NAME

mktest.pl - Configure, build and test bleading edge perl

SYNOPSIS

$ ./mktest.pl [options] smoke.cfg

OPTIONS

• -n | --norun | --dry-run

• -v | --verbose [ level ]

• -m | --win32-maker <dmake | nmake>

• -c | --win32-cctype <BORLAND | GCC | MSVC20 | MSVC | MSVC60>

• -s | --smoker <your-email-address>

All remaining arguments in @ARGV are used for MSWin32 to tweak values in Config.pm and should be key=value pairs.

METHODS

is_win32( )

is_win32() returns true if $^O eq "MSWin32".

run( $command[, $sub] )

run() returns qx( $command ) unless $sub is specified. If $sub is defined (and a coderef) $sub->( $command ) will be called.

make( $command )

make() calls run( "make $command" ), and does some extra stuff to help MSWin32 (the right maker, the directory).

ttylog( @message )

ttylog() prints @message to both STDOUT and the logfile.

Configure_win32( $command )

Configure_win32() alters the settings of the makefile for MSWin32. It supports these options:

• -Duseperlio

  set USE_PERLIO = define (default)

• -Dusethreads

  set USE_ITHREADS = define (also sets USE_MULTI and USE_IMP_SYS)

• -Duseithreads: set USE_ITHREADS = define

  set USE_ITHREADS = define (also sets USE_MULTI and USE_IMP_SYS)

• -Dusemultiplicity

  sets USE_MULTI = define (also sets USE_ITHREADS and USE_IMP_SYS)

• -Duseimpsys

  sets USE_IMP_SYS = define (also sets USE_ITHREADS and USE_MULTI)

• -DDEBUGGING

  sets CFG = Debug

• -DINST_DRV=...

  sets INST_DRV to a new value (default is "c:")

• -DINST_TOP=...

  sets INST_DRV to a new value (default is "$(INST_DRV)\perl")

get_cfg_filename( )

get_cfg_filename() tries to find a cfg file and returns it.

skip_filter( $line )

skip_filter() returns true if the filter rules apply to $line.
