NAME

6       ExtUtils::MM_Win32 - methods to override UN*X behaviour in
7       ExtUtils::MakeMaker
8

SYNOPSIS

10        use ExtUtils::MM_Win32; # Done internally by ExtUtils::MakeMaker if needed
11

DESCRIPTION

13       See ExtUtils::MM_Unix for a documentation of the methods provided
14       there. This package overrides the implementation of these methods, not
15       the semantics.
16
17   Overridden methods
18       dlsyms
19       replace_manpage_separator
20           Changes the path separator with .
21
22       maybe_command
23           Since Windows has nothing as simple as an executable bit, we check
24           the file extension.
25
26           The PATHEXT env variable will be used to get a list of extensions
27           that might indicate a command, otherwise .com, .exe, .bat and .cmd
28           will be used by default.
29
30       init_DIRFILESEP
31           Using \ for Windows.
32
33       init_others
34           Override some of the Unix specific commands with portable
35           ExtUtils::Command ones.
36
37           Also provide defaults for LD and AR in case the %Config values
38           aren't set.
39
40           LDLOADLIBS's default is changed to $Config{libs}.
41
42           Adjustments are made for Borland's quirks needing -L to come first.
43
44       init_platform
45           Add MM_Win32_VERSION.
46
47       platform_constants
48       special_targets
49           Add .USESHELL target for dmake.
50
51       static_lib
52           Changes how to run the linker.
53
54           The rest is duplicate code from MM_Unix.  Should move the linker
55           code to its own method.
56
57       dynamic_lib
58           Complicated stuff for Win32 that I don't understand. :(
59
60       extra_clean_files
61           Clean out some extra dll.{base,exp} files which might be generated
62           by gcc.  Otherwise, take out all *.pdb files.
63
64       init_linker
65       perl_script
66           Checks for the perl program under several common perl extensions.
67
68       xs_o
69           This target is stubbed out.  Not sure why.
70
71       pasthru
72           All we send is -nologo to nmake to prevent it from printing its
73           damned banner.
74
75       arch_check (override)
76           Normalize all arguments for consistency of comparison.
77
78       oneliner
79           These are based on what command.com does on Win98.  They may be
80           wrong for other Windows shells, I don't know.
81
82       cd  dmake can handle Unix style cd'ing but nmake (at least 1.5) cannot.
83           It wants:
84
85               cd dir1\dir2
86               command
87               another_command
88               cd ..\..
89
90       max_exec_len
91           nmake 1.50 limits command length to 2048 characters.
92
93       os_flavor
94           Windows is Win32.
95
96       cflags
97           Defines the PERLDLL symbol if we are configured for static building
98           since all code destined for the perl5xx.dll must be compiled with
99           the PERLDLL symbol defined.
