[BUG FIXES]
- In the 'installdeps' action, w don't need to check for an
executable bit on the CPAN client, just try executing it.
Otherwise we needlessly fail on e.g. VMS.
- Actually handle utf8 correctly in utf8-man tests. [Leon Timmermans]
- Don't clobber standard array/hash attributes in subclasses that
have their own array/hash attributes. [Graham Ollis]
- We now allow underscores in package names, when extracting the
name & abstract from POD. [Ricardo Signes, Shlomi Fish]
- When building HTML docs, fix a problem with setting the --htmlroot
argument. [Ken Williams]
- Lower Test::More dependency in the test metadata, so distgen
output won't mess up console with older Test::More installed.
[Tatsuhiko Miyagawa]
- Revised detildification on VMS [Craig Berry]
- Fix run_test_harness for case when $Switches is an empty string
[Victor Efimov, Ken Williams]
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- Significantly sped up some tests by not forcing HTML docs to be
built when the user's config doesn't ask for them anyway.
[Ken Williams]
- The Module::Metadata package was split out from this distro back
in 2010. Removed its regression tests. [Ken Williams]
- Removed dependence on IO::File, replacing it with safe invocations
of open(). [Sven Dowideit]
- Added an 'extra_manify_args' parameter to facilitate man pages
containing Unicode. [Joenio Costa]
- Added an '--html_links 0' argument for the 'html' action, which
can hugely speed things up. The main effect is speeding up the
M::B tests themselves. [Ken Williams]
- Added continuous integration support for the Module::Build code
itself, through the Travis-CI project
(https://travis-ci.org/). [Tatsuhiko Miyagawa, Olivier Mengué]
[DOCUMENTATION]
- Removed suggestion in the INSTALL document to use the Makefile.PL
for installation. Making the Makefile.PL lower-profile in
general. [Ken Williams]
- Fix link from UpperCase CPAN::META::Spec to CPAN::Meta::Spec in
API.pod. [Sven Dowideit]
[OTHER]
- Removed unused platform specific modules that never contained
anything. [Leon Timmermans]
- Lots of typo fixes in comments & documentation. [David Steinbrunner]
0.4005 - Thu Apr 25 15:10:14 CEST 2013
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- Added --pureperl-only support
[BUG FIXES]
- #72176: pod2html will fail with an empty podpath in some cases. [Phillip Moore]
- Fix links between modules in HTML docs output [Michael Wild, Leon Timmermans]

"Module::Build" is a system for building, testing, and installing Perl
|
|
|
|
modules. It is meant to be an alternative to "ExtUtils::MakeMaker".
|
|
|
|
Developers may alter the behavior of the module through subclassing in a
|
|
|
|
much more straightforward way than with "MakeMaker". It also does not
|
|
|
|
require a "make" on your system - most of the "Module::Build" code is
|
|
|
|
pure-perl and written in a very cross-platform way. See "MOTIVATIONS" for
|
|
|
|
more comparisons between "ExtUtils::MakeMaker" and "Module::Build". To
|
|
|
|
install "Module::Build", and any other module that uses "Module::Build" for
|
|
|
|
its installation process, do the following: perl Build.PL # 'Build.PL'
|
|
|
|
script creates the 'Build' script ./Build # Need ./ to ensure we're using
|
|
|
|
this "Build" script ./Build test # and not another one that happens to be
|
|
|
|
in the PATH ./Build install This illustrates initial configuration and the
|
|
|
|
running of three 'actions'. In this case the actions run are 'build' (the
|
|
|
|
default action), 'test', and 'install'. Other actions defined so far
|
|
|
|
include: build manifest clean manifest_skip code manpages config_data
|
|
|
|
pardist diff ppd dist ppmdist distcheck prereq_data distclean prereq_report
|
|
|
|
distdir pure_install distinstall realclean distmeta retest distsign
|
|
|
|
skipcheck disttest test docs testall fakeinstall testcover help testdb html
|
|
|
|
testpod install testpodcoverage installdeps versioninstall You can run the
|
|
|
|
'help' action for a complete list of actions.
