e |
1033 | |
58d32538 |
1034 | perl Makefile.PL INSTALL_BASE=~ |
005c1a0e |
1035 | |
1036 | Other interesting targets in the generated Makefile are |
1037 | |
1038 | make config # to check if the Makefile is up-to-date |
8e07c86e |
1039 | make clean # delete local temp files (Makefile gets renamed) |
1040 | make realclean # delete derived files (including ./blib) |
e05e23b1 |
1041 | make ci # check in all the files in the MANIFEST file |
005c1a0e |
1042 | make dist # see below the Distribution Support section |
1043 | |
e05e23b1 |
1044 | =head2 make test |
1045 | |
bab2b58e |
1046 | MakeMaker checks for the existence of a file named F<test.pl> in the |
d5d4ec93 |
1047 | current directory and if it exists it execute the script with the |
1048 | proper set of perl C<-I> options. |
e05e23b1 |
1049 | |
1050 | MakeMaker also checks for any files matching glob("t/*.t"). It will |
d5d4ec93 |
1051 | execute all matching files in alphabetical order via the |
1052 | L<Test::Harness> module with the C<-I> switches set correctly. |
1053 | |
1054 | If you'd like to see the raw output of your tests, set the |
1055 | C<TEST_VERBOSE> variable to true. |
1056 | |
1057 | make test TEST_VERBOSE=1 |
e05e23b1 |
1058 | |
bab2b58e |
1059 | =head2 make testdb |
1060 | |
1061 | A useful variation of the above is the target C<testdb>. It runs the |
1062 | test under the Perl debugger (see L<perldebug>). If the file |
1063 | F<test.pl> exists in the current directory, it is used for the test. |
1064 | |
d5d4ec93 |
1065 | If you want to debug some other testfile, set the C<TEST_FILE> variable |
bab2b58e |
1066 | thusly: |
1067 | |
1068 | make testdb TEST_FILE=t/mytest.t |
1069 | |
1070 | By default the debugger is called using C<-d> option to perl. If you |
d5d4ec93 |
1071 | want to specify some other option, set the C<TESTDB_SW> variable: |
bab2b58e |
1072 | |
1073 | make testdb TESTDB_SW=-Dx |
1074 | |
e05e23b1 |
1075 | =head2 make install |
005c1a0e |
1076 | |
8e07c86e |
1077 | make alone puts all relevant files into directories that are named by |
f6d6199c |
1078 | the macros INST_LIB, INST_ARCHLIB, INST_SCRIPT, INST_MAN1DIR and |
1079 | INST_MAN3DIR. All these default to something below ./blib if you are |
1080 | I<not> building below the perl source directory. If you I<are> |
1081 | building below the perl source, INST_LIB and INST_ARCHLIB default to |
1082 | ../../lib, and INST_SCRIPT is not defined. |
005c1a0e |
1083 | |
e05e23b1 |
1084 | The I<install> target of the generated Makefile copies the files found |
1085 | below each of the INST_* directories to their INSTALL* |
1086 | counterparts. Which counterparts are chosen depends on the setting of |
1087 | INSTALLDIRS according to the following table: |
005c1a0e |
1088 | |
f6d6199c |
1089 | INSTALLDIRS set to |
5c161494 |
1090 | perl site vendor |
e05e23b1 |
1091 | |
479d2113 |
1092 | PERLPREFIX SITEPREFIX VENDORPREFIX |
5c161494 |
1093 | INST_ARCHLIB INSTALLARCHLIB INSTALLSITEARCH INSTALLVENDORARCH |
1094 | INST_LIB INSTALLPRIVLIB INSTALLSITELIB INSTALLVENDORLIB |
1095 | INST_BIN INSTALLBIN INSTALLSITEBIN INSTALLVENDORBIN |
002b9267 |
1096 | INST_SCRIPT INSTALLSCRIPT INSTALLSITESCRIPT INSTALLVENDORSCRIPT |
5c161494 |
1097 | INST_MAN1DIR INSTALLMAN1DIR INSTALLSITEMAN1DIR INSTALLVENDORMAN1DIR |
1098 | INST_MAN3DIR INSTALLMAN3DIR INSTALLSITEMAN3DIR INSTALLVENDORMAN3DIR |
005c1a0e |
1099 | |
8e07c86e |
1100 | The INSTALL... macros in turn default to their %Config |
1101 | ($Config{installprivlib}, $Config{installarchlib}, etc.) counterparts. |
005c1a0e |
1102 | |
3b03c0f3 |
1103 | You can check the values of these variables on your system with |
1104 | |
bab2b58e |
1105 | perl '-V:install.*' |
3b03c0f3 |
1106 | |
f1387719 |
1107 | And to check the sequence in which the library directories are |
1108 | searched by perl, run |
005c1a0e |
1109 | |
f1387719 |
1110 | perl -le 'print join $/, @INC' |
005c1a0e |
1111 | |
a7d1454b |
1112 | Sometimes older versions of the module you're installing live in other |
1113 | directories in @INC. Because Perl loads the first version of a module it |
1114 | finds, not the newest, you might accidentally get one of these older |
1115 | versions even after installing a brand new version. To delete I<all other |
1116 | versions of the module you're installing> (not simply older ones) set the |
1117 | C<UNINST> variable. |
1118 | |
1119 | make install UNINST=1 |

