NAME ExtUtils::CppGuess - guess C++ compiler and flags
SYNOPSIS With Extutils::MakeMaker:
use ExtUtils::CppGuess;
my $guess = ExtUtils::CppGuess->new;
WriteMakefile
( # MakeMaker args,
$guess->makemaker_options,
);
With Module::Build:
my $guess = ExtUtils::CppGuess->new;
my $build = Module::Build->new
( # Module::Build arguments
$guess->module_build_options,
);
$build->create_build_script;
DESCRIPTION "ExtUtils::CppGuess" attempts to guess the system's C++ compiler that is compatible with the C compiler that your perl was built with.
It can generate the necessary options to the Module::Build constructor
or to ExtUtils::MakeMaker's "WriteMakefile" function.
METHODS new Creates a new "ExtUtils::CppGuess" object. Takes the path to the C compiler as the "cc" argument, but falls back to the value of $Config{cc}, which should be what you want anyway.
You can specify "extra_compiler_flags" and "extra_linker_flags" (as
strings) which will be merged in with the auto-detected ones.
module_build_options Returns the correct options to the constructor of "Module::Build". These are:
extra_compiler_flags
extra_linker_flags
makemaker_options Returns the correct options to the "WriteMakefile" function of "ExtUtils::MakeMaker". These are:
CCFLAGS
dynamic_lib => { OTHERLDFLAGS => ... }
If you specify the extra compiler or linker flags in the constructor,
they'll be merged into "CCFLAGS" or "OTHERLDFLAGS" respectively.
is_gcc Returns true if the detected compiler is in the gcc family.
is_msvc Returns true if the detected compiler is in the MS VC family.
add_extra_compiler_flags Takes a string as argument that is added to the string of extra compiler flags.
add_extra_linker_flags Takes a string as argument that is added to the string of extra linker flags.
