+The extension you are trying to build apparently is rather old and

+subroutine "writeMakefile" is called, and this subroutine is not
+supported anymore since about October 1994.
+
+Please contact the author or look into CPAN (details about CPAN can be
+found in the FAQ and at http:/www.perl.com) for a more recent version
+of the extension. If you're really desperate, you can try to change
+the subroutine name from writeMakefile to WriteMakefile and rerun
+'perl Makefile.PL', but you're most probably left alone, when you do

=head1 DESCRIPTION
from a Makefile.PL. It is based on the Makefile.SH model provided by
Andy Dougherty and the perl5-porters.
-It splits the task of generating the Makefile into several subroutines
-that can be individually overridden. Each subroutine returns the text
-it wishes to have written to the Makefile.
+It splits the task of generating the Makefile into several subroutines
+that can be individually overridden. Each subroutine returns the text
+it wishes to have written to the Makefile.
+
+MakeMaker is object oriented. Each directory below the current
+directory that contains a Makefile.PL is treated as a separate
+object. This makes it possible to write an unlimited number of
+Makefiles with a single invocation of WriteMakefile().
+
+=head2 How To Write A Makefile.PL
+
+See ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Tutorial.
+
+The long answer is the rest of the manpage :-)
+
+=head2 Default Makefile Behaviour
+
+The generated Makefile enables the user of the extension to invoke
+
+ perl Makefile.PL # optionally "perl Makefile.PL verbose"
+ make
+ make test # optionally set TEST_VERBOSE=1
+ make install # See below
+
+The Makefile to be produced may be altered by adding arguments of the
+form C<KEY=VALUE>. E.g.
+
+ perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/tmp/myperl5
+
+Other interesting targets in the generated Makefile are
+
+ make config # to check if the Makefile is up-to-date
+ make clean # delete local temp files (Makefile gets renamed)
+ make realclean # delete derived files (including ./blib)
+ make ci # check in all the files in the MANIFEST file
+ make dist # see below the Distribution Support section
+
+=head2 make test
+
+MakeMaker checks for the existence of a file named F<test.pl> in the
+current directory and if it exists it execute the script with the
+proper set of perl C<-I> options.
+
+MakeMaker also checks for any files matching glob("t/*.t"). It will
+execute all matching files in alphabetical order via the
+L<Test::Harness> module with the C<-I> switches set correctly.
+
+If you'd like to see the raw output of your tests, set the
+C<TEST_VERBOSE> variable to true.
+
+ make test TEST_VERBOSE=1
+
+=head2 make testdb
+
+A useful variation of the above is the target C<testdb>. It runs the
+test under the Perl debugger (see L<perldebug>). If the file
+F<test.pl> exists in the current directory, it is used for the test.
+
+If you want to debug some other testfile, set the C<TEST_FILE> variable
+thusly:
+
+ make testdb TEST_FILE=t/mytest.t
+
+By default the debugger is called using C<-d> option to perl. If you
+want to specify some other option, set the C<TESTDB_SW> variable:
+
+ make testdb TESTDB_SW=-Dx
+
+=head2 make install
+
+make alone puts all relevant files into directories that are named by
+the macros INST_LIB, INST_ARCHLIB, INST_SCRIPT, INST_MAN1DIR and
+INST_MAN3DIR. All these default to something below ./blib if you are
+I<not> building below the perl source directory. If you I<are>
+building below the perl source, INST_LIB and INST_ARCHLIB default to
+../../lib, and INST_SCRIPT is not defined.
+
+The I<install> target of the generated Makefile copies the files found
+below each of the INST_* directories to their INSTALL*
+counterparts. Which counterparts are chosen depends on the setting of
+INSTALLDIRS according to the following table:
+
+ INSTALLDIRS set to
+ perl site vendor
+
+ PERLPREFIX SITEPREFIX VENDORPREFIX
+ INST_ARCHLIB INSTALLARCHLIB INSTALLSITEARCH INSTALLVENDORARCH
+ INST_LIB INSTALLPRIVLIB INSTALLSITELIB INSTALLVENDORLIB
+ INST_BIN INSTALLBIN INSTALLSITEBIN INSTALLVENDORBIN
+ INST_SCRIPT INSTALLSCRIPT INSTALLSCRIPT INSTALLSCRIPT
+ INST_MAN1DIR INSTALLMAN1DIR INSTALLSITEMAN1DIR INSTALLVENDORMAN1DIR
+ INST_MAN3DIR INSTALLMAN3DIR INSTALLSITEMAN3DIR INSTALLVENDORMAN3DIR
+
+The INSTALL... macros in turn default to their %Config
+($Config{installprivlib}, $Config{installarchlib}, etc.) counterparts.