1122 | =head2 INSTALL_BASE |
1123 | |
1124 | INSTALL_BASE can be passed into Makefile.PL to change where your |
1125 | module will be installed. INSTALL_BASE is more like what everyone |
1126 | else calls "prefix" than PREFIX is. |
1127 | |
1128 | To have everything installed in your home directory, do the following. |
1129 | |
1e65eb70 |
1130 | # Unix users, INSTALL_BASE=~ works fine |
1131 | perl Makefile.PL INSTALL_BASE=/path/to/your/home/dir |
58d32538 |
1132 | |
1133 | Like PREFIX, it sets several INSTALL* attributes at once. Unlike |
1134 | PREFIX it is easy to predict where the module will end up. The |
1135 | installation pattern looks like this: |
1136 | |
1137 | INSTALLARCHLIB INSTALL_BASE/lib/perl5/$Config{archname} |
1138 | INSTALLPRIVLIB INSTALL_BASE/lib/perl5 |
1139 | INSTALLBIN INSTALL_BASE/bin |
1140 | INSTALLSCRIPT INSTALL_BASE/bin |
1141 | INSTALLMAN1DIR INSTALL_BASE/man/man1 |
1142 | INSTALLMAN3DIR INSTALL_BASE/man/man3 |
1143 | |
1144 | INSTALL_BASE in MakeMaker and C<--install_base> in Module::Build (as |
1145 | of 0.28) install to the same location. If you want MakeMaker and |
1146 | Module::Build to install to the same location simply set INSTALL_BASE |
1147 | and C<--install_base> to the same location. |
1148 | |
1149 | INSTALL_BASE was added in 6.31. |
1150 | |
1151 | |
bab2b58e |
1152 | =head2 PREFIX and LIB attribute |
1153 | |
1154 | PREFIX and LIB can be used to set several INSTALL* attributes in one |
58d32538 |
1155 | go. Here's an example for installing into your home directory. |
bab2b58e |
1156 | |
1e65eb70 |
1157 | # Unix users, PREFIX=~ works fine |
1158 | perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/path/to/your/home/dir |
005c1a0e |
1159 | |
f6d6199c |
1160 | This will install all files in the module under your home directory, |
1161 | with man pages and libraries going into an appropriate place (usually |
58d32538 |
1162 | ~/man and ~/lib). How the exact location is determined is complicated |
1163 | and depends on how your Perl was configured. INSTALL_BASE works more |
1164 | like what other build systems call "prefix" than PREFIX and we |
1165 | recommend you use that instead. |
bab2b58e |
1166 | |
1167 | Another way to specify many INSTALL directories with a single |
f6d6199c |
1168 | parameter is LIB. |
005c1a0e |
1169 | |
f6d6199c |
1170 | perl Makefile.PL LIB=~/lib |
005c1a0e |
1171 | |
f6d6199c |
1172 | This will install the module's architecture-independent files into |
1173 | ~/lib, the architecture-dependent files into ~/lib/$archname. |
005c1a0e |
1174 | |
bab2b58e |
1175 | Note, that in both cases the tilde expansion is done by MakeMaker, not |
e35b8f9e |
1176 | by perl by default, nor by make. |
1177 | |
f6d6199c |
1178 | Conflicts between parameters LIB, PREFIX and the various INSTALL* |
1179 | arguments are resolved so that: |
e35b8f9e |
1180 | |
1181 | =over 4 |
1182 | |
1183 | =item * |
1184 | |
1185 | setting LIB overrides any setting of INSTALLPRIVLIB, INSTALLARCHLIB, |
1186 | INSTALLSITELIB, INSTALLSITEARCH (and they are not affected by PREFIX); |
1187 | |
1188 | =item * |
1189 | |
1190 | without LIB, setting PREFIX replaces the initial C<$Config{prefix}> |
1191 | part of those INSTALL* arguments, even if the latter are explicitly |
1192 | set (but are set to still start with C<$Config{prefix}>). |
1193 | |
1194 | =back |
005c1a0e |
1195 | |
f6d6199c |
1196 | If the user has superuser privileges, and is not working on AFS or |
1197 | relatives, then the defaults for INSTALLPRIVLIB, INSTALLARCHLIB, |
1198 | INSTALLSCRIPT, etc. will be appropriate, and this incantation will be |
1199 | the best: |
005c1a0e |
1200 | |
e0678a30 |
1201 | perl Makefile.PL; |
1202 | make; |
1203 | make test |
005c1a0e |
1204 | make install |
1205 | |
8e07c86e |
1206 | make install per default writes some documentation of what has been |
e05e23b1 |
1207 | done into the file C<$(INSTALLARCHLIB)/perllocal.pod>. This feature |
1208 | can be bypassed by calling make pure_install. |
8e07c86e |
1209 | |
1210 | =head2 AFS users |
1211 | |
1212 | will have to specify the installation directories as these most |
1213 | probably have changed since perl itself has been installed. They will |
1214 | have to do this by calling |
1215 | |
e05e23b1 |
1216 | perl Makefile.PL INSTALLSITELIB=/afs/here/today \ |
f6d6199c |
1217 | INSTALLSCRIPT=/afs/there/now INSTALLMAN3DIR=/afs/for/manpages |
8e07c86e |
1218 | make |
1219 | |
e05e23b1 |
1220 | Be careful to repeat this procedure every time you recompile an |
1221 | extension, unless you are sure the AFS installation directories are |
1222 | still valid. |
005c1a0e |
1223 | |
8e07c86e |
1224 | =head2 Static Linking of a new Perl Binary |
005c1a0e |
1225 | |
1226 | An extension that is built with the above steps is ready to use on |
1227 | systems supporting dynamic loading. On systems that do not support |
1228 | dynamic loading, any newly created extension has to be linked together |
1229 | with the available resources. MakeMaker supports the linking process |
1230 | by creating appropriate targets in the Makefile whenever an extension |
1231 | is built. You can invoke the corresponding section of the makefile with |
1232 | |
1233 | make perl |
1234 | |
1235 | That produces a new perl binary in the current directory with all |
