ExtUtils::MM_Win32 \- methods to override UN*X behaviour in ExtUtils::MakeMaker

\& use ExtUtils::MM_Win32; # Done internally by ExtUtils::MakeMaker if needed
.Ve
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
See ExtUtils::MM_Unix for a documentation of the methods provided
there. This package overrides the implementation of these methods, not
the semantics.

.PD 0
.IP "replace_manpage_separator" 4
.IX Item "replace_manpage_separator"
.PD
Changes the path separator with .
.IP "\fBmaybe_command\fR" 4
.IX Item "maybe_command"
Since Windows has nothing as simple as an executable bit, we check the
file extension.
.Sp
The \s-1PATHEXT\s0 env variable will be used to get a list of extensions that
might indicate a command, otherwise .com, .exe, .bat and .cmd will be
used by default.
.IP "\fBfind_tests\fR" 4
.IX Item "find_tests"
The Win9x shell does not expand globs and I'll play it safe and assume
other Windows variants don't either.
.Sp
So we do it for them.
.IP "\fBinit_DIRFILESEP\fR" 4
.IX Item "init_DIRFILESEP"
Using \e for Windows.
.IP "\fBinit_others\fR" 4
.IX Item "init_others"
Override some of the Unix specific commands with portable
ExtUtils::Command ones.
.Sp
Also provide defaults for \s-1LD\s0 and \s-1AR\s0 in case the \f(CW%Config\fR values aren't
set.
.Sp
\&\s-1LDLOADLIBS\s0's default is changed to \f(CW$Config\fR{libs}.
.Sp
Adjustments are made for Borland's quirks needing \-L to come first.
.IP "init_platform (o)" 4
.IX Item "init_platform (o)"
Add MM_Win32_VERSION.
.IP "platform_constants (o)" 4
.IX Item "platform_constants (o)"
.PD 0
.IP "special_targets (o)" 4
.IX Item "special_targets (o)"
.PD
Add .USESHELL target for dmake.
.IP "static_lib (o)" 4
.IX Item "static_lib (o)"
Changes how to run the linker.
.Sp
The rest is duplicate code from MM_Unix.  Should move the linker code
to its own method.
.IP "dynamic_lib (o)" 4
.IX Item "dynamic_lib (o)"
Complicated stuff for Win32 that I don't understand. :(
.IP "clean" 4
.IX Item "clean"
Clean out some extra dll.{base,exp} files which might be generated by
gcc.  Otherwise, take out all *.pdb files.
.IP "init_linker" 4
.IX Item "init_linker"
.PD 0
.IP "perl_script" 4
.IX Item "perl_script"
.PD
Checks for the perl program under several common perl extensions.
.IP "xs_o (o)" 4
.IX Item "xs_o (o)"
This target is stubbed out.  Not sure why.
.IP "pasthru (o)" 4
.IX Item "pasthru (o)"
All we send is \-nologo to nmake to prevent it from printing its damned
banner.
.IP "oneliner (o)" 4
.IX Item "oneliner (o)"
These are based on what command.com does on Win98.  They may be wrong
for other Windows shells, I don't know.
.IP "max_exec_len" 4
.IX Item "max_exec_len"
nmake 1.50 limits command length to 2048 characters.

Windows is Win32.