+
+You can check the values of these variables on your system with
+
+ perl '-V:install.*'
+
+And to check the sequence in which the library directories are
+searched by perl, run
+
+ perl -le 'print join $/, @INC'
+
+
+=head2 PREFIX and LIB attribute
+
+PREFIX and LIB can be used to set several INSTALL* attributes in one
+go. The quickest way to install a module in a non-standard place might
+be
+
+ perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=~
+
+This will install all files in the module under your home directory,
+with man pages and libraries going into an appropriate place (usually
+~/man and ~/lib).
+
+Another way to specify many INSTALL directories with a single
+parameter is LIB.
+
+ perl Makefile.PL LIB=~/lib
+
+This will install the module's architecture-independent files into
+~/lib, the architecture-dependent files into ~/lib/$archname.
+
+Note, that in both cases the tilde expansion is done by MakeMaker, not
+by perl by default, nor by make.
+
+Conflicts between parameters LIB, PREFIX and the various INSTALL*
+arguments are resolved so that:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item *
+
+setting LIB overrides any setting of INSTALLPRIVLIB, INSTALLARCHLIB,
+INSTALLSITELIB, INSTALLSITEARCH (and they are not affected by PREFIX);
+
+=item *
+
+without LIB, setting PREFIX replaces the initial C<$Config{prefix}>
+part of those INSTALL* arguments, even if the latter are explicitly
+set (but are set to still start with C<$Config{prefix}>).
+
+=back
+
+If the user has superuser privileges, and is not working on AFS or
+relatives, then the defaults for INSTALLPRIVLIB, INSTALLARCHLIB,
+INSTALLSCRIPT, etc. will be appropriate, and this incantation will be
+the best:
+
+ perl Makefile.PL;
+ make;
+ make test
+ make install
+
+make install per default writes some documentation of what has been
+done into the file C<$(INSTALLARCHLIB)/perllocal.pod>. This feature
+can be bypassed by calling make pure_install.
+
+=head2 AFS users
+
+will have to specify the installation directories as these most
+probably have changed since perl itself has been installed. They will
+have to do this by calling
+
+ perl Makefile.PL INSTALLSITELIB=/afs/here/today \
+ INSTALLSCRIPT=/afs/there/now INSTALLMAN3DIR=/afs/for/manpages
+ make
+
+Be careful to repeat this procedure every time you recompile an
+extension, unless you are sure the AFS installation directories are
+still valid.
+
+=head2 Static Linking of a new Perl Binary
+
+An extension that is built with the above steps is ready to use on
+systems supporting dynamic loading. On systems that do not support
+dynamic loading, any newly created extension has to be linked together
+with the available resources. MakeMaker supports the linking process
+by creating appropriate targets in the Makefile whenever an extension
+is built. You can invoke the corresponding section of the makefile with
+
+ make perl
+
+That produces a new perl binary in the current directory with all
+extensions linked in that can be found in INST_ARCHLIB, SITELIBEXP,
+and PERL_ARCHLIB. To do that, MakeMaker writes a new Makefile, on
+UNIX, this is called Makefile.aperl (may be system dependent). If you
+want to force the creation of a new perl, it is recommended, that you
+delete this Makefile.aperl, so the directories are searched-through
+for linkable libraries again.
+
+The binary can be installed into the directory where perl normally
+resides on your machine with
+
+ make inst_perl
+
+To produce a perl binary with a different name than C<perl>, either say
+
+ perl Makefile.PL MAP_TARGET=myperl
+ make myperl
+ make inst_perl
+
+or say
+
+ perl Makefile.PL
+ make myperl MAP_TARGET=myperl
+ make inst_perl MAP_TARGET=myperl
+
+In any case you will be prompted with the correct invocation of the
+C<inst_perl> target that installs the new binary into INSTALLBIN.
+
+make inst_perl per default writes some documentation of what has been
+done into the file C<$(INSTALLARCHLIB)/perllocal.pod>. This
+can be bypassed by calling make pure_inst_perl.
+
+Warning: the inst_perl: target will most probably overwrite your
+existing perl binary. Use with care!
+
+Sometimes you might want to build a statically linked perl although
+your system supports dynamic loading. In this case you may explicitly
+set the linktype with the invocation of the Makefile.PL or make:
+
+ perl Makefile.PL LINKTYPE=static # recommended
+
+or
+
+ make LINKTYPE=static # works on most systems
+
+=head2 Determination of Perl Library and Installation Locations
+
+MakeMaker needs to know, or to guess, where certain things are
+located. Especially INST_LIB and INST_ARCHLIB (where to put the files
+during the make(1) run), PERL_LIB and PERL_ARCHLIB (where to read
+existing modules from), and PERL_INC (header files and C<libperl*.*>).
+
+Extensions may be built either using the contents of the perl source
+directory tree or from the installed perl library. The recommended way
+is to build extensions after you have run 'make install' on perl
+itself. You can do that in any directory on your hard disk that is not
+below the perl source tree. The support for extensions below the ext
+directory of the perl distribution is only good for the standard
+extensions that come with perl.
