72=head1 NAME
73
74ExtUtils::Mkbootstrap - make a bootstrap file for use by DynaLoader
75
76=head1 SYNOPSIS
77
78C<mkbootstrap>
79
80=head1 DESCRIPTION
81
82Mkbootstrap typically gets called from an extension Makefile.
83
a7665c5e 84There is no C<*.bs> file supplied with the extension. Instead, there may
85be a C<*_BS> file which has code for the special cases, like posix for
15e1d173 86berkeley db on the NeXT.
87
88This file will get parsed, and produce a maybe empty
89C<@DynaLoader::dl_resolve_using> array for the current architecture.
90That will be extended by $BSLOADLIBS, which was computed by
91ExtUtils::Liblist::ext(). If this array still is empty, we do nothing,
92else we write a .bs file with an C<@DynaLoader::dl_resolve_using>
93array.
94
95The C<*_BS> file can put some code into the generated C<*.bs> file by
96placing it in C<$bscode>. This is a handy 'escape' mechanism that may
97prove useful in complex situations.
98
99If @DynaLoader::dl_resolve_using contains C<-L*> or C<-l*> entries then
100Mkbootstrap will automatically add a dl_findfile() call to the
101generated C<*.bs> file.
