ExtUtils::testlib(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation ExtUtils::testlib(3)NAME
ExtUtils::testlib - add blib/* directories to @INC
SYNOPSIS
use ExtUtils::testlib;
DESCRIPTION
After an extension has been built and before it is installed it may be desirable to test it bypassing "make test". By adding
use ExtUtils::testlib;
to a test program the intermediate directories used by "make" are added to @INC.

Module::Install::MakeMaker - Extension Rules for ExtUtils::MakeMaker
SYNOPSIS
In your Makefile.PL:
use inc::Module::Install;
WriteMakefile();
DESCRIPTION
This module is a wrapper around ExtUtils::MakeMaker. It exports two functions: "prompt" (an alias for "ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt") and
"WriteMakefile".
The "WriteMakefile" function will pass on keyword/value pair functions to "ExtUtils::MakeMaker::WriteMakefile". The required parameters
"NAME" and "VERSION" (or "VERSION_FROM") are not necessary if it can find them unambiguously in your code.
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
This module also adds some Configuration parameters of its own:
NAME
The NAME parameter is required by ExtUtils::MakeMaker. If you have a single module in your distribution, or if the module name indicated by
the current directory exists under lib/, this module will use the guessed package name as the default.
If this module can't find a default for "NAME" it will ask you to specify it manually.
VERSION
ExtUtils::MakeMaker requires either the "VERSION" or "VERSION_FROM" parameter. If this module can guess the package's "NAME", it will
attempt to parse the "VERSION" from it.
If this module can't find a default for "VERSION" it will ask you to specify it manually.
MAKE TARGETS
ExtUtils::MakeMaker provides you with many useful "make" targets. A "make" target is the word you specify after "make", like "test" for
"make test". Some of the more useful targets are:
o all
This is the default target. When you type "make" it is the same as entering "make all". This target builds all of your code and stages
it in the "blib" directory.
o test
Run your distribution's test suite.
o install
Copy the contents of the "blib" directory into the appropriate directories in your Perl installation.
o dist
Create a distribution tarball, ready for uploading to CPAN or sharing with a friend.
o clean distclean purge
Remove the files created by "perl Makefile.PL" and "make".
o help
Same as typing "perldoc ExtUtils::MakeMaker".
This module modifies the behaviour of some of these targets, depending on your requirements, and also adds the following targets to your
Makefile:
o cpurge
Just like purge, except that it also deletes the files originally added by this module itself.
o chelp
Short cut for typing "perldoc Module::Install".
o distsign
Short cut for typing "cpansign -s", for Module::Signature users to sign the distribution before release.
