ExtUtils::MM_Win95(3)


NAME

  ExtUtils::MM_Win95 - method to customize MakeMaker for Win9X


SYNOPSIS

    You should not be using this module directly.


DESCRIPTION

  This is a subclass of ExtUtils::MM_Win32 containing changes necessary to
  get MakeMaker playing nice with command.com and other Win9Xisms.

  Overriden methods

  Most of these make up for limitations in the Win9x command shell.  Namely
  the lack of && and that a chdir is global, so you have to chdir back at the
  end.

  dist_test
      && and chdir problem.

  subdir_x
      && and chdir problem.

      Also, dmake has an odd way of making a command series silent.

  xs_c
      The && problem.

  xs_cpp
      The && problem

  xs_o
      The && problem.

  clean_subdirs_target
      && and chdir problem.

  realclean_subdirs_target
      && and chdir problem.

  os_flavor
      Win95 and Win98 and WinME are collectively Win9x and Win32