da7f727a |
1236 | extensions linked in that can be found in INST_ARCHLIB, SITELIBEXP, |
e05e23b1 |
1237 | and PERL_ARCHLIB. To do that, MakeMaker writes a new Makefile, on |
1238 | UNIX, this is called Makefile.aperl (may be system dependent). If you |
1239 | want to force the creation of a new perl, it is recommended, that you |
1240 | delete this Makefile.aperl, so the directories are searched-through |
1241 | for linkable libraries again. |
005c1a0e |
1242 | |
1243 | The binary can be installed into the directory where perl normally |
1244 | resides on your machine with |
1245 | |
1246 | make inst_perl |
1247 | |
1248 | To produce a perl binary with a different name than C<perl>, either say |
1249 | |
1250 | perl Makefile.PL MAP_TARGET=myperl |
1251 | make myperl |
1252 | make inst_perl |
1253 | |
1254 | or say |
1255 | |
1256 | perl Makefile.PL |
1257 | make myperl MAP_TARGET=myperl |
1258 | make inst_perl MAP_TARGET=myperl |
1259 | |
1260 | In any case you will be prompted with the correct invocation of the |
1261 | C<inst_perl> target that installs the new binary into INSTALLBIN. |
1262 | |
8e07c86e |
1263 | make inst_perl per default writes some documentation of what has been |
1264 | done into the file C<$(INSTALLARCHLIB)/perllocal.pod>. This |
1265 | can be bypassed by calling make pure_inst_perl. |
005c1a0e |
1266 | |
e05e23b1 |
1267 | Warning: the inst_perl: target will most probably overwrite your |
1268 | existing perl binary. Use with care! |
005c1a0e |
1269 | |
8e07c86e |
1270 | Sometimes you might want to build a statically linked perl although |
1271 | your system supports dynamic loading. In this case you may explicitly |
1272 | set the linktype with the invocation of the Makefile.PL or make: |
1273 | |
1274 | perl Makefile.PL LINKTYPE=static # recommended |
1275 | |
1276 | or |
1277 | |
1278 | make LINKTYPE=static # works on most systems |
1279 | |
005c1a0e |
1280 | =head2 Determination of Perl Library and Installation Locations |
1281 | |
1282 | MakeMaker needs to know, or to guess, where certain things are |
e05e23b1 |
1283 | located. Especially INST_LIB and INST_ARCHLIB (where to put the files |
1284 | during the make(1) run), PERL_LIB and PERL_ARCHLIB (where to read |
1285 | existing modules from), and PERL_INC (header files and C<libperl*.*>). |
005c1a0e |
1286 | |
1287 | Extensions may be built either using the contents of the perl source |
e05e23b1 |
1288 | directory tree or from the installed perl library. The recommended way |
1289 | is to build extensions after you have run 'make install' on perl |
1290 | itself. You can do that in any directory on your hard disk that is not |
1291 | below the perl source tree. The support for extensions below the ext |
1292 | directory of the perl distribution is only good for the standard |
1293 | extensions that come with perl. |
005c1a0e |
1294 | |
1295 | If an extension is being built below the C<ext/> directory of the perl |
e05e23b1 |
1296 | source then MakeMaker will set PERL_SRC automatically (e.g., |
1297 | C<../..>). If PERL_SRC is defined and the extension is recognized as |
1298 | a standard extension, then other variables default to the following: |
005c1a0e |
1299 | |
1300 | PERL_INC = PERL_SRC |
1301 | PERL_LIB = PERL_SRC/lib |
1302 | PERL_ARCHLIB = PERL_SRC/lib |
1303 | INST_LIB = PERL_LIB |
1304 | INST_ARCHLIB = PERL_ARCHLIB |
1305 | |
1306 | If an extension is being built away from the perl source then MakeMaker |
1307 | will leave PERL_SRC undefined and default to using the installed copy |
1308 | of the perl library. The other variables default to the following: |
1309 | |
e05e23b1 |
1310 | PERL_INC = $archlibexp/CORE |
1311 | PERL_LIB = $privlibexp |
1312 | PERL_ARCHLIB = $archlibexp |
1313 | INST_LIB = ./blib/lib |
1314 | INST_ARCHLIB = ./blib/arch |
005c1a0e |
1315 | |
1316 | If perl has not yet been installed then PERL_SRC can be defined on the |
1317 | command line as shown in the previous section. |
1318 | |
005c1a0e |
1319 | |
f1387719 |
1320 | =head2 Which architecture dependent directory? |
005c1a0e |
1321 | |
f1387719 |
1322 | If you don't want to keep the defaults for the INSTALL* macros, |
1323 | MakeMaker helps you to minimize the typing needed: the usual |
1324 | relationship between INSTALLPRIVLIB and INSTALLARCHLIB is determined |
1325 | by Configure at perl compilation time. MakeMaker supports the user who |
1326 | sets INSTALLPRIVLIB. If INSTALLPRIVLIB is set, but INSTALLARCHLIB not, |
1327 | then MakeMaker defaults the latter to be the same subdirectory of |
1328 | INSTALLPRIVLIB as Configure decided for the counterparts in %Config , |
1329 | otherwise it defaults to INSTALLPRIVLIB. The same relationship holds |
1330 | for INSTALLSITELIB and INSTALLSITEARCH. |
005c1a0e |
1331 | |
f1387719 |
1332 | MakeMaker gives you much more freedom than needed to configure |
1333 | internal variables and get different results. It is worth to mention, |
1334 | that make(1) also lets you configure most of the variables that are |
1335 | used in the Makefile. But in the majority of situations this will not |
a7665c5e |
1336 | be necessary, and should only be done if the author of a package |
f1387719 |
1337 | recommends it (or you know what you're doing). |