+
+If an extension is being built below the C<ext/> directory of the perl
+source then MakeMaker will set PERL_SRC automatically (e.g.,
+C<../..>). If PERL_SRC is defined and the extension is recognized as
+a standard extension, then other variables default to the following:
+
+ PERL_INC = PERL_SRC
+ PERL_LIB = PERL_SRC/lib
+ PERL_ARCHLIB = PERL_SRC/lib
+ INST_LIB = PERL_LIB
+ INST_ARCHLIB = PERL_ARCHLIB
+
+If an extension is being built away from the perl source then MakeMaker
+will leave PERL_SRC undefined and default to using the installed copy
+of the perl library. The other variables default to the following:
+
+ PERL_INC = $archlibexp/CORE
+ PERL_LIB = $privlibexp
+ PERL_ARCHLIB = $archlibexp
+ INST_LIB = ./blib/lib
+ INST_ARCHLIB = ./blib/arch
+
+If perl has not yet been installed then PERL_SRC can be defined on the
+command line as shown in the previous section.
+
+
+=head2 Which architecture dependent directory?
+
+If you don't want to keep the defaults for the INSTALL* macros,
+MakeMaker helps you to minimize the typing needed: the usual
+relationship between INSTALLPRIVLIB and INSTALLARCHLIB is determined
+by Configure at perl compilation time. MakeMaker supports the user who
+sets INSTALLPRIVLIB. If INSTALLPRIVLIB is set, but INSTALLARCHLIB not,
+then MakeMaker defaults the latter to be the same subdirectory of
+INSTALLPRIVLIB as Configure decided for the counterparts in %Config ,
+otherwise it defaults to INSTALLPRIVLIB. The same relationship holds
+for INSTALLSITELIB and INSTALLSITEARCH.
+
+MakeMaker gives you much more freedom than needed to configure
+internal variables and get different results. It is worth to mention,
+that make(1) also lets you configure most of the variables that are
+used in the Makefile. But in the majority of situations this will not
+be necessary, and should only be done if the author of a package
+recommends it (or you know what you're doing).
+
+=head2 Using Attributes and Parameters
+
+The following attributes may be specified as arguments to WriteMakefile()
+or as NAME=VALUE pairs on the command line.
+
+=over 2
+
+=item ABSTRACT
+
+One line description of the module. Will be included in PPD file.
+
+=item ABSTRACT_FROM
+
+Name of the file that contains the package description. MakeMaker looks
+for a line in the POD matching /^($package\s-\s)(.*)/. This is typically
+the first line in the "=head1 NAME" section. $2 becomes the abstract.
+
+=item AUTHOR
+
+String containing name (and email address) of package author(s). Is used
+in PPD (Perl Package Description) files for PPM (Perl Package Manager).
+
+=item BINARY_LOCATION
+
+Used when creating PPD files for binary packages. It can be set to a
+full or relative path or URL to the binary archive for a particular
+architecture. For example:
+
+ perl Makefile.PL BINARY_LOCATION=x86/Agent.tar.gz
+
+builds a PPD package that references a binary of the C<Agent> package,
+located in the C<x86> directory relative to the PPD itself.
+
+=item C
+
+Ref to array of *.c file names. Initialised from a directory scan
+and the values portion of the XS attribute hash. This is not
+currently used by MakeMaker but may be handy in Makefile.PLs.
+
+=item CCFLAGS
+
+String that will be included in the compiler call command line between
+the arguments INC and OPTIMIZE.
+
+=item CONFIG
+
+Arrayref. E.g. [qw(archname manext)] defines ARCHNAME & MANEXT from
+config.sh. MakeMaker will add to CONFIG the following values anyway:
+ar
+cc
+cccdlflags
+ccdlflags
+dlext
+dlsrc
+ld
+lddlflags
+ldflags
+libc
+lib_ext
+obj_ext
+ranlib
+sitelibexp
+sitearchexp
+so
+
+=item CONFIGURE
+
+CODE reference. The subroutine should return a hash reference. The
+hash may contain further attributes, e.g. {LIBS =E<gt> ...}, that have to
+be determined by some evaluation method.
+
+=item DEFINE
+
+Something like C<"-DHAVE_UNISTD_H">
+
+=item DESTDIR
+
+This is the root directory into which the code will be installed. It
+I<prepends itself to the normal prefix>. For example, if your code
+would normally go into /usr/local/lib/perl you could set DESTDIR=/tmp/
+and installation would go into /tmp/usr/local/lib/perl.
+
+This is primarily of use for people who repackage Perl modules.
+
+NOTE: Due to the nature of make, it is important that you put the trailing
+slash on your DESTDIR. "/tmp/" not "/tmp".
+
+=item DIR
+
+Ref to array of subdirectories containing Makefile.PLs e.g. [ 'sdbm'
+] in ext/SDBM_File
+
+=item DISTNAME
+
+A safe filename for the package.
+
+Defaults to NAME above but with :: replaced with -.
+
+For example, Foo::Bar becomes Foo-Bar.
+
+=item DISTVNAME
+
+Your name for distributing the package with the version number
+included. This is used by 'make dist' to name the resulting archive
+file.
