ExtUtils::Miniperl - phpMan

NAME
    ExtUtils::Miniperl - write the C code for miniperlmain.c and perlmain.c

SYNOPSIS
        use ExtUtils::Miniperl;
        writemain(@directories);
        # or
        writemain($fh, @directories);
        # or
        writemain(\$filename, @directories);

DESCRIPTION
    "writemain()" takes an argument list of zero or more directories
    containing archive libraries that relate to perl modules and should be
    linked into a new perl binary. It writes a corresponding miniperlmain.c
    or 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. If the first argument to "writemain()" is a reference to a
    scalar it is used as the filename to open for output. Any other
    reference is used as the filehandle to write to. Otherwise output
    defaults to "STDOUT".

    The typical usage is from within perl's own Makefile (to build
    perlmain.c) or from regen/miniperlmain.pl (to build miniperlmain.c). So
    under normal circumstances you won't have to deal with this module
    directly.
