| 1 | microperl is supposed to be a really minimal perl, even more | 
|---|
| 2 | minimal than miniperl.  No Configure is needed to build microperl, | 
|---|
| 3 | on the other hand this means that interfaces between Perl and your | 
|---|
| 4 | operating system are left very -- minimal. | 
|---|
| 5 |  | 
|---|
| 6 | All this is experimental.  If you don't know what to do with microperl | 
|---|
| 7 | you probably shouldn't.  Do not report bugs in microperl; fix the bugs. | 
|---|
| 8 |  | 
|---|
| 9 | We assume ANSI C89 plus the following: | 
|---|
| 10 | - <stdlib.h> | 
|---|
| 11 | - rename() | 
|---|
| 12 | - opendir(), readdir(), closedir() (via dirent.h) | 
|---|
| 13 | - memchr (via string.h) | 
|---|
| 14 | - (a safe) putenv() (via stdlib.h) | 
|---|
| 15 | - strtoul() (via stdlib.h) | 
|---|
| 16 | (grep for 'define' in uconfig.sh.) | 
|---|
| 17 | Also, Perl times() is defined to always return zeroes. | 
|---|
| 18 |  | 
|---|
| 19 | If you are still reading this and you are itching to try out microperl: | 
|---|
| 20 |  | 
|---|
| 21 | make -f Makefile.micro | 
|---|
| 22 |  | 
|---|
| 23 | If you make changes to uconfig.sh, run | 
|---|
| 24 |  | 
|---|
| 25 | make -f Makefile.micro regen_uconfig | 
|---|
| 26 |  | 
|---|
| 27 | to regenerate uconfig.h. |
