ExtUtils::Mkbootstrap(3)

NAME
     ExtUtils::Mkbootstrap - make a bootstrap file for use by DynaLoader

SYNOPSIS
     mkbootstrap

DESCRIPTION
     Mkbootstrap typically gets called from an extension Makefile.

     There is no *.bs file supplied with the extension. Instead a *_BS file
     which has code for the special cases, like posix for berkeley db on the
     NeXT.

     This file will get parsed, and produce a maybe empty
     @DynaLoader::dl_resolve_using array for the current architecture.  That
     will be extended by $BSLOADLIBS, which was computed by
     ExtUtils::Liblist::ext(). If this array still is empty, we do nothing,
     else we write a .bs file with an @DynaLoader::dl_resolve_using array.

     The *_BS file can put some code into the generated *.bs file by placing
     it in $bscode. This is a handy 'escape' mechanism that may prove useful
     in complex situations.

     If @DynaLoader::dl_resolve_using contains -L* or -l* entries then
     Mkbootstrap will automatically add a dl_findfile() call to the generated
     *.bs file.
