NAME

ExtUtils::MakeMaker::CPANfile - cpanfile support for EUMM

SYNOPSIS

# Makefile.PL
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker::CPANfile;

WriteMakefile(
  NAME => 'Foo::Bar',
  AUTHOR => 'A.U.Thor <author@cpan.org>',
);

# cpanfile
requires 'ExtUtils::MakeMaker' => '6.17';
on test => sub {
  requires 'Test::More' => '0.88';
};

DESCRIPTION

ExtUtils::MakeMaker::CPANfile loads cpanfile in your distribution and modifies parameters for WriteMakefile in your Makefile.PL. Just use it instead of ExtUtils::MakeMaker (which should be loaded internally), and prepare cpanfile.

As of version 0.03, ExtUtils::MakeMaker::CPANfile also removes WriteMakefile parameters that the installed version of ExtUtils::MakeMaker doesn't know, to avoid warnings.

LIMITATION

As of this writing, complex version ranges are simply ignored.

FOR MODULE AUTHORS

Thoguh the minimum version requirement of ExtUtils::MakeMaker is arbitrary set to 6.17 (the one bundled in Perl 5.8.1), you need at least EUMM 6.52 (with CONFIGURE_REQUIRES support) when you release a distribution.
