[3181] | 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.