1340 | |
a884ca7c |
1341 | The following attributes may be specified as arguments to WriteMakefile() |
1342 | or as NAME=VALUE pairs on the command line. |
005c1a0e |
1343 | |
875fa795 |

005c1a0e |
1345 | |
875fa795 |
1346 | =item ABSTRACT |
1347 | |
1348 | One line description of the module. Will be included in PPD file. |
1349 | |
1350 | =item ABSTRACT_FROM |
1351 | |
1352 | Name of the file that contains the package description. MakeMaker looks |
1353 | for a line in the POD matching /^($package\s-\s)(.*)/. This is typically |
1354 | the first line in the "=head1 NAME" section. $2 becomes the abstract. |
1355 | |
e35b8f9e |
1356 | =item AUTHOR |
1357 | |
1358 | String containing name (and email address) of package author(s). Is used |
1359 | in PPD (Perl Package Description) files for PPM (Perl Package Manager). |
1360 | |
875fa795 |
1361 | =item BINARY_LOCATION |
1362 | |
1363 | Used when creating PPD files for binary packages. It can be set to a |
1364 | full or relative path or URL to the binary archive for a particular |
1365 | architecture. For example: |
1366 | |
f6d6199c |
1367 | perl Makefile.PL BINARY_LOCATION=x86/Agent.tar.gz |
875fa795 |
1368 | |
1369 | builds a PPD package that references a binary of the C<Agent> package, |
20e08411 |
1370 | located in the C<x86> directory relative to the PPD itself. |
8e07c86e |
1371 | |
864a5fa8 |
1372 | =item C |
8e07c86e |
1373 | |
864a5fa8 |
1374 | Ref to array of *.c file names. Initialised from a directory scan |
1375 | and the values portion of the XS attribute hash. This is not |
1376 | currently used by MakeMaker but may be handy in Makefile.PLs. |
8e07c86e |
1377 | |
84902520 |
1378 | =item CCFLAGS |
1379 | |
1380 | String that will be included in the compiler call command line between |
1381 | the arguments INC and OPTIMIZE. |
1382 | |
864a5fa8 |
1383 | =item CONFIG |
8e07c86e |
1384 | |
864a5fa8 |
1385 | Arrayref. E.g. [qw(archname manext)] defines ARCHNAME & MANEXT from |
1386 | config.sh. MakeMaker will add to CONFIG the following values anyway: |
1387 | ar |
1388 | cc |
1389 | cccdlflags |
1390 | ccdlflags |
1391 | dlext |
1392 | dlsrc |

8e07c86e |
1403 | |
1404 | =item CONFIGURE |
1405 | |
e05e23b1 |
1406 | CODE reference. The subroutine should return a hash reference. The |
1fef88e7 |
1407 | hash may contain further attributes, e.g. {LIBS =E<gt> ...}, that have to |
8e07c86e |
1408 | be determined by some evaluation method. |

8e07c86e |
1413 | |
479d2113 |
1414 | =item DESTDIR |
1415 | |
1416 | This is the root directory into which the code will be installed. It |
1417 | I<prepends itself to the normal prefix>. For example, if your code |
5dca256e |
1418 | would normally go into F</usr/local/lib/perl> you could set DESTDIR=~/tmp/ |
1419 | and installation would go into F<~/tmp/usr/local/lib/perl>. |
479d2113 |
1420 | |
1421 | This is primarily of use for people who repackage Perl modules. |
1422 | |
531e2ba1 |
1423 | NOTE: Due to the nature of make, it is important that you put the trailing |
5dca256e |
1424 | slash on your DESTDIR. F<~/tmp/> not F<~/tmp>. |
479d2113 |
1425 | |

864a5fa8 |
1431 | =item DISTNAME |
8e07c86e |
1432 | |
479d2113 |
1433 | A safe filename for the package. |
1434 | |
1435 | Defaults to NAME above but with :: replaced with -. |
1436 | |
1437 | For example, Foo::Bar becomes Foo-Bar. |
1438 | |
1439 | =item DISTVNAME |
1440 | |
1441 | Your name for distributing the package with the version number |
1442 | included. This is used by 'make dist' to name the resulting archive |
1443 | file. |
1444 | |
1445 | Defaults to DISTNAME-VERSION. |
1446 | |
1447 | For example, version 1.04 of Foo::Bar becomes Foo-Bar-1.04. |
1448 | |
1449 | On some OS's where . has special meaning VERSION_SYM may be used in |
1450 | place of VERSION. |
8e07c86e |
1451 | |
864a5fa8 |
1452 | =item DL_FUNCS |
8e07c86e |
1453 | |
875fa795 |
1454 | Hashref of symbol names for routines to be made available as universal |
1455 | symbols. Each key/value pair consists of the package name and an |
1456 | array of routine names in that package. Used only under AIX, OS/2, |
1457 | VMS and Win32 at present. The routine names supplied will be expanded |
1458 | in the same way as XSUB names are expanded by the XS() macro. |
1459 | Defaults to |
8e07c86e |
1460 | |
864a5fa8 |
1461 | {"$(NAME)" => ["boot_$(NAME)" ] } |
8e07c86e |
1462 | |
864a5fa8 |
1463 | e.g. |
8e07c86e |
1464 | |
864a5fa8 |
1465 | {"RPC" => [qw( boot_rpcb rpcb_gettime getnetconfigent )], |
1466 | "NetconfigPtr" => [ 'DESTROY'] } |

