* Replace common Emacs file-local variables with dir-localsDagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker2015-03-221-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An empty cpan/.dir-locals.el stops Emacs using the core defaults for code imported from CPAN. Committer's work: To keep t/porting/cmp_version.t and t/porting/utils.t happy, $VERSION needed to be incremented in many files, including throughout dist/PathTools. perldelta entry for module updates. Add two Emacs control files to MANIFEST; re-sort MANIFEST. For: RT #124119.
* speed up building with less disk IO pod moves+__END__+miscDaniel Dragan2014-10-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | In Cwd.pm, dont search for pwd on Win32. Also trim down the list of makefile suffixes on Win32 so it doesn't try searching for av.pas and perl.f90 and hash.cbl on disk. Add __END__ tokens to stop the last read() call on the handle which returns 0 bytes at EOF.

| | | | The Perl Toolchain Gang has agreed to maintain this.

* speed up miniperl require on Win32Daniel Dragan2014-04-081-1/+5
| | | | | | These 3 optimizations reduce the number of, usually failing, I/O calls for each "require" for miniperl only. None are appropriate except for Win32. See #121119 for details.
* write_buildcustomize.pl: Setup $^O to be the target os when building Core.Jess Robinson2014-01-221-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | This allows the correct hints files to be loaded when building modules We do this by giving write_buildcustomize.pl a 'osname' parameter. This means that write_buildcustomize.pl no longer depends on Config to get osname, which eliminates a circular dependency in the Makefiles.
* Do not clobber @INC completely in buildcustomize.plFather Chrysostomos2013-12-061-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | buildcustomize.pl (for miniperl) replaces @INC (usually qw(lib .)) with the whole list of build directories we need followed by qw(lib .). runperl from test.pl is such that this: runperl(switches => [ "-Irun/flib" ], ...) turns into: /path/to/perl.git/miniperl "-I../lib" -Irun/flib The end result is that -Irun/flib gets stripped out and clobbered, and switchM.t fails under minitest.
* Add DO NOT EDIT notice to buildcustomize.plFather Chrysostomos2013-12-061-0/+4

* Add dist/constant/lib to the paths in the generated lib/buildcustomize.plNicholas Clark2013-08-171-0/+1
| | | | | Strictly, add it to write_buildcustomize.pl, and so that the absolute path is added to the generated file.
* Add cpan/Text-Tabs/lib to buildcustomize.pl and hence miniperl's @INC.Nicholas Clark2013-07-071-0/+1
| | | | | autodoc.pl already needs Text::Wrap, and soon other early-stage build scripts will too.
* Move File::Find from lib/ to ext/Nicholas Clark2013-07-051-0/+1