+
+Defaults to DISTNAME-VERSION.
+
+For example, version 1.04 of Foo::Bar becomes Foo-Bar-1.04.
+
+On some OS's where . has special meaning VERSION_SYM may be used in
+place of VERSION.
+
+=item DL_FUNCS
+
+Hashref of symbol names for routines to be made available as universal
+symbols. Each key/value pair consists of the package name and an
+array of routine names in that package. Used only under AIX, OS/2,
+VMS and Win32 at present. The routine names supplied will be expanded
+in the same way as XSUB names are expanded by the XS() macro.
+Defaults to
+
+ {"$(NAME)" => ["boot_$(NAME)" ] }
+
+e.g.
+
+ {"RPC" => [qw( boot_rpcb rpcb_gettime getnetconfigent )],
+ "NetconfigPtr" => [ 'DESTROY'] }
+
+Please see the L<ExtUtils::Mksymlists> documentation for more information
+about the DL_FUNCS, DL_VARS and FUNCLIST attributes.
+
+=item DL_VARS
+
+Array of symbol names for variables to be made available as universal symbols.
+Used only under AIX, OS/2, VMS and Win32 at present. Defaults to [].
+(e.g. [ qw(Foo_version Foo_numstreams Foo_tree ) ])
+
+=item EXCLUDE_EXT
+
+Array of extension names to exclude when doing a static build. This
+is ignored if INCLUDE_EXT is present. Consult INCLUDE_EXT for more
+details. (e.g. [ qw( Socket POSIX ) ] )
+
+This attribute may be most useful when specified as a string on the
+command line: perl Makefile.PL EXCLUDE_EXT='Socket Safe'
+
+=item EXE_FILES
+
+Ref to array of executable files. The files will be copied to the
+INST_SCRIPT directory. Make realclean will delete them from there
+again.
+
+If your executables start with something like #!perl or
+#!/usr/bin/perl MakeMaker will change this to the path of the perl
+'Makefile.PL' was invoked with so the programs will be sure to run
+properly even if perl is not in /usr/bin/perl.
+
+=item FIRST_MAKEFILE
+
+The name of the Makefile to be produced. This is used for the second
+Makefile that will be produced for the MAP_TARGET.
+
+Defaults to 'Makefile' or 'Descrip.MMS' on VMS.
+
+(Note: we couldn't use MAKEFILE because dmake uses this for something
+else).
+
+=item FULLPERL
+
+Perl binary able to run this extension, load XS modules, etc...
+
+=item FULLPERLRUN
+
+Like PERLRUN, except it uses FULLPERL.
+
+=item FULLPERLRUNINST
+
+Like PERLRUNINST, except it uses FULLPERL.
+
+=item FUNCLIST
+
+This provides an alternate means to specify function names to be
+exported from the extension. Its value is a reference to an
+array of function names to be exported by the extension. These
+names are passed through unaltered to the linker options file.
+
+=item H
+
+Ref to array of *.h file names. Similar to C.
+
+=item IMPORTS
+
+This attribute is used to specify names to be imported into the

+It is only used on OS/2 and Win32.
+
+=item INC
+
+Include file dirs eg: C<"-I/usr/5include -I/path/to/inc">
+
+=item INCLUDE_EXT
+
+Array of extension names to be included when doing a static build.
+MakeMaker will normally build with all of the installed extensions when
+doing a static build, and that is usually the desired behavior. If
+INCLUDE_EXT is present then MakeMaker will build only with those extensions
+which are explicitly mentioned. (e.g. [ qw( Socket POSIX ) ])
+
+It is not necessary to mention DynaLoader or the current extension when
+filling in INCLUDE_EXT. If the INCLUDE_EXT is mentioned but is empty then
+only DynaLoader and the current extension will be included in the build.
+
+This attribute may be most useful when specified as a string on the
+command line: perl Makefile.PL INCLUDE_EXT='POSIX Socket Devel::Peek'
+
+=item INSTALLARCHLIB
+
+Used by 'make install', which copies files from INST_ARCHLIB to this
+directory if INSTALLDIRS is set to perl.
+
+=item INSTALLBIN
+
+Directory to install binary files (e.g. tkperl) into if
+INSTALLDIRS=perl.
+
+=item INSTALLDIRS
+
+Determines which of the sets of installation directories to choose:
+perl, site or vendor. Defaults to site.
+
+=item INSTALLMAN1DIR
+
+=item INSTALLMAN3DIR
+
+These directories get the man pages at 'make install' time if
+INSTALLDIRS=perl. Defaults to $Config{installman*dir}.
+
+If set to 'none', no man pages will be installed.
+
+=item INSTALLPRIVLIB
+
+Used by 'make install', which copies files from INST_LIB to this
+directory if INSTALLDIRS is set to perl.
+
+Defaults to $Config{installprivlib}.
+
+=item INSTALLSCRIPT
+
+Used by 'make install' which copies files from INST_SCRIPT to this
+directory.