1467 | |
875fa795 |
1468 | Please see the L<ExtUtils::Mksymlists> documentation for more information |
1469 | about the DL_FUNCS, DL_VARS and FUNCLIST attributes. |
1470 | |
864a5fa8 |
1471 | =item DL_VARS |
8e07c86e |
1472 | |
875fa795 |
1473 | Array of symbol names for variables to be made available as universal symbols. |
1474 | Used only under AIX, OS/2, VMS and Win32 at present. Defaults to []. |
1475 | (e.g. [ qw(Foo_version Foo_numstreams Foo_tree ) ]) |
8e07c86e |
1476 | |
f1387719 |
1477 | =item EXCLUDE_EXT |
1478 | |
1479 | Array of extension names to exclude when doing a static build. This |
1480 | is ignored if INCLUDE_EXT is present. Consult INCLUDE_EXT for more |
1481 | details. (e.g. [ qw( Socket POSIX ) ] ) |
1482 | |
1483 | This attribute may be most useful when specified as a string on the |
de592821 |
1484 | command line: perl Makefile.PL EXCLUDE_EXT='Socket Safe' |
f1387719 |
1485 | |
864a5fa8 |
1486 | =item EXE_FILES |
8e07c86e |
1487 | |
864a5fa8 |
1488 | Ref to array of executable files. The files will be copied to the |
f1387719 |
1489 | INST_SCRIPT directory. Make realclean will delete them from there |
864a5fa8 |
1490 | again. |
8e07c86e |
1491 | |
2530b651 |
1492 | If your executables start with something like #!perl or |
1493 | #!/usr/bin/perl MakeMaker will change this to the path of the perl |
1494 | 'Makefile.PL' was invoked with so the programs will be sure to run |
1495 | properly even if perl is not in /usr/bin/perl. |
1496 | |
864a5fa8 |
1497 | =item FIRST_MAKEFILE |
1498 | |
479d2113 |
1499 | The name of the Makefile to be produced. This is used for the second |
1500 | Makefile that will be produced for the MAP_TARGET. |
1501 | |
1502 | Defaults to 'Makefile' or 'Descrip.MMS' on VMS. |
1503 | |
1504 | (Note: we couldn't use MAKEFILE because dmake uses this for something |
1505 | else). |
864a5fa8 |

1519 | =item FUNCLIST |
1520 | |
1521 | This provides an alternate means to specify function names to be |
1522 | exported from the extension. Its value is a reference to an |
1523 | array of function names to be exported by the extension. These |
1524 | names are passed through unaltered to the linker options file. |

1541 | =item INCLUDE_EXT |
1542 | |
1543 | Array of extension names to be included when doing a static build. |
1544 | MakeMaker will normally build with all of the installed extensions when |
1545 | doing a static build, and that is usually the desired behavior. If |
1546 | INCLUDE_EXT is present then MakeMaker will build only with those extensions |
1547 | which are explicitly mentioned. (e.g. [ qw( Socket POSIX ) ]) |
1548 | |
1549 | It is not necessary to mention DynaLoader or the current extension when |
1550 | filling in INCLUDE_EXT. If the INCLUDE_EXT is mentioned but is empty then |
1551 | only DynaLoader and the current extension will be included in the build. |
1552 | |
1553 | This attribute may be most useful when specified as a string on the |
de592821 |
1554 | command line: perl Makefile.PL INCLUDE_EXT='POSIX Socket Devel::Peek' |

1718 | |
1719 | 'LIBS' => ["-lgdbm", "-ldbm -lfoo", "-L/path -ldbm.nfs"] |
1720 | |
1721 | Mind, that any element of the array |
1722 | contains a complete set of arguments for the ld |
1723 | command. So do not specify |
1724 | |
1725 | 'LIBS' => ["-ltcl", "-ltk", "-lX11"] |
1726 | |
1727 | See ODBM_File/Makefile.PL for an example, where an array is needed. If |
1728 | you specify a scalar as in |
1729 | |
1730 | 'LIBS' => "-ltcl -ltk -lX11" |
1731 | |
1732 | MakeMaker will turn it into an array with one element. |

2977d345 |
1749 | =item MAKE |
1750 | |
1751 | Variant of make you intend to run the generated Makefile with. This |
1752 | parameter lets Makefile.PL know what make quirks to account for when |
1753 | generating the Makefile. |
1754 | |
1755 | MakeMaker also honors the MAKE environment variable. This parameter |
1756 | takes precedent. |
1757 | |
1758 | Currently the only significant values are 'dmake' and 'nmake' for Windows |
1759 | users. |

1776 | =item MAN1PODS |
8e07c86e |
1777 | |
864a5fa8 |
1778 | Hashref of pod-containing files. MakeMaker will default this to all |
1779 | EXE_FILES files that include POD directives. The files listed |
1780 | here will be converted to man pages and installed as was requested |
1781 | at Configure time. |
8e07c86e |
1782 | |
864a5fa8 |
1783 | =item MAN3PODS |

1784 | |
bfa2a9ad |
1785 | Hashref that assigns to *.pm and *.pod files the files into which the |
1786 | manpages are to be written. MakeMaker parses all *.pod and *.pm files |
1787 | for POD directives. Files that contain POD will be the default keys of |
1788 | the MAN3PODS hashref. These will then be converted to man pages during |
1789 | C<make> and will be installed during C<make install>. |

1807 | =item NEEDS_LINKING |
8e07c86e |
1808 | |
a7665c5e |
1809 | MakeMaker will figure out if an extension contains linkable code |
864a5fa8 |
1810 | anywhere down the directory tree, and will set this variable |
a7665c5e |
1811 | accordingly, but you can speed it up a very little bit if you define |
864a5fa8 |
1812 | this boolean variable yourself. |

762efda7 |
1837 | MakeMaker and the version the Makefile was built under. If NO_VC is |
1838 | set, the version check is neglected. Do not write this into your |
1839 | Makefile.PL, use it interactively instead. |
1840 | |
864a5fa8 |
1841 | =item OBJECT |
8e07c86e |
1842 | |
864a5fa8 |
1843 | List of object files, defaults to '$(BASEEXT)$(OBJ_EXT)', but can be a long |
1844 | string containing all object files, e.g. "tkpBind.o |
1845 | tkpButton.o tkpCanvas.o" |
8e07c86e |
1846 | |

