6 FFI::Build::MM - FFI::Build installer code for ExtUtils::MakeMaker
7
9 version 1.56
10
12 In your Makefile.PL:
13
14 use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
15 use FFI::Build::MM;
16
17 my $fbmm = FFI::Build::MM->new;
18
19 WriteMakefile($fbmm->mm_args(
20 ABSTRACT => 'My FFI extension',
21 DISTNAME => 'Foo-Bar-Baz-FFI',
22 NAME => 'Foo::Bar::Baz::FFI',
23 VERSION_FROM => 'lib/Foo/Bar/Baz/FFI.pm',
24 ...
25 ));
26
27 sub MY::postamble {
28 $fbmm->mm_postamble;
29 }
30
31 Then put the C, C++ or Fortran files in "./ffi" for your runtime
32 library and "./t/ffi" for your test time library.
33
35 This module provides a thin layer between FFI::Build and
36 ExtUtils::MakeMaker. Its interface is influenced by the design of
37 Alien::Build::MM. The idea is that for your distribution you throw
38 some C, C++ or Fortran source files into a directory called "ffi" and
39 these files will be compiled and linked into a library that can be used
40 by your module. There is a control file "ffi/*.fbx" which can be used
41 to control the compiler and linker options. (options passed directly
42 into FFI::Build). The interface for this file is still under
43 development.
44
46 new
47 my $fbmm = FFI::Build::MM->new;
48
49 Create a new instance of FFI::Build::MM.
50
52 mm_args
53 my %new_args = $fbmm->mm_args(%old_args);
54
55 This method does two things:
56
57 reads the arguments to determine sensible defaults (library name,
58 install location, etc).
59 adjusts the arguments as necessary and returns an updated set of
60 arguments.
61
62 mm_postamble
63 my $postamble = $fbmm->mm_postamble;
64
65 This returns the Makefile postamble used by ExtUtils::MakeMaker. The
66 synopsis above for how to invoke it properly. It adds the following
67 Make targets:
68
69 fbx_build / ffi
70 build the main runtime library in "./ffi".
71
72 fbx_test / ffi-test
73 Build the test library in "./t/ffi".
74
75 fbx_clean / ffi-clean
76 Clean any runtime or test libraries already built.
77
78 Normally you do not need to build these targets manually, they will be
79 built automatically at the appropriate stage.
