Hi,
I'm wanting to insert my own sub MY::xs_o() into a Makefile.PL, but I want the sub to be visible only if $Config{make} eq 'nmake'.
So I wrote in the Makefile.PL:
if($Config{make} eq 'nmake') { sub MY::xs_o {"text to insert in Makefile"} }
That worked fine - except that sub MY::xs_o() is visible (and is enacted) even if $Config{make} is *not* 'nmake'.
Is there a way I can get the behaviour I'm after ?
Well ... one way is to write my 'sub MY::xs_o' into an external file (let's call it 'for_nmake.MY') and then in the Makefile.PL put:
if($Config{make} eq 'nmake') {require 'for_nmake.MY'}That seems to work ok, and will do quite nicely - unless there's a way of doing it that doesn't require an external file.
Cheers, Rob