1870 | Same as for PERL_LIB, but for architecture dependent files. |
1871 | |
1872 | Used only when MakeMaker is building the extensions of the Perl core |
1873 | distribution (because normally $(PERL_ARCHLIB) is automatically in @INC, |

e35b8f9e |
1884 | =item PERL_MALLOC_OK |
1885 | |
1886 | defaults to 0. Should be set to TRUE if the extension can work with |
1887 | the memory allocation routines substituted by the Perl malloc() subsystem. |

1905 | =back |
1906 | |
1907 | B<NOTE.> Negligence to set this flag in I<any one> of loaded extension |
1908 | nullifies many advantages of Perl's malloc(), such as better usage of |
1909 | system resources, error detection, memory usage reporting, catchable failure |
1910 | of memory allocations, etc. |
1911 | |
479d2113 |

8e07c86e |
1949 | |
7292dc67 |
1950 | MakeMaker can run programs to generate files for you at build time. |
1951 | By default any file named *.PL (except Makefile.PL and Build.PL) in |
1952 | the top level directory will be assumed to be a Perl program and run |
1953 | passing its own basename in as an argument. For example... |
1954 | |
1955 | perl foo.PL foo |
1956 | |
1957 | This behavior can be overridden by supplying your own set of files to |
1958 | search. PL_FILES accepts a hash ref, the key being the file to run |
1959 | and the value is passed in as the first argument when the PL file is run. |
1960 | |
41e5fcb0 |
1961 | PL_FILES => {'bin/foobar.PL' => 'bin/foobar'} |
7292dc67 |
1962 | |
1963 | Would run bin/foobar.PL like this: |
1964 | |
1965 | perl bin/foobar.PL bin/foobar |
1966 | |
1967 | If multiple files from one program are desired an array ref can be used. |
1968 | |
41e5fcb0 |
1969 | PL_FILES => {'bin/foobar.PL' => [qw(bin/foobar1 bin/foobar2)]} |
8e07c86e |
1970 | |
7292dc67 |
1971 | In this case the program will be run multiple times using each target file. |

1976 | PL files are normally run B<after> pm_to_blib and include INST_LIB and |
1977 | INST_ARCH in its C<@INC> so the just built modules can be |
1978 | accessed... unless the PL file is making a module (or anything else in |
1979 | PM) in which case it is run B<before> pm_to_blib and does not include |
1980 | INST_LIB and INST_ARCH in its C<@INC>. This apparently odd behavior |
1981 | is there for backwards compatibility (and its somewhat DWIM). |

1990 | By default this will include *.pm and *.pl and the files found in |

8e07c86e |

864a5fa8 |
1996 | Ref to array of subdirectories containing library files. Defaults to |
a3cb178b |
1997 | [ 'lib', $(BASEEXT) ]. The directories will be scanned and I<any> files |
864a5fa8 |
1998 | they contain will be installed in the corresponding location in the |
1999 | library. A libscan() method can be used to alter the behaviour. |
2000 | Defining PM in the Makefile.PL will override PMLIBDIRS. |

131aa089 |
2004 | =item PM_FILTER |
2005 | |
2006 | A filter program, in the traditional Unix sense (input from stdin, output |
2007 | to stdout) that is passed on each .pm file during the build (in the |
2008 | pm_to_blib() phase). It is empty by default, meaning no filtering is done. |
2009 | |
2010 | Great care is necessary when defining the command if quoting needs to be |
2011 | done. For instance, you would need to say: |
2012 | |
2013 | {'PM_FILTER' => 'grep -v \\"^\\#\\"'} |
2014 | |
3c4b39be |
2015 | to remove all the leading comments on the fly during the build. The |
131aa089 |
2016 | extra \\ are necessary, unfortunately, because this variable is interpolated |
2017 | within the context of a Perl program built on the command line, and double |
2018 | quotes are what is used with the -e switch to build that command line. The |
2019 | # is escaped for the Makefile, since what is going to be generated will then |
2020 | be: |
2021 | |
2022 | PM_FILTER = grep -v \"^\#\" |
2023 | |
2024 | Without the \\ before the #, we'd have the start of a Makefile comment, |
2025 | and the macro would be incorrectly defined. |

2052 | guess about where to place things under the new PREFIX based on your |
2053 | Config defaults. Failing that, it will fall back to a structure |
2054 | which should be sensible for your platform. |
2055 | |

2152 | =item VERSION_FROM |
2153 | |
2154 | Instead of specifying the VERSION in the Makefile.PL you can let |
2155 | MakeMaker parse a file to determine the version number. The parsing |
2156 | routine requires that the file named by VERSION_FROM contains one |
2157 | single line to compute the version number. The first line in the file |
2158 | that contains the regular expression |
2159 | |
84902520 |
2160 | /([\$*])(([\w\:\']*)\bVERSION)\b.*\=/ |
0d8023a2 |
2161 | |
2162 | will be evaluated with eval() and the value of the named variable |
2163 | B<after> the eval() will be assigned to the VERSION attribute of the |
2164 | MakeMaker object. The following lines will be parsed o.k.: |
2165 | |
2166 | $VERSION = '1.00'; |
84902520 |

2171 | our $VERSION = 1.2.3; # new for perl5.6.0 |

e35b8f9e |
2179 | (Putting C<my> or C<local> on the preceding line will work o.k.) |
2180 | |
84902520 |
2181 | The file named in VERSION_FROM is not added as a dependency to |
2182 | Makefile. This is not really correct, but it would be a major pain |
2183 | during development to have to rewrite the Makefile for any smallish |
2184 | change in that file. If you want to make sure that the Makefile |
2185 | contains the correct VERSION macro after any change of the file, you |
2186 | would have to do something like |
2187 | |
2188 | depend => { Makefile => '$(VERSION_FROM)' } |

