NAME
       [Module::Build::Base](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Module%3A%3ABuild%3A%3ABase/markdown) - Default methods for [Module::Build](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Module%3A%3ABuild/markdown)

SYNOPSIS
         Please see the [Module::Build](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Module%3A%3ABuild/markdown) documentation.

DESCRIPTION
       The "[Module::Build::Base](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Module%3A%3ABuild%3A%3ABase/markdown)" module defines the core functionality of
       "[Module::Build](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Module%3A%3ABuild/markdown)".  Its methods may be overridden by any of the platform-
       dependent modules in the "[Module::Build::Platform](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Module%3A%3ABuild%3A%3APlatform/markdown)::" namespace, but the
       intention here is to make this base module as platform-neutral as
       possible.  Nicely enough, Perl has several core tools available in the
       "File::" namespace for doing this, so the task isn't very difficult.

       Please see the "[Module::Build](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/perldoc/Module%3A%3ABuild/markdown)" documentation for more details.
