Chapter 8 Standard Modules |

Provides methods for MakeMaker to handle portability issues. You never need to
require
this module, but you might want to if you are working on improving MakeMaker's portability
Provides methods for both Unix and non-Unix systems; on non-Unix systems, they can be overridden by methods defined in other MM_* modules. The methods are listed here:
ExtUtils::MM_Unix has some additional methods that are called in sequence to produce a Makefile. The list of methods is specified in the array
@ExtUtils::MakeMaker::MM_Sections
, one method per section. The routines are all called the same way and so are just listed here. Each method returns the string to be put into its section of the
Makefile
.
The methods are called in the order that they are listed in the following table, reading down the columns:
post_initialize
|
top_targets
|
realclean
|
const_config
|
linkext
|
dist_basics
|
constants
|
dlsyms
|
dist_core
|
const_loadlibs
|
dynamic
|
dist_dir
|
const_cccmd
|
dynamic_bs
|
dist_test
|
tool_autosplit
|
dynamic_lib
|
dist_ci
|
tool_xsubpp
|
static
|
install
|
tools_other
|
static_lib
|
force
|
dist
|
installpm
|
perldepend
|
macro
|
installpm_x
|
makefile
|
depend
|
manifypods
|
staticmake
|
post_constants
|
processPL
|
test
|
pasthru
|
installbin
|
test_via_harness
|
c_o
|
subdirs
|
test_via_script
|
xs_c
|
subdir_x
|
postamble
|
xs_o
|
clean
|
Finally, there are two special methods:
post_initialize
and
postamble
. They each return an empty string by default and can be defined in
Makefile.PL
to insert customized text near the beginning or end of the
Makefile
.
