ExtUtils::Miniperl(3)

NAME
     ExtUtils::Miniperl, writemain - write the C code for perlmain.c

SYNOPSIS
     use ExtUtils::Miniperl;

     writemain(@directories);

DESCRIPTION
     This whole module is written when perl itself is built from a script
     called minimod.PL. In case you want to patch it, please patch minimod.PL
     in the perl distribution instead.

     writemain() takes an argument list of directories containing archive
     libraries that relate to perl modules and should be linked into a new
     perl binary. It writes to STDOUT a corresponding perlmain.c file that is
     a plain C file containing all the bootstrap code to make the modules
     associated with the libraries available from within perl.

     The typical usage is from within a Makefile generated by
     ExtUtils::MakeMaker. So under normal circumstances you won't have to deal
     with this module directly.