+
+=item INSTALLSITEARCH
+
+Used by 'make install', which copies files from INST_ARCHLIB to this
+directory if INSTALLDIRS is set to site (default).
+
+=item INSTALLSITEBIN
+
+Used by 'make install', which copies files from INST_BIN to this
+directory if INSTALLDIRS is set to site (default).

+
+If set to 'none', no man pages will be installed.
+
+=item INST_ARCHLIB
+
+Same as INST_LIB for architecture dependent files.
+
+=item INST_BIN
+
+Directory to put real binary files during 'make'. These will be copied
+to INSTALLBIN during 'make install'
+
+=item INST_LIB
-MakeMaker.pm uses the architecture specific information from
-Config.pm. In addition the extension may contribute to the C<%Config>
-hash table of Config.pm by supplying hints files in a C<hints/>
-directory. The hints files are expected to be named like their
-counterparts in C<PERL_SRC/hints>, but with an C<.pl> file name
-extension (eg. C<next_3_2.sh>). They are simply C<eval>ed by MakeMaker
-and can be used to execute commands as well as to include special
-variables. If there is no hintsfile for the actual system, but for
-some previous releases of the same operating system, the latest one of
-those is used.
+Directory where we put library files of this extension while building
+it.
-=head2 Default Makefile Behaviour
+=item INST_MAN1DIR
-The automatically generated Makefile enables the user of the extension
-to invoke
+Directory to hold the man pages at 'make' time
- perl Makefile.PL
- make
- make test # optionally set TEST_VERBOSE=1
- make install # See below
+=item INST_MAN3DIR
-The Makefile to be produced may be altered by adding arguments of the
-form C<KEY=VALUE>. If the user wants to have the extension installed
-into a directory different from C<$Config{"installprivlib"}> it can be
-done by specifying
+Directory to hold the man pages at 'make' time
- perl Makefile.PL INST_LIB=~/myperllib INST_EXE=~/bin
+=item INST_SCRIPT
-Note, that in this example MakeMaker does the tilde expansion for you
-and INST_ARCHLIB is set to either C<INST_LIB/$Config{"archname"}> if
-that directory exists and otherwise to INST_LIB.
+Directory, where executable files should be installed during
+'make'. Defaults to "./blib/script", just to have a dummy location during
+testing. make install will copy the files in INST_SCRIPT to
+INSTALLSCRIPT.
-Other interesting targets in the generated Makefile are
+=item LD
- make config # to check if the Makefile is up-to-date
- make clean # delete local temporary files (Makefile gets renamed)
- make realclean # delete all derived files (including installed files)
- make distclean # produce a gzipped file ready for shipping
-
-The macros in the produced Makefile may be overridden on the command
-line to the make call as in the following example:
-
- make INST_LIB=/some/where INST_ARCHLIB=/some/where INST_EXE=/u/k/bin
-
-Note, that this is a solution provided by C<make> in general, so tilde
-expansion will probably not be available and INST_ARCHLIB will not be
-set automatically when INST_LIB is given as argument.
-
-The generated Makefile does not set any permissions. The installer has
-to decide, which umask should be in effect.
-
-=head2 Special case C<make install>
-
-The I<install> target of the generated Makefile is for system
-administrators only that have writing permissions on the
-system-specific directories $Config{installprivlib},
-$Config{installarchlib}, and $Config{installbin}. This works, because
-C<make> alone in fact puts all relevant files into directories that
-are named by the macros INST_LIB, INST_ARCHLIB, and INST_EXE. All
-three default to ./blib if you are not building below the perl source
-directory. C<make install> is just a recursive call to C<make> with
-the three relevant parameters set accordingly to the system-wide
-defaults.
-
-C<make install> per default writes some documentation of what has been
-done into the file C<$Config{'installarchlib'}/perllocal.pod>. This is
-an experimental feature. It can be bypassed by calling C<make
-pure_install>.
-
-Users that do not have privileges on the system but want to install
-the relevant files of the module into their private library or binary
-directories do not call C<make install>. In priciple they have the
-choice to either say
-
- # case: trust the module
- perl Makefile.PL INST_LIB=~/perllib INST_EXE=~/bin
- make
- make test
+Program to be used to link libraries for dynamic loading.
-or
+Defaults to $Config{ld}.
- # case: want to run tests before installation
- perl Makefile.PL
- make
- make test
- make INST_LIB=/some/where INST_ARCHLIB=/foo/bar INST_EXE=/somebin
+=item LDDLFLAGS
-(C<make test> is not necessarily supported for all modules.)
+Any special flags that might need to be passed to ld to create a
+shared library suitable for dynamic loading. It is up to the makefile
+to use it. (See L<Config/lddlflags>)
-=head2 Support to Link a new Perl Binary
+Defaults to $Config{lddlflags}.
