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.

catfile

Concatenate one or more directory names and a filename to form a complete path ending with a filename

constants (o)

Initializes lots of constants and .SUFFIXES and .PHONY

static_lib (o)

Defines how to produce the *.a (or equivalent) files.

dynamic_bs (o)

Defines targets for bootstrap files.

dynamic_lib (o)

Defines how to produce the *.so (or equivalent) files.

canonpath

No physical check on the filesystem, but a logical cleanup of a path. On UNIX eliminated successive slashes and successive "/.".

perl_script

Takes one argument, a file name, and returns the file name, if the argument is likely to be a perl script. On MM_Unix this is true for any ordinary, readable file.

pm_to_blib

Defines target that copies all files in the hash PM to their destination and autosplits them. See "DESCRIPTION" in ExtUtils::Install

test_via_harness (o)

Helper method to write the test targets

tool_autosplit (override)

Use Win32 quoting on command line.

tools_other (o)

Win32 overrides.

Defines SHELL, LD, TOUCH, CP, MV, RM_F, RM_RF, CHMOD, UMASK_NULL in the Makefile. Also defines the perl programs MKPATH, WARN_IF_OLD_PACKLIST, MOD_INSTALL. DOC_INSTALL, and UNINSTALL.

xs_o (o)

Defines suffix rules to go from XS to object files directly. This is only intended for broken make implementations.

top_targets (o)

Defines the targets all, subdirs, config, and O_FILES

manifypods (o)

We don't want manpage process. XXX add pod2html support later.

dist_ci (o)

Same as MM_Unix version (changes command-line quoting).

dist_core (o)

Same as MM_Unix version (changes command-line quoting).

pasthru (o)

Defines the string that is passed to recursive make calls in subdirectories.
