NAME

pure-perl-make - a perl 'make' replacement

SYNOPSIS

  pure-perl-make [-D] [-n] [-p] [-g] [-f Makefile] [-C directory] targets

DESCRIPTION

Performs the same function as make(1) but is written entirely in perl. A subset of GNU make extensions is supported. For details see Make for the underlying perl module.

FLAGS

-D

Don't build, just "DumperX" in Data::Dumper the Make object.

-n

Don't build, just print what building would have done.

-p

Don't build, just print the expanded makefile.

-g

Turn on "GNU" in Make.

BUGS

  • No -k flag

    I strongly suspect there are lots more.

SEE ALSO

Make, make(1)
