This variable conditionally defines the HAS_FCNTL symbol, and indicates
whether the fcntl() function exists
+d_fcntl_can_lock (d_fcntl_can_lock.U):
+ This variable conditionally defines the FCNTL_CAN_LOCK symbol
+ and indicates whether file locking with fcntl() works.
+
d_fd_macros (d_fd_set.U):
This variable contains the eventual value of the HAS_FD_MACROS symbol,
which indicates if your C compiler knows about the macros which
This variable conditionally defines STDIO_PTR_LVALUE if the
FILE_ptr macro can be used as an lvalue.
+d_stdio_ptr_lval_nochange_cnt (d_stdstdio.U):
+ This symbol is defined if using the FILE_ptr macro as an lvalue
+ to increase the pointer by n leaves File_cnt(fp) unchanged.
+
+d_stdio_ptr_lval_sets_cnt (d_stdstdio.U):
+ This symbol is defined if using the FILE_ptr macro as an lvalue
+ to increase the pointer by n has the side effect of decreasing the
+ value of File_cnt(fp) by n.
+
d_stdio_stream_array (stdio_streams.U):
This variable tells whether there is an array holding
the stdio streams.
perladmin (perladmin.U):
Electronic mail address of the perl5 administrator.
+perllibs (End.U):
+ The list of libraries needed by Perl only (any libraries needed
+ by extensions only will by dropped, if using dynamic loading).
+
perlpath (perlpath.U):
This variable contains the eventual value of the PERLPATH symbol,
which contains the name of the perl interpreter to be used in
This is suitable for use as a directory name, and hence is
filesystem dependent.
+versiononly (versiononly.U):
+ If set, this symbol indicates that only the version-specific
+ components of a perl installation should be installed.
+ This may be useful for making a test installation of a new
+ version without disturbing the existing installation.
+ Setting versiononly is equivalent to setting installperl's -v option.
+ In particular, the non-versioned scripts and programs such as
+ a2p, c2ph, h2xs, pod2*, and perldoc are not installed
+ (see INSTALL for a more complete list). Nor are the man
+ pages installed.
+ Usually, this is undef.
+
vi (Loc.U):
This variable is defined but not used by Configure.
The value is a plain '' and is not useful.
