🎀 NAME 🎀

okay bestie, this is the ExtUtils::MM_DOS(3pm) page from the Perl Programmers Reference Guide — and it's all about ExtUtils::MM_DOS, the DOS specific subclass of ExtUtils::MM_Unix. That's the name, that's the vibe, periodt. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Bestie, for real: do not use this module directly. Let ExtUtils::MM choose instead. It said what it said.

Don't use this module directly.
Use ExtUtils::MM and let it choose.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

ExtUtils::MM_DOS is a subclass of ExtUtils::MM_Unix that contains functionality for DOS. Unless otherwise stated, it works just like ExtUtils::MM_Unix — same behavior, cute little DOS twist. ✨

🌈 Overridden methods 🌈

These are the methods it overrides, no cap:

  • os_flavor — overridden, that's it. 💛
  • replace_manpage_separator — generates Foo__Bar.3 style man page names. Obsessed with that double-underscore moment. ✨
  • xs_static_lib_is_xs — overridden, periodt. 💅
