NAME

6       Apache2::Build - Methods for locating and parsing bits of Apache source
7       code
8

SYNOPSIS

10        use Apache2::Build ();
11        my $build = Apache2::Build->new;
12
13        # rebuild mod_perl with build opts from the previous build
14        % cd modperl-2.0
15        % perl -MApache2::Build -e rebuild
16

DESCRIPTION

18       This module provides methods for locating and parsing bits of Apache
19       source code.
20
21       Since mod_perl remembers what build options were used to build it, you
22       can use this knowledge to rebuild it using the same options. Simply
23       chdir to the mod_perl source directory and run:
24
25         % cd modperl-2.0
26         % perl -MApache2::Build -e rebuild
27
28       If you want to rebuild not yet installed, but already built mod_perl,
29       run from its root directory:
30
31         % perl -Ilib -MApache2::Build -e rebuild
32

METHODS

34       new Create an object blessed into the Apache2::Build class.
35
36            my $build = Apache2::Build->new;
37
38       dir Top level directory where source files are located.
39
40            my $dir = $build->dir;
41            -d $dir or die "can't stat $dir $!\n";
42
43       find
44           Searches for apache source directories, return a list of those
45           found.
46
47           Example:
48
49            for my $dir ($build->find) {
50               my $yn = prompt "Configure with $dir ?", "y";
51               ...
52            }
53
54       inc Print include paths for MakeMaker's INC argument to
55           "WriteMakefile".
56
57           Example:
58
59            use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
60
61            use Apache2::Build ();
62
63            WriteMakefile(
64                'NAME'    => 'Apache2::Module',
65                'VERSION' => '0.01',
66                'INC'     => Apache2::Build->new->inc,
67            );
68
69       module_magic_number
70           Return the MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER defined in the apache source.
71
72           Example:
73
74            my $mmn = $build->module_magic_number;
75
76       httpd_version
77           Return the server version.
78
79           Example:
80
81            my $v = $build->httpd_version;
82
83       otherldflags
84           Return other ld flags for MakeMaker's dynamic_lib argument to
85           "WriteMakefile". This might be needed on systems like AIX that need
86           special flags to the linker to be able to reference mod_perl or
87           httpd symbols.
88
89           Example:
90
91            use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
92
93            use Apache2::Build ();
94
95            WriteMakefile(
96                'NAME'        => 'Apache2::Module',
97                'VERSION'     => '0.01',
98                'INC'         => Apache2::Build->new->inc,
99                'dynamic_lib' => {
100                    'OTHERLDFLAGS' => Apache2::Build->new->otherldflags,
101                },
102            );
