NAME

Alien::Box2D - Build and make available Box2D library - http://box2d.org/

VERSION

Version 0.102

SYNOPSIS

Alien::Box2D during its installation does one of the following:

  • Builds ODE binaries from source codes and installs dev files (headers: *.h, static library: *.a) into share directory of Alien::Box2D distribution.

Later you can use Alien::Box2D in your module that needs to link with libode like this:

# Sample Build.pl
use Module::Build;
use Alien::Box2D;

my $build = Module::Build->new(
  module_name => 'Any::Box2D::Module',
  # + other params
  build_requires => {
                'Alien::Box2D' => 0,
                # + others modules
  },
  configure_requires => {
                'Alien::Box2D' => 0,
                # + others modules
  },
  extra_compiler_flags => Alien::Box2D->config('cflags'),
  extra_linker_flags   => Alien::Box2D->config('libs'),
)->create_build_script;

NOTE: Alien::Box2D is required only for building not for using 'Any::Box2D::Module'.
