✨ NAME ✨

ExtUtils::Builder::Linker — bestie, it's literally an interface around different linkers. 💅 (Yes this is the <cyan>3pm</cyan> page, the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of the world, come sit with me.)

🎀 VERSION 🎀

This is version 0.037 — that's the one we're vibing with rn. ✨

💖 METHODS 💖

🌸 new

Okay so when you call new, here's the tea on what you can hand it: 🫶

  • type — bestie this one is NOT optional in spirit, it has to be exactly one of these four strings:
    • "executable"
    • "shared-library"
    • "loadable-object"
    • "static-library"
  • libraries — the libraries, as one does. 👑
  • library_dirs — the dirs where those libraries live. 📁
  • export — the export situation. 🌈

🦋 add_library_dirs

Adds more library directories. More dirs, more slay. ✨ (Yes it's a separate method, no I don't make the rules, the linker does. 😭)

🍓 add_libraries

Adds more libraries. Same energy as above, different noun, still iconic. 💜

The main character of this whole page tbh. You give it a $source, you give it a $target, and then a %options — because of course there are options, there are always options. 🔥

Not me closing this out with the boring-but-required bits: this page ships with perl v5.40.1, dated 2026-06-12, and it's the ExtUti...:Linker(3pm) page from your friendly neighborhood User Contributed Perl Documentation. 🎀 Byeee, go link something iconic. ✨💖
