Devel::PatchPerl(3)   User Contributed Perl Documentation  Devel::PatchPerl(3)

NAME
       Devel::PatchPerl - Patch perl source a la Devel::PPPort's buildperl.pl

VERSION
       version 0.76

SYNOPSIS
	 use strict;
	 use warnings;

	 use Devel::PatchPerl;

	 Devel::PatchPerl->patch_source( '5.6.1', '/path/to/untarred/perl/source/perl-5.6.1' );

DESCRIPTION
       Devel::PatchPerl is a modularisation of the patching code contained in
       Devel::PPPort's "buildperl.pl".

       It does not build perls, it merely provides an interface to the source
       patching functionality.

FUNCTION
       "patch_source"
	   Takes two parameters, a "perl" version and the path to unwrapped
	   perl source for that version.  It dies on any errors.

	   If you don't supply a "perl" version, it will attempt to auto-
	   determine the "perl" version from the specified path.

	   If you don't supply the path to unwrapped perl source, it will
	   assume the current working directory.

PLUGIN SYSTEM
       See Devel::PatchPerl::Plugin for details of Devel::PatchPerl's plugin
       system.

CAVEAT
       Devel::PatchPerl is intended only to facilitate the "building" of
       perls, not to facilitate the "testing" of perls. This means that it
       will not patch failing tests in the perl testsuite.
