The extension will include functions which can be used to retrieve the value of any #define statement which was in the C header. The I will be used for the name of the extension. If module_name is not supplied then the name of the header file will be used, with the first character capitalized. If the extension might need extra libraries, they should be included here. The extension Makefile.PL will take care of checking whether the libraries actually exist and how they should be loaded. The extra libraries should be specified in the form -lm -lposix, etc, just as on the cc command line. By default, the Makefile.PL will search through the library path determined by Configure. That path can be augmented by including arguments of the form B<-L/another/library/path> in the extra-libraries argument. =head1 OPTIONS =over 5 =item B<-A> Omit all autoload facilities. This is the same as B<-c> but also removes the S> statement from the .pm file. =item B<-F> Additional flags to specify to C preprocessor when scanning header for function declarations. Should not be used without B<-x>. =item B<-O> Allows a pre-existing extension directory to be overwritten. =item B<-P> Omit the autogenerated stub POD section. =item B<-X> Omit the XS portion. Used to generate templates for a module which is not XS-based. =item B<-c> Omit C from the .xs file and corresponding specialised C from the .pm file. =item B<-d> Turn on debugging messages. =item B<-f> Allows an extension to be created for a header even if that header is not found in /usr/include. =item B<-h> Print the usage, help and version for this h2xs and exit. =item B<-n> I Specifies a name to be used for the extension, e.g., S<-n RPC::DCE> =item B<-p> I Specify a prefix which should be removed from the Perl function names, e.g., S<-p sec_rgy_> This sets up the XS B keyword and removes the prefix from functions that are autoloaded via the C mechansim. =item B<-s> I Create a perl subroutine for the specified macros rather than autoload with the constant() subroutine. These macros are assumed to have a return type of B, e.g., S<-s sec_rgy_wildcard_name,sec_rgy_wildcard_sid>. =item B<-v> I Specify a version number for this extension. This version number is added to the templates. The default is 0.01. =item B<-x> Automatically generate XSUBs basing on function declarations in the header file. The package C should be installed. If this option is specified, the name of the header file may look like C. In this case NAME1 is used instead of the specified string, but XSUBs are emitted only for the declarations included from file NAME2. Note that some types of arguments/return-values for functions may result in XSUB-declarations/typemap-entries which need hand-editing. Such may be objects which cannot be converted from/to a pointer (like C), pointers to functions, or arrays. =back =head1 EXAMPLES # Default behavior, extension is Rusers h2xs rpcsvc/rusers # Same, but extension is RUSERS h2xs -n RUSERS rpcsvc/rusers # Extension is rpcsvc::rusers.
