Description

The SPVM::Builder::LibInfo class has methods to manipulate library information for a linker.

Usage

  my $lib_info = SPVM::Builder::LibInfo->new(%fields);
  my $lib_ldflags = $lib_info->create_ldflags;

Fields

  my $config = $lib_info->config;
  $lib_info->config($config);

Gets and sets the config field, a SPVM::Builder::Config object.

file

  my $file = $lib_info->file;
  $lib_info->file($file);

Gets and sets the file field, the absolute path of the library file such as /path/libz.so, /path/libpng.a.

is_static

  my $is_static = $lib_info->is_static;
  $lib_info->is_static($is_static);

Gets and sets the is_static field. If this field is a true value, this library is linked statically, otherwise is linked dynamically.