-An extension that is built with the above steps is ready to use on
-systems supporting dynamic loading. On systems that do not support
-dynamic loading, any newly created extension has to be linked together
-with the available ressources. MakeMaker supports the linking process
-by creating appropriate targets in the Makefile whenever an extension
-is built. You can invoke the corresponding section of the makefile with
+=item LDFROM
- make perl
+Defaults to "$(OBJECT)" and is used in the ld command to specify
+what files to link/load from (also see dynamic_lib below for how to
+specify ld flags)
-That produces a new perl binary in the current directory with all
-extensions linked in that can be found in INST_ARCHLIB and
-PERL_ARCHLIB.
+=item LIB
-The binary can be installed into the directory where perl normally
-resides on your machine with
+LIB should only be set at C<perl Makefile.PL> time but is allowed as a
+MakeMaker argument. It has the effect of setting both INSTALLPRIVLIB
+and INSTALLSITELIB to that value regardless any explicit setting of
+those arguments (or of PREFIX). INSTALLARCHLIB and INSTALLSITEARCH
+are set to the corresponding architecture subdirectory.
- make inst_perl
+=item LIBPERL_A
-To produce a perl binary with a different name than C<perl>, either say
+The filename of the perllibrary that will be used together with this
+extension. Defaults to libperl.a.
- perl Makefile.PL MAP_TARGET=myperl
- make myperl
- make inst_perl
+=item LIBS
-or say
+An anonymous array of alternative library
+specifications to be searched for (in order) until
+at least one library is found. E.g.
- perl Makefile.PL
- make myperl MAP_TARGET=myperl
- make inst_perl MAP_TARGET=myperl
+ 'LIBS' => ["-lgdbm", "-ldbm -lfoo", "-L/path -ldbm.nfs"]
-In any case you will be prompted with the correct invocation of the
-C<inst_perl> target that installs the new binary into
-$Config{'installbin'}.
+Mind, that any element of the array
+contains a complete set of arguments for the ld
+command. So do not specify
-Note, that there is a C<makeaperl> scipt in the perl distribution,
-that supports the linking of a new perl binary in a similar fashion,
-but with more options.
+ 'LIBS' => ["-ltcl", "-ltk", "-lX11"]
-C<make inst_perl> per default writes some documentation of what has been
-done into the file C<$Config{'installarchlib'}/perllocal.pod>. This
-can be bypassed by calling C<make pure_inst_perl>.
+See ODBM_File/Makefile.PL for an example, where an array is needed. If
+you specify a scalar as in
-Warning: the inst_perl: target is rather mighty and will probably
-overwrite your existing perl binary. Use with care!
+ 'LIBS' => "-ltcl -ltk -lX11"
-=head2 Determination of Perl Library and Installation Locations
+MakeMaker will turn it into an array with one element.
-MakeMaker needs to know, or to guess, where certain things are
-located. Especially INST_LIB and INST_ARCHLIB (where to install files
-into), PERL_LIB and PERL_ARCHLIB (where to read existing modules
-from), and PERL_INC (header files and C<libperl*.*>).
+=item LINKTYPE
-Extensions may be built either using the contents of the perl source
-directory tree or from an installed copy of the perl library.
+'static' or 'dynamic' (default unless usedl=undef in
+config.sh). Should only be used to force static linking (also see
+linkext below).
-If an extension is being built below the C<ext/> directory of the perl
-source then MakeMaker will set PERL_SRC automatically (e.g., C<../..>).
-If PERL_SRC is defined then other variables default to the following:
+=item MAKEAPERL
- PERL_INC = PERL_SRC
- PERL_LIB = PERL_SRC/lib
- PERL_ARCHLIB = PERL_SRC/lib
- INST_LIB = PERL_LIB
- INST_ARCHLIB = PERL_ARCHLIB
+Boolean which tells MakeMaker, that it should include the rules to
+make a perl. This is handled automatically as a switch by
+MakeMaker. The user normally does not need it.
-If an extension is being built away from the perl source then MakeMaker
-will leave PERL_SRC undefined and default to using the installed copy
-of the perl library. The other variables default to the following:
+=item MAKEFILE_OLD
- PERL_INC = $archlib/CORE
- PERL_LIB = $privlib
- PERL_ARCHLIB = $archlib
- INST_LIB = ./blib
- INST_ARCHLIB = ./blib
+When 'make clean' or similar is run, the $(FIRST_MAKEFILE) will be
+backed up at this location.
-If perl has not yet been installed then PERL_SRC can be defined on the
-command line as shown in the previous section.
+Defaults to $(FIRST_MAKEFILE).old or $(FIRST_MAKEFILE)_old on VMS.
-=head2 Useful Default Makefile Macros
+=item MAN1PODS
-FULLEXT = Pathname for extension directory (eg DBD/Oracle).
+Hashref of pod-containing files. MakeMaker will default this to all
+EXE_FILES files that include POD directives. The files listed
+here will be converted to man pages and installed as was requested
+at Configure time.
-BASEEXT = Basename part of FULLEXT. May be just equal FULLEXT.