2314 | other applications, you might find MakeMaker is not sufficient. You'd |
2315 | better have a look at ExtUtils::Embed which is a collection of utilities |
2316 | for embedding. |

2325 | Here is a simple example of how to add a new target to the generated |
2326 | Makefile: |
2327 | |
2328 | sub MY::postamble { |
e0678a30 |
2329 | return <<'MAKE_FRAG'; |
3b03c0f3 |
2330 | $(MYEXTLIB): sdbm/Makefile |
f6d6199c |
2331 | cd sdbm && $(MAKE) all |
e0678a30 |

2334 | } |

2336 | =head2 The End Of Cargo Cult Programming |
2337 | |
2338 | WriteMakefile() now does some basic sanity checks on its parameters to |
2339 | protect against typos and malformatted values. This means some things |
2340 | which happened to work in the past will now throw warnings and |
2341 | possibly produce internal errors. |
2342 | |
2343 | Some of the most common mistakes: |
2344 | |
2345 | =over 2 |
2346 | |
76ca89ed |
2347 | =item C<< MAN3PODS => ' ' >> |
a884ca7c |
2348 | |
3c4b39be |
2349 | This is commonly used to suppress the creation of man pages. MAN3PODS |
a884ca7c |
2350 | takes a hash ref not a string, but the above worked by accident in old |
2351 | versions of MakeMaker. |
2352 | |
76ca89ed |
2353 | The correct code is C<< MAN3PODS => { } >>. |

2358 | =head2 Hintsfile support |
2359 | |
2360 | MakeMaker.pm uses the architecture specific information from |
2361 | Config.pm. In addition it evaluates architecture specific hints files |
2362 | in a C<hints/> directory. The hints files are expected to be named |
2363 | like their counterparts in C<PERL_SRC/hints>, but with an C<.pl> file |
2364 | name extension (eg. C<next_3_2.pl>). They are simply C<eval>ed by |
2365 | MakeMaker within the WriteMakefile() subroutine, and can be used to |
2366 | execute commands as well as to include special variables. The rules |
2367 | which hintsfile is chosen are the same as in Configure. |
2368 | |
2369 | The hintsfile is eval()ed immediately after the arguments given to |
2370 | WriteMakefile are stuffed into a hash reference $self but before this |
2371 | reference becomes blessed. So if you want to do the equivalent to |
2372 | override or create an attribute you would say something like |
2373 | |
2374 | $self->{LIBS} = ['-ldbm -lucb -lc']; |
2375 | |

2376 | =head2 Distribution Support |
2377 | |
2378 | For authors of extensions MakeMaker provides several Makefile |
2379 | targets. Most of the support comes from the ExtUtils::Manifest module, |
2380 | where additional documentation can be found. |
2381 | |
2382 | =over 4 |
2383 | |
2384 | =item make distcheck |
8e07c86e |
2385 | |
005c1a0e |
2386 | reports which files are below the build directory but not in the |
2387 | MANIFEST file and vice versa. (See ExtUtils::Manifest::fullcheck() for |
2388 | details) |
2389 | |
4633a7c4 |
2390 | =item make skipcheck |
2391 | |
2392 | reports which files are skipped due to the entries in the |
2393 | C<MANIFEST.SKIP> file (See ExtUtils::Manifest::skipcheck() for |
2394 | details) |
2395 | |
005c1a0e |
2396 | =item make distclean |
8e07c86e |
2397 | |
005c1a0e |
2398 | does a realclean first and then the distcheck. Note that this is not |
a7665c5e |
2399 | needed to build a new distribution as long as you are sure that the |
005c1a0e |
2400 | MANIFEST file is ok. |
2401 | |
2402 | =item make manifest |
8e07c86e |
2403 | |
005c1a0e |
2404 | rewrites the MANIFEST file, adding all remaining files found (See |
2405 | ExtUtils::Manifest::mkmanifest() for details) |
2406 | |
2407 | =item make distdir |
8e07c86e |
2408 | |
005c1a0e |
2409 | Copies all the files that are in the MANIFEST file to a newly created |
2410 | directory with the name C<$(DISTNAME)-$(VERSION)>. If that directory |
2411 | exists, it will be removed first. |
2412 | |
7292dc67 |
2413 | Additionally, it will create a META.yml module meta-data file in the |
2414 | distdir and add this to the distdir's MANFIEST. You can shut this |
2415 | behavior off with the NO_META flag. |
1df8d179 |
2416 | |
f6d6199c |
2417 | =item make disttest |
8e07c86e |
2418 | |
2419 | Makes a distdir first, and runs a C<perl Makefile.PL>, a make, and |
4633a7c4 |
2420 | a make test in that directory. |
8e07c86e |
2421 | |
005c1a0e |
2422 | =item make tardist |
8e07c86e |
2423 | |
3b03c0f3 |
2424 | First does a distdir. Then a command $(PREOP) which defaults to a null |
f1387719 |
2425 | command, followed by $(TOUNIX), which defaults to a null command under |
2426 | UNIX, and will convert files in distribution directory to UNIX format |
2427 | otherwise. Next it runs C<tar> on that directory into a tarfile and |
3b03c0f3 |
2428 | deletes the directory. Finishes with a command $(POSTOP) which |
2429 | defaults to a null command. |
005c1a0e |
2430 | |
2431 | =item make dist |
8e07c86e |
2432 | |
005c1a0e |
2433 | Defaults to $(DIST_DEFAULT) which in turn defaults to tardist. |
2434 | |
2435 | =item make uutardist |
8e07c86e |
2436 | |
005c1a0e |
2437 | Runs a tardist first and uuencodes the tarfile. |
2438 | |
2439 | =item make shdist |
8e07c86e |
2440 | |
3b03c0f3 |
2441 | First does a distdir. Then a command $(PREOP) which defaults to a null |
2442 | command. Next it runs C<shar> on that directory into a sharfile and |
2443 | deletes the intermediate directory again. Finishes with a command |
2444 | $(POSTOP) which defaults to a null command. Note: For shdist to work |
2445 | properly a C<shar> program that can handle directories is mandatory. |
2446 | |
2447 | =item make zipdist |
2448 | |
2449 | First does a distdir. Then a command $(PREOP) which defaults to a null |
2450 | command. Runs C<$(ZIP) $(ZIPFLAGS)> on that directory into a |
2451 | zipfile. Then deletes that directory. Finishes with a command |
2452 | $(POSTOP) which defaults to a null command. |
005c1a0e |
2453 | |
2454 | =item make ci |
8e07c86e |
2455 | |
2456 | Does a $(CI) and a $(RCS_LABEL) on all files in the MANIFEST file. |
2457 | |
2458 | =back |
005c1a0e |
2459 | |
2460 | Customization of the dist targets can be done by specifying a hash |
2461 | reference to the dist attribute of the WriteMakefile call. The |
2462 | following parameters are recognized: |
2463 | |
8e07c86e |
2464 | CI ('ci -u') |
5f8e730b |
2465 | COMPRESS ('gzip --best') |
005c1a0e |
2466 | POSTOP ('@ :') |
8e07c86e |
2467 | PREOP ('@ :') |
f1387719 |
2468 | TO_UNIX (depends on the system) |
8e07c86e |
2469 | RCS_LABEL ('rcs -q -Nv$(VERSION_SYM):') |
2470 | SHAR ('shar') |
5f8e730b |
2471 | SUFFIX ('.gz') |
8e07c86e |
2472 | TAR ('tar') |
2473 | TARFLAGS ('cvf') |
3b03c0f3 |
2474 | ZIP ('zip') |
2475 | ZIPFLAGS ('-r') |

