just what was in the previous e-mail. I guess it has to bootstrap from
module-starter or:
perl -MModule::Build::Plugins -e \
'Module::Build::Plugins->mk_incbuilder'
Just
sub ACTION_incbuilder {$_[0]->mk_incbuilder}
sub mk_incbuilder {
my $self = shift;
open(my $fh, '>', 'inc/builder.pm') or die "eek";
print $fh <'BUILDER';
sub builder {
my $package = shift;
eval("require $package") or return('Module::Build');
# yeah, $package->VERSION >= $foo, etc would be a good idea
$package->import(@_) if($package->can('import'));
return($package);
}
BUILDER
}
I guess. Once it sorta works, it's pretty easy to regen. Even if the
generated code has a fatal bug and you have to perl -Mblahblah -e blah,
that's not too hard.
It seems a little wrong for that to be main::builder(), but that's about
all that needs to be solved up front. inc::builder::builder() ?
