It exports two functions: \f(CW\*(C`prompt\*(C'\fR (an alias for \f(CW\*(C`ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt\*(C'\fR) and \f(CW\*(C`WriteMakefile\*(C'\fR. .PP The \f(CW\*(C`WriteMakefile\*(C'\fR function will pass on keyword/value pair functions to \f(CW\*(C`ExtUtils::MakeMaker::WriteMakefile\*(C'\fR. The required parameters \&\f(CW\*(C`NAME\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`VERSION\*(C'\fR (or \f(CW\*(C`VERSION_FROM\*(C'\fR) are not necessary if it can find them unambiguously in your code. .SH "CONFIGURATION OPTIONS" .IX Header "CONFIGURATION OPTIONS" This module also adds some Configuration parameters of its own: .SS "\s-1NAME\s0" .IX Subsection "NAME" The \s-1NAME\s0 parameter is required by \fBExtUtils::MakeMaker\fR. If you have a single module in your distribution, or if the module name indicated by the current directory exists under \fIlib/\fR, this module will use the guessed package name as the default. .PP If this module can't find a default for \f(CW\*(C`NAME\*(C'\fR it will ask you to specify it manually. .SS "\s-1VERSION\s0" .IX Subsection "VERSION" \&\fBExtUtils::MakeMaker\fR requires either the \f(CW\*(C`VERSION\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`VERSION_FROM\*(C'\fR parameter. If this module can guess the package's \f(CW\*(C`NAME\*(C'\fR, it will attempt to parse the \f(CW\*(C`VERSION\*(C'\fR from it. .PP If this module can't find a default for \f(CW\*(C`VERSION\*(C'\fR it will ask you to specify it manually. .SH "MAKE TARGETS" .IX Header "MAKE TARGETS" \&\fBExtUtils::MakeMaker\fR provides you with many useful \f(CW\*(C`make\*(C'\fR targets. A \&\f(CW\*(C`make\*(C'\fR \fBtarget\fR is the word you specify after \f(CW\*(C`make\*(C'\fR, like \f(CW\*(C`test\*(C'\fR for \f(CW\*(C`make test\*(C'\fR. Some of the more useful targets are: .IP "\(bu" 4 all .Sp This is the default target. When you type \f(CW\*(C`make\*(C'\fR it is the same as entering \f(CW\*(C`make all\*(C'\fR. This target builds all of your code and stages it in the \f(CW\*(C`blib\*(C'\fR directory. .IP "\(bu" 4 test .Sp Run your distribution's test suite. .IP "\(bu" 4 install .Sp Copy the contents of the \f(CW\*(C`blib\*(C'\fR directory into the appropriate directories in your Perl installation. .IP "\(bu" 4 dist .Sp Create a distribution tarball, ready for uploading to \s-1CPAN\s0 or sharing with a friend. .IP "\(bu" 4 clean distclean purge .Sp Remove the files created by \f(CW\*(C`perl Makefile.PL\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`make\*(C'\fR. .IP "\(bu" 4 help .Sp Same as typing \f(CW\*(C`perldoc ExtUtils::MakeMaker\*(C'\fR. .PP This module modifies the behaviour of some of these targets, depending on your requirements, and also adds the following targets to your Makefile: .IP "\(bu" 4 cpurge .Sp Just like purge, except that it also deletes the files originally added by this module itself. .IP "\(bu" 4 chelp .Sp Short cut for typing \f(CW\*(C`perldoc Module::Install\*(C'\fR. .IP "\(bu" 4 distsign .Sp Short cut for typing \f(CW\*(C`cpansign \-s\*(C'\fR, for \fBModule::Signature\fR users to sign the distribution before release. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" Module::Install, CPAN::MakeMaker, CPAN::MakeMaker::Philosophy .SH "AUTHORS" .IX Header "AUTHORS" Adam Kennedy .PP Audrey Tang .PP Brian Ingerson .SH "COPYRIGHT" .IX Header "COPYRIGHT" Some parts copyright 2008 \- 2012 Adam Kennedy. .PP Copyright 2002, 2003, 2004 Audrey Tang and Brian Ingerson. .PP This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
