ccdlflags

Prints $Config{ccdlflags}.

ccflags

Prints $Config{ccflags}.

ccopts

Combines perl_inc, ccflags, and ccdlflags.

ldopts

Outputs arguments for linking the Perl library and extensions to your application. When invoked as:

perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ldopts -

the following options are recognized:

-std

Outputs arguments for linking the Perl library and any extensions linked with the current Perl.

-I <path1:path2>

Search path for ModuleName.a archives. Default is @INC.

-- <list of linker args>

Additional linker arguments to be considered.

Any additional arguments found before the -- token are taken as the names of modules to generate code for. Can also be called with parameters:

'ldopts($std,[@modules],[@link_args],$path)'

When called this way, returns the argument string rather than printing it to STDOUT. The optional parameters are:

$std

Boolean, equivalent to the -std option.

[@modules]

Array reference. Equivalent to adding module names before the -- token.

[@link_args]

Array reference. Equivalent to adding linker arguments after the -- token.

$path

Equivalent to the -I option.

perl_inc

For including Perl header files. For example, if you say:

perl -MExtUtils::Embed -eperl_inc

the module prints the following:

-I$Config{archlibexp}/CORE

xsi_body (modules)

Returns string of calls to newXS that glue the module bootstrap function to boot_ModuleName for each module in modules.

xsi_header

Returns a string defining the same EXTERN_C macro as perlmain.c; also #include s perl.h and EXTERN.h.

xsinit

Generates C/C++ code for the XS initializer function. When invoked as:

perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e xsinit -

the following options are recognized:

-o [filename]

Prints to the filename specified. Defaults to perlxsi.c. If filename is STDOUT, prints to standard output.

-std

Writes code for extensions that are linked with the current Perl.

Any additional arguments are expected to be names of modules to generate code for. Can also be called with parameters:

'xsinit($filename,$std,[@modules])'

When called this way, the following optional parameters are accepted:

$filename

Equivalent to the -o option.

$std

Boolean. Equivalent to the -std option.

[@modules]

An array reference. Equivalent to adding module names after the -- token.

xsi_protos (modules)

Returns string of boot_$ModuleName prototypes for each module in modules.
