.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
ExtUtils::Config is an abstraction around the \f(CW%Config\fR hash. By itself it is not a particularly interesting module by any measure, however it ties together a family of modern toolchain modules.
.SH METHODS
.IX Header "METHODS"
.SS new(\e%config)
.IX Subsection "new(%config)"
Create a new ExtUtils::Config object. The values in \f(CW\*(C`\e%config\*(C'\fR are used to initialize the object.
.SS get($key)
.IX Subsection "get($key)"
Get the value of \f(CW$key\fR. If not overridden it will return the value in \f(CW%Config\fR.
.SS exists($key)
.IX Subsection "exists($key)"
Tests for the existence of \f(CW$key\fR.
.SS but(\e%keys)
.IX Subsection "but(%keys)"
This creates a new \f(CW\*(C`ExtUtils::Config\*(C'\fR object based on the current one, but with the values in \f(CW%keys\fR replacing the current values. Any undefined value means it will be removed from the overriden set.
.SS \fBvalues_set()\fP
.IX Subsection "values_set()"
Get a hashref of all overridden values.
.SS \fBall_config()\fP
.IX Subsection "all_config()"
Get a hashref of the complete configuration, including overrides.
.SS \fBserialize()\fP
.IX Subsection "serialize()"
This method serializes the object to some kind of string. This can be useful for various caching purposes.
