Alien::Build::Plugin::Build::Make(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation
NAME
Alien::Build::Plugin::Build::Make - Make plugin for Alien::Build
VERSION
version 2.80
SYNOPSIS
use alienfile;
# For a recipe that requires GNU Make
plugin 'Build::Make' => 'gmake';
DESCRIPTION
By default Alien::Build provides a helper for the "make" that is used
by Perl and ExtUtils::MakeMaker itself. This is handy, because it is
the one make that you can mostly guarantee that you will have.
Unfortunately it may be a "make" that isn't supported by the library or
tool that you are trying to alienize. This is mostly a problem on
Windows, where the supported "make"s for years were Microsoft's "nmake"
and Sun's "dmake", which many open source projects do not use. This
plugin will alter the alienfile recipe to use a different "make". It
may (as in the case of "gmake" / Alien::gmake) automatically download
and install an alienized version of that "make" if it is not already
installed.
This plugin should NOT be used with other plugins that replace the
"make" helper, like Alien::Build::Plugin::Build::CMake,
Alien::Build::Plugin::Build::Autoconf,
Alien::Build::Plugin::Build::MSYS. This plugin is intended instead for
projects that use vanilla makefiles of a specific type.
This plugin is for now distributed separately from Alien::Build, but
the intention is for it to soon become a core plugin for Alien::Build.
