Changes for version 0.03

  • The 'perl Build.PL' step will now detect whether the current environment is "unixish", "windowsish", etc., and load the correct module (i.e. Module::Build::Platform::Unix). More specific modules may also be written for particular values of $^O.
  • Module::Build will now process any .xs files in the lib/ directory. Please let me know whether this works or not with your distribution & platform. I'll be trying out various distributions on my platform.
  • Corrected some embarassing errors in the POD documentation. Also added a long documentation section on the various build actions (test, install, build, etc.) and added some neato ASCII art.
  • Added a 'cleanup' mechanism - any method may call the $self->add_to_cleanup(@files) method to register files which need to be cleaned up during 'Build clean'.
  • Added a 'Build help' action that gives a little syntax help, and lists all the actions available.
  • Fixed a bug in which 'blib/' wasn't properly being added to @INC when running 'Build test'.
  • For the 'Build dist' action, we'll use the 'tar' and 'gzip' programs (as specified by Config.pm) on Unix platforms, otherwise we'll use Archive::Tar and Compress::Zlib.