+=item MAN3PODS
-ROOTEXT = Directory part of FULLEXT with leading slash (eg /DBD)
+Hashref that assigns to *.pm and *.pod files the files into which the
+manpages are to be written. MakeMaker parses all *.pod and *.pm files
+for POD directives. Files that contain POD will be the default keys of
+the MAN3PODS hashref. These will then be converted to man pages during
+C<make> and will be installed during C<make install>.
-PERL_LIB = Directory where we read the perl library files
+=item MAP_TARGET
-PERL_ARCHLIB = Same as above for architecture dependent files
+If it is intended, that a new perl binary be produced, this variable
+may hold a name for that binary. Defaults to perl
-INST_LIB = Directory where we put library files of this extension
-while building it. If we are building below PERL_SRC/ext
-we default to PERL_SRC/lib, else we default to ./blib.
+=item MYEXTLIB
-INST_ARCHLIB = Same as above for architecture dependent files
+If the extension links to a library that it builds set this to the
+name of the library (see SDBM_File)
-INST_LIBDIR = C<$(INST_LIB)$(ROOTEXT)>
+=item NAME
-INST_AUTODIR = C<$(INST_LIB)/auto/$(FULLEXT)>
+Perl module name for this extension (DBD::Oracle). This will default
+to the directory name but should be explicitly defined in the
+Makefile.PL.
-INST_ARCHAUTODIR = C<$(INST_ARCHLIB)/auto/$(FULLEXT)>
+=item NEEDS_LINKING
-=head2 Customizing The Generated Makefile
+MakeMaker will figure out if an extension contains linkable code
+anywhere down the directory tree, and will set this variable
+accordingly, but you can speed it up a very little bit if you define
+this boolean variable yourself.
-If the Makefile generated does not fit your purpose you can change it
-using the mechanisms described below.
+=item NOECHO
-=head2 Using Attributes (and Parameters)
+Command so make does not print the literal commands its running.
-The following attributes can be specified as arguments to WriteMakefile()
-or as NAME=VALUE pairs on the command line:
+By setting it to an empty string you can generate a Makefile that
+prints all commands. Mainly used in debugging MakeMaker itself.
-This description is not yet documented; you can get at the description
-with the command
+Defaults to C<@>.
-C<perl Makefile.PL help> (if you already have a basic Makefile.PL)
+=item NORECURS
-or
+Boolean. Attribute to inhibit descending into subdirectories.
-C<perl -e 'use ExtUtils::MakeMaker qw(&help); &help;'>
+=item NO_META
-=head2 Overriding MakeMaker Methods
+When true, suppresses the generation and addition to the MANIFEST of
+the META.yml module meta-data file during 'make distdir'.
-If you cannot achieve the desired Makefile behaviour by specifying
-attributes you may define private subroutines in the Makefile.PL.
-Each subroutines returns the text it wishes to have written to
-the Makefile. To override a section of the Makefile you can
-either say:
+Defaults to false.
- sub MY::c_o { "new literal text" }
+=item NO_VC
-or you can edit the default by saying something like:
+In general, any generated Makefile checks for the current version of
+MakeMaker and the version the Makefile was built under. If NO_VC is
+set, the version check is neglected. Do not write this into your
+Makefile.PL, use it interactively instead.
- sub MY::c_o { $_=MM->c_o; s/old text/new text/; $_ }
+=item OBJECT
-If you still need a different solution, try to develop another
-subroutine, that fits your needs and submit the diffs to
-F<perl5-porters@nicoh.com> or F<comp.lang.perl> as appropriate.
+List of object files, defaults to '$(BASEEXT)$(OBJ_EXT)', but can be a long
+string containing all object files, e.g. "tkpBind.o
+tkpButton.o tkpCanvas.o"

+(Where BASEEXT is the last component of NAME, and OBJ_EXT is $Config{obj_ext}.)

- MakeMaker will turn it into an array with one element.
-
- LDFROM: defaults to "$(OBJECT)" and is used in the ld command

-
- PM: Hashref of .pm files and *.pl files to be installed.

- Defining PM in the Makefile.PL will override PMLIBDIRS.
-
- XS: Hashref of .xs files. MakeMaker will default this.

- The .c files will automatically be included in the list
- of files deleted by a make clean.
-
- C: Ref to array of *.c file names. Initialised from a directory scan

- currently used by MakeMaker but may be handy in Makefile.PLs.
-
- H: Ref to array of *.h file names. Similar to C: above.
-
- PL_FILES: Ref to hash of files to be processed as perl programs. MakeMaker
- will default to any found C<*.PL> file (except C<Makefile.PL>) being

-
- DL_FUNCS: Hashref of symbol names for routines to be made available as
- universal symbols. Each key/value pair consists of the package
- name and an array of routine names in that package. Used only
- under AIX (export lists) and VMS (linker options) at present.
- The routine names supplied will be expanded in the same way
- as XSUB names are expanded by the XS() macro.
- Defaults to { "$(NAME)" => [ "boot_$(NAME)" ] }.

