Fields in Makefile.PL

2004-11-02 Thread Jose Alves de Castro 
Hi.

I'm trying to normalize some modules, regarding tests, Makefile.PL, etc.

I have a question: what fields do you find required or advisable in
 every Makefile.PL? I usually have NAME, VERSION_FROM, PREREQ_PM,
 AUTHOR... am I missing something important?

TIA,

jac

Run h2xs, they very needed fields will be into the Makefile.PL

You may also be interested in one of the new, friendlier alternatives to
h2xs which are no CPAN:

module-starter
modulemaker
