Module::Install::Compiler(3)               User Contributed Perl Documentation


NAME
       Module::Install::Compiler - Commands for interacting with the C
       compiler

SYNOPSIS
         To be completed

DESCRIPTION
       Many Perl modules that contains C and XS code have fiendishly complex
       Makefile.PL files, because ExtUtils::MakeMaker doesn't itself provide a
       huge amount of assistance and automation in this area.

       Module::Install::Compiler provides a number of commands that take care
       of common utility tasks, and try to take some of intricacy out of
       creating C and XS modules.

COMMANDS
       To be completed

TO DO
       The current implementation is relatively fragile and minimalistic.

       It only handles some very basic wrapper around ExtUtils::MakeMaker.

       It is currently undergoing extensive refactoring to provide a more
       generic compiler flag generation capability. This may take some time,
       and if anyone who maintains a Perl module that makes use of the
       compiler would like to help out, your assistance would be greatly
       appreciated.
