| Summary : Perl Preprocessor
|
Description :
Perl\'s installation suite, ExtUtils::MakeMaker, contains a mechanism for
installing preparsed files, so-called _PL_ files: If the MakeMaker utility
detects files with the extension \'.PL\' then these files are executed by
_make_, usually creating a file of the same name, except the \'.PL\'
extension.
Writing these PL files is usually always the same, for example a typical
\'.PL\' file might look like this:
my $script = < < \'SCRIPT\';
... # True file following here
SCRIPT
...
if (!open(FILE, \">file\") || !(print FILE $script) ||
!close(FILE)) {
die \"Cannot write file: $!\";
}
But in essence, what else is this than a Perl preprocessor?
Traditionally you have to write such a Perl preprocessor for yourself all
the time, although I have found that they always do the same, for example:
* -
Fix defaults, for example installation paths.
* -
Including or excluding code sections. It is a matter of taste whether one
likes to see
if ($] < 5.003) {
...
} else {
...
}
when already using Perl 5.005. I don\'t.
This module is dedicated to simplify such tasks. In short, you can use it
like this:
