B::Bytecode(3pm)       Perl Programmers Reference Guide	      B::Bytecode(3pm)

NAME
       B::Bytecode - Perl compiler's bytecode backend

SYNOPSIS
       perl -MO=Bytecode[,-H][,-oscript.plc] script.pl

DESCRIPTION
       Compiles a Perl script into a bytecode format that could be loaded
       later by the ByteLoader module and executed as a regular Perl script.

EXAMPLE
	   $ perl -MO=Bytecode,-H,-ohi -e 'print "hi!\n"'
	   $ perl hi
	   hi!

OPTIONS
       -b  Save all the BEGIN blocks. Normally only BEGIN blocks that
	   "require" other files (ex. "use Foo;") are saved.

       -H  prepend a "use ByteLoader VERSION;" line to the produced bytecode.

       -k  keep the syntax tree - it is stripped by default.

       -ooutfile
	   put the bytecode in <outfile> instead of dumping it to STDOUT.

       -s  scan the script for "# line .." directives and for <goto LABEL>
	   expressions. When gotos are found keep the syntax tree.

KNOWN BUGS
       ·   "BEGIN { goto A: while 1; A: }" won't even compile.

       ·   "?...?" and "reset" do not work as expected.

       ·   variables in "(?{ ... })" constructs are not properly scoped.

       ·   scripts that use source filters will fail miserably.

NOTICE
       There are also undocumented bugs and options.

       THIS CODE IS HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
