ExtUtils::MM_MacOS(3pm)               Perl Programmers Reference Guide               ExtUtils::MM_MacOS(3pm)



NAME
       ExtUtils::MM_MacOS - once produced Makefiles for MacOS Classic

SYNOPSIS
         # MM_MacOS no longer contains any code.  This is just a stub.

DESCRIPTION
       Once upon a time, MakeMaker could produce an approximation of a correct Makefile on MacOS Classic
       (MacPerl).  Due to a lack of maintainers, this fell out of sync with the rest of MakeMaker and hadn't
       worked in years.  Since there's little chance of it being repaired, MacOS Classic is fading away, and
       the code was icky to begin with, the code has been deleted to make maintenance easier.

       Those interested in writing modules for MacPerl should use Module::Build which works better than
       MakeMaker ever did.

       Anyone interested in resurrecting this file should pull the old version from the MakeMaker CVS repos-itory repository
       itory and contact makemaker@perl.org, but we really encourage you to work on Module::Build instead.
