NAME¶

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

SYNOPSIS¶

 use ExtUtils::MM_Cygwin; # Done internally by ExtUtils::MakeMaker if needed

DESCRIPTION¶

See ExtUtils::MM_Unix for a documentation of the methods provided there.

os_flavor

We're Unix and Cygwin.

cflags

if configured for dynamic loading, triggers #define EXT in EXTERN.h

replace_manpage_separator

replaces strings '::' with '.' in MAN*POD man page names

init_linker

points to libperl.a

maybe_command

Determine whether a file is native to Cygwin by checking whether it resides inside the Cygwin installation (using Windows paths). If so, use ExtUtils::MM_Unix to determine if it may be a command. Otherwise use the tests from ExtUtils::MM_Win32.

dynamic_lib

Use the default to produce the *.dll's. But for new archdir dll's use the same rebase address if the old exists.

install

Rebase dll's with the global rebase database after installation.
