NAME
ExtUtils::Miniperl - write the C code for perlmain.c
SYNOPSIS
1 2 3 4 5 6 | use ExtUtils::Miniperl;writemain(@directories);# orwritemain($fh, @directories);# orwritemain(\$filename, @directories); |
DESCRIPTION
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 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. If the first argument to writemain() is a reference to a scalar it is used as the filename to open for output. Any other reference is used as the filehandle to write to. Otherwise output defaults to STDOUT .
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.