* Move Exporter from lib/ to dist/Exporter/Nicholas Clark2013-07-031-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Exporter has been considered dual life, upstream blead, since commit 6295adb525682844 (Sep 2006), but it was not moved to dist/ in 2009 with the other dual-life modules because it was not possible to disentangle it from the early stages of the build bootstrapping. The build bootstrapping is now sufficiently simplified that it's possible to move it to dist/
* Move VMS::Filespec from vms/ext to ext/Nicholas Clark2013-07-021-3/+4
| | | | | | | This simplifies the VMS Makefile. It would have simplified the VMS Makefile further if it had had the correct rules to delete [.lib.VMS]Filespec.pm which are now no longer needed. (The generated ext/VMS-Filespec/DESCRIP.MMS will now take care of this.)
* write_buildcustomize.pl now test loads the generated lib/buildcustomize.plNicholas Clark2013-06-131-2/+6
| | | | | | | And deletes it if it encounters an error whilst loading it. A non-functional lib/buildcustomize.pl will cause the build to fail with seemingly unrelated errors. Deleting it and exiting with an error should make the cause of build failures obvious.
* write_buildcustomize.pl no longer writes to STDOUTNicholas Clark2013-06-131-1/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | write_buildcustomize.pl now opens lib/buildcustomize.pl itself, instead of writing to STDOUT and relying on the Makefile to set up redirection. This means that an empty lib/buildcustomize.pl is not created if write_buildcustomize.pl fails to compile (for whatever reason), and permits write_buildcustomize.pl to delete (or attempt to delete) the output file if it detects an error. Hard code the output file name (lib/buildcustomize.pl), as it's the same on all platforms, and @ARGV is already used to optionally pass a directory for write_buildcustomize.pl to change to before running. Experimentation suggests that various make utilities don't delete a file created by redirection even if an error occurs. Hence this should be more robust. Add -f to the miniperl commandline when running write_buildcustomize.pl to avoid reading in any existing lib/buildcustomize.pl. write_buildcustomize.pl doesn't need the setup provided by lib/buildcustomize.pl, and running it might cause errors which prevents writing out a correct version, making an incomplete build harder to recover from.
* typo fixes for root level scriptsDavid Steinbrunner2013-05-221-1/+1
| | | | | Add David Steinbrunner to AUTHORS. Update pod issues database.
* Add Term::ReadLine to write_buildcustomize.pl.Craig A. Berry2011-12-021-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the build fails while building extensions, it's nice to have the debugger available to help figure out what went wrong. You couldn't do that before because lib/perl5db.pl depends on Term::ReadLine, which wouldn't be available since it hadn't been built yet. This commit makes Term::ReadLine available via the same mechanism that makes other libraries available to miniperl during the build. An alternative would be to remove the debugger's dependency on Term::ReadLine, but that would be more work and more risk for a situation that hopefully doesn't come up that often.
* dual-life CarpZefram2011-09-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Make Carp portable to older Perl versions: * check minimum Perl version (5.6) at load time * use || instead of // * attempt downgrading to avoid loading Unicode tables when that might fail * check whether utf8::is_utf8() exists before calling it * lower IPC::Open3 version requirement in Carp tests
* move Carp to ext/Carp, preparing for dual-lifingZefram2011-09-041-0/+1

* Add ext/re/re.pm to the @INC set for miniperl by lib/buildcustomize.plNicholas Clark2011-02-151-0/+1
| | | | | | | This avoids a build-time race condition where lib/re.pm might be read midway through the *second* copy of it (when ext/re/Makefile is being run). It also simplifies many [Mm]akefile* rules, which previously had a special case to copy it early.
* Use a buildcustomize.pl to set @INC in miniperl when building extensions.Nicholas Clark2011-02-151-0/+50
With the build tools now shipped in various subdirectories of cpan/ and dist/ we need to add several paths to @INC when invoking MakeMaker (etc) to build extensions. The previous approach of using $ENV{PERL5LIB} was fragile, because: a: It was hitting the length limit for %ENV variables on VMS b: It was running the risk of race conditions in a parallel build - ExtUtils::Makemaker "knows" to add -I../..lib, which puts lib at the *front* of @INC, but if one parallel process happens to copy a module into lib/ whilst another is searching for it, the second may get a partial read c: Overwriting $ENV{PERL5LIB} breaks any system where any of the installed build tools are actually implemented in Perl, if they are relying on $ENV{PERL5LIB} for setup This approach a: Doesn't have %ENV length limits b: Ensures that lib/ is last, so copy targets are always shadowing copy sources c: Only affects miniperl, and doesn't touch $ENV{PERL5LIB} Approaches that turned out to have fatal flaws: 1: Using $ENV{PERL5OPT} with a module fails because ExtUtils::MakeMaker searches for the build perl without setting lib, and treats the error caused by a failed -M as "not a valid perl 5 binary" 2: Refactoring ExtUtils::MakeMaker to *not* use -I for lib, and instead rely on $ENV{PERL5LIB} [which includes "../../lib"] fails because: some extensions have subdirectories, and on these EU::MM correctly uses -I../../../lib, where as $ENV{PERL5LIB} only has space for relative paths, and only with two levels. This approach actually takes advantage of ExtUtils::MakeMaker setting an -I option correct for the depth of directory being built.
