ExtUtils::Miniperl(3)


NAME

  ExtUtils::Miniperl, writemain - write the C code for perlmain.c


SYNOPSIS

  "use ExtUtils::Miniperl;"

  "writemain(@directories);"


DESCRIPTION

  This whole module is written when perl itself is built from a script called
  minimod.PL. In case you want to patch it, please patch minimod.PL in the
  perl distribution instead.

  writemain() takes an argument list of directories containing archive
  libraries that relate to perl modules and should be linked into a new perl
  binary. It writes to STDOUT a corresponding perlmain.c file that is a plain
  C file containing all the bootstrap code to make the modules associated
  with the libraries available from within perl.

  The typical usage is from within a Makefile generated by
  ExtUtils::MakeMaker. So under normal circumstances you won't have to deal
  with this module directly.
