(I dare to post to 2 MLs, I hope I'm not doing wrong...)
I'm playing with static build of extensions on Win32, and some strangeness
comes when extension has some sub-extensions with their own Makefile.PL is
subdirectory.
Say, an extension in './ext' subdir contains subdirs, and
.....miniperl -I...... Makefile.PL LINKTYPE=static
is called.
In this case a subroutine "eval_in_subdirs" is called, which results in ...
do './Makefile.PL';
... in each of subdirectory.
All is fine to the moment, and even @ARGV is seen by the called Makefile.PL,
because generated Makefile in subdirectory contains lines:
....
# MakeMaker ARGV: (q[INSTALLDIRS=perl], q[PERL_CORE=1], q[LINKTYPE=static])
#
....
Argument LINKTYPE=static is what I am trying to achieve.
I am not successful, however, because some lines below in the same Makefile I
see:
LINKTYPE = dynamic
Is this a bug?
Thanks in advance for any clarification.
Vadim.
