This package overrides the implementation of these methods, not the semantics. .SS "Overridden methods" .IX Subsection "Overridden methods" .IP "\fBdlsyms\fR" 4 .IX Item "dlsyms" .PD 0 .IP "replace_manpage_separator" 4 .IX Item "replace_manpage_separator" .PD Changes the path separator with . .IP "\fBmaybe_command\fR" 4 .IX Item "maybe_command" Since Windows has nothing as simple as an executable bit, we check the file extension. .Sp The \s-1PATHEXT\s0 env variable will be used to get a list of extensions that might indicate a command, otherwise .com, .exe, .bat and .cmd will be used by default. .IP "\fBinit_DIRFILESEP\fR" 4 .IX Item "init_DIRFILESEP" Using \e for Windows, except for \*(L"gmake\*(R" where it is /. .IP "init_tools" 4 .IX Item "init_tools" Override some of the slower, portable commands with Windows specific ones. .IP "init_others" 4 .IX Item "init_others" Override the default link and compile tools. .Sp \&\s-1LDLOADLIBS\s0's default is changed to \f(CW$Config\fR{libs}. .Sp Adjustments are made for Borland's quirks needing \-L to come first. .IP "init_platform" 4 .IX Item "init_platform" Add MM_Win32_VERSION. .IP "platform_constants" 4 .IX Item "platform_constants" .PD 0 .IP "constants" 4 .IX Item "constants" .PD Add \s-1MAXLINELENGTH\s0 for dmake before all the constants are output. .IP "special_targets" 4 .IX Item "special_targets" Add .USESHELL target for dmake. .IP "static_lib" 4 .IX Item "static_lib" Changes how to run the linker. .Sp The rest is duplicate code from MM_Unix. Should move the linker code to its own method. .IP "dynamic_lib" 4 .IX Item "dynamic_lib" Complicated stuff for Win32 that I don't understand. :( .IP "extra_clean_files" 4 .IX Item "extra_clean_files" Clean out some extra dll.{base,exp} files which might be generated by gcc. Otherwise, take out all *.pdb files. .IP "init_linker" 4 .IX Item "init_linker" .PD 0 .IP "perl_script" 4 .IX Item "perl_script" .PD Checks for the perl program under several common perl extensions. .IP "quote_dep" 4 .IX Item "quote_dep" .PD 0 .IP "xs_o" 4 .IX Item "xs_o" .PD This target is stubbed out. Not sure why. .IP "pasthru" 4 .IX Item "pasthru" All we send is \-nologo to nmake to prevent it from printing its damned banner. .IP "arch_check (override)" 4 .IX Item "arch_check (override)" Normalize all arguments for consistency of comparison. .IP "oneliner" 4 .IX Item "oneliner" These are based on what command.com does on Win98. They may be wrong for other Windows shells, I don't know. .IP "cd" 4 .IX Item "cd" dmake can handle Unix style cd'ing but nmake (at least 1.5) cannot. It wants: .Sp .Vb 4 \& cd dir1\edir2 \& command \& another_command \& cd ..\e.. .Ve .IP "max_exec_len" 4 .IX Item "max_exec_len" nmake 1.50 limits command length to 2048 characters. .IP "os_flavor" 4 .IX Item "os_flavor" Windows is Win32. .IP "cflags" 4 .IX Item "cflags" Defines the \s-1PERLDLL\s0 symbol if we are configured for static building since all code destined for the perl5xx.dll must be compiled with the \s-1PERLDLL\s0 symbol defined.