2482 | =head2 Module Meta-Data |
2483 | |
2484 | Long plaguing users of MakeMaker based modules has been the problem of |
2485 | getting basic information about the module out of the sources |
2486 | I<without> running the F<Makefile.PL> and doing a bunch of messy |
2487 | heuristics on the resulting F<Makefile>. To this end a simple module |
2488 | meta-data file has been introduced, F<META.yml>. |
2489 | |
2490 | F<META.yml> is a YAML document (see http://www.yaml.org) containing |
2491 | basic information about the module (name, version, prerequisites...) |
2492 | in an easy to read format. The format is developed and defined by the |
64964e6d |
2493 | Module::Build developers (see |
2494 | http://module-build.sourceforge.net/META-spec.html) |
1df8d179 |
2495 | |
2496 | MakeMaker will automatically generate a F<META.yml> file for you and |
2497 | add it to your F<MANIFEST> as part of the 'distdir' target (and thus |
2498 | the 'dist' target). This is intended to seamlessly and rapidly |
2499 | populate CPAN with module meta-data. If you wish to shut this feature |
2500 | off, set the C<NO_META> C<WriteMakefile()> flag to true. |
2501 | |
2502 | |
1b171b8d |
2503 | =head2 Disabling an extension |
2504 | |
2505 | If some events detected in F<Makefile.PL> imply that there is no way |
2506 | to create the Module, but this is a normal state of things, then you |
2507 | can create a F<Makefile> which does nothing, but succeeds on all the |
2508 | "usual" build targets. To do so, use |
2509 | |
1e65eb70 |
2510 | use ExtUtils::MakeMaker qw(WriteEmptyMakefile); |
2511 | WriteEmptyMakefile(); |
1b171b8d |
2512 | |
2513 | instead of WriteMakefile(). |
2514 | |
2515 | This may be useful if other modules expect this module to be I<built> |
2516 | OK, as opposed to I<work> OK (say, this system-dependent module builds |
2517 | in a subdirectory of some other distribution, or is listed as a |
2518 | dependency in a CPAN::Bundle, but the functionality is supported by |
2519 | different means on the current architecture). |

2521 | =head2 Other Handy Functions |
2522 | |
2523 | =over 4 |
2524 | |
2525 | =item prompt |
2526 | |
2527 | my $value = prompt($message); |
2528 | my $value = prompt($message, $default); |
2529 | |
2530 | The C<prompt()> function provides an easy way to request user input |
2531 | used to write a makefile. It displays the $message as a prompt for |
2532 | input. If a $default is provided it will be used as a default. The |
2533 | function returns the $value selected by the user. |
2534 | |
2535 | If C<prompt()> detects that it is not running interactively and there |
2536 | is nothing on STDIN or if the PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT environment variable |
2537 | is set to true, the $default will be used without prompting. This |
2538 | prevents automated processes from blocking on user input. |
2539 | |
2540 | If no $default is provided an empty string will be used instead. |

2549 | =item PERL_MM_OPT |
6ce21ffa |
2550 | |
2551 | Command line options used by C<MakeMaker-E<gt>new()>, and thus by |
2552 | C<WriteMakefile()>. The string is split on whitespace, and the result |
2553 | is processed before any actual command line arguments are processed. |
2554 | |
9d05ba64 |
2555 | =item PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT |
2556 | |
2557 | If set to a true value then MakeMaker's prompt function will |
2558 | always return the default without waiting for user input. |

2567 | |
562c8117 |
2568 | L<Module::Build> is a pure-Perl alternative to MakeMaker which does |
2569 | not rely on make or any other external utility. It is easier to |
2570 | extend to suit your needs. |
2571 | |
2572 | L<Module::Install> is a wrapper around MakeMaker which adds features |
2573 | not normally available. |
2574 | |
2575 | L<ExtUtils::ModuleMaker> and L<Module::Starter> are both modules to |
2576 | help you setup your distribution. |