-Introduces EXE_FILES and INST_EXE for installing executable scripts
-and fixes documentation to reflect the new variable.
+=head2 Module Meta-Data
-Introduces the automated documentation of the installation history. Every
- make install
-and
- make inst_perl
-add some documentation to the file C<$installarchlib/perllocal.pod>.
-This is done by the writedoc() routine in the MM_Unix class. The
-documentation is rudimentary until we find an agreement, what
-information is supposed to go into the pod.
+Long plaguing users of MakeMaker based modules has been the problem of
+getting basic information about the module out of the sources
+I<without> running the F<Makefile.PL> and doing a bunch of messy
+heuristics on the resulting F<Makefile>. To this end a simple module
+meta-data file has been introduced, F<META.yml>.
-Added ability to specify the another name than C<perl> for a new binary.
+F<META.yml> is a YAML document (see http://www.yaml.org) containing
+basic information about the module (name, version, prerequisites...)
+in an easy to read format. The format is developed and defined by the
+Module::Build developers (see
+http://module-build.sourceforge.net/META-spec.html)
-Both C<make perl> and C<makeaperl> now prompt the user, how to install
-the new binary after the build.
+MakeMaker will automatically generate a F<META.yml> file for you and
+add it to your F<MANIFEST> as part of the 'distdir' target (and thus
+the 'dist' target). This is intended to seamlessly and rapidly
+populate CPAN with module meta-data. If you wish to shut this feature
+off, set the C<NO_META> C<WriteMakefile()> flag to true.
-Reduced noise during the make.
-Variable LIBPERL_A enables indirect setting of the switches -DEMBED,
--DDEBUGGING and -DMULTIPLICITY in the same way as done by cflags.
+=head2 Disabling an extension
-old_extliblist() code deleted, new_extliblist() renamed to extliblist().
+If some events detected in F<Makefile.PL> imply that there is no way
+to create the Module, but this is a normal state of things, then you
+can create a F<Makefile> which does nothing, but succeeds on all the
+"usual" build targets. To do so, use
-Improved algorithm in extliblist, that returns ('','','') if no
-library has been found, even if a -L directory has been found.
+ ExtUtils::MakeMaker::WriteEmptyMakefile();
-Fixed a bug that didn't allow lib/ directory work as documented.
+instead of WriteMakefile().
-Allowed C<make test TEST_VERBOSE=1>
+This may be useful if other modules expect this module to be I<built>
+OK, as opposed to I<work> OK (say, this system-dependent module builds
+in a subdirectory of some other distribution, or is listed as a
+dependency in a CPAN::Bundle, but the functionality is supported by
+different means on the current architecture).
-v4.086 March 9 1995 by Andy Dougherty
+=head2 Other Handy Functions
-Fixed some AIX buglets. Fixed DLD support for Linux with gcc 2.6.2.
+=over 4
-v4.09 March 31 1995 by Andreas Koenig
+=item prompt
-Patches from Tim (/usr/local/lib/perl5/hpux/CORE/libperl.a not found
-message eliminated, and a small makeaperl patch).
+ my $value = prompt($message);
+ my $value = prompt($message, $default);
-blib now is a relative directory (./blib).
+The C<prompt()> function provides an easy way to request user input
+used to write a makefile. It displays the $message as a prompt for
+input. If a $default is provided it will be used as a default. The
+function returns the $value selected by the user.
-Documentation bug fixed.
+If C<prompt()> detects that it is not running interactively and there
+is nothing on STDIN or if the PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT environment variable
+is set to true, the $default will be used without prompting. This
+prevents automated processes from blocking on user input.
-Chdir in the Makefile always followed by "&&", not by ";".
+If no $default is provided an empty string will be used instead.
-The output of cflags is no longer directed to /dev/null, but the shell
-version of cflags is now only called once.
+=back
-The result of MakeMaker's cflags takes precedence over
-shell-cflags.
-Introduced a $(PASTHRU) variable, that doesn't have much effect yet,
-but now it's easier to add variables that have to be passed to
-recursive makes.
+=head1 ENVIRONMENT
-'make config' will now always reapply the original arguments to the
-'perl Makefile.PL'.
+=over 4
-MKPATH will be called only once for any directory (should speed up Tk
-building and installation considerably).
+=item PERL_MM_OPT
-"Subroutine mkbootstrap redefined" message eliminated. It was
-necessary to move &mkbootstrap and &mksymlists from @EXPORT to
-@EXPORT_OK.
+Command line options used by C<MakeMaker-E<gt>new()>, and thus by
+C<WriteMakefile()>. The string is split on whitespace, and the result
+is processed before any actual command line arguments are processed.
-C<*.PL> files will be processed by C<$(PERL)>.
+=item PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT
-Turned some globals into my() variables, where it was obvious to be an
-oversight.
+If set to a true value then MakeMaker's prompt function will
+always return the default without waiting for user input.
-Changed some continuation lines so that they work on Solaris and Unicos.
