ExtUtils::Mkbootstrap - make a bootstrap file for use by
DynaLoader
"Mkbootstrap"
Mkbootstrap typically gets called from an extension
Makefile.
There is no "*.bs" file supplied with the extension.
Instead, there may be a *_BS file which has code for the
special cases, like posix for berkeley db on the NeXT.
This file will get parsed, and produce a maybe empty
@DynaLoader::dl_resolve_using array for the current archi-
tecture. That will be extended by $BSLOADLIBS, which was
computed by ExtUtils::Liblist::ext(). If this array still is
empty, we do nothing, else we write a .bs file with an
@DynaLoader::dl_resolve_using array.
The *_BS file can put some code into the generated "*.bs"
file by placing it in $bscode. This is a handy 'escape'
mechanism that may prove useful in complex situations.
If @DynaLoader::dl_resolve_using contains "-L*" or "-l*"
entries then Mkbootstrap will automatically add a
dl_findfile() call to the generated "*.bs" file.
