NAME¶
ExtUtils::MM_Win95 - method to customize MakeMaker for Win9X
SYNOPSIS¶
You should not be using this module directly.
DESCRIPTION¶
This is a subclass of ExtUtils::MM_Win32 containing changes necessary to get MakeMaker playing nice with command.com and other Win9Xisms.
Overridden methods¶
Most of these make up for limitations in the Win9x/nmake command shell.
- max_exec_len
- Win98 chokes on things like Encode if we set the max length to nmake's max of 2K. So we go for a more conservative value of 1K.
- os_flavor
- Win95 and Win98 and WinME are collectively Win9x and Win32
