       Module::Build::XSUtil - A Module::Build class for building XS modules

SYNOPSIS

       Use in your Build.PL

           use strict;
           use warnings;
           use Module::Build::XSUtil;

           my $builder = Module::Build::XSUtil->new(
               dist_name            => 'Your-XS-Module',
               license              => 'perl',
               dist_author          => 'Your Name <yourname@example.com>',
               dist_version_from    => 'lib/Your/XS/Module',
               generate_ppport_h    => 'lib/Your/XS/ppport.h',
               generate_xshelper_h  => 'lib/Your/XS/xshelper.h',
               needs_compiler_c99   => 1,
           );

           $builder->create_build_script();

       Use in custom builder module.

           package builder::MyBuilder;
           use strict;
           use warnings;
           use base 'Module::Build::XSUtil';

           sub new {
               my ($class, %args) = @_;
               my $self = $class->SUPER::new(
                   %args,
                   generate_ppport_h    => 'lib/Your/XS/ppport.h',
                   generate_xshelper_h  => 'lib/Your/XS/xshelper.h',
                   needs_compiler_c99   => 1,
               );
               return $self;
           }

DESCRIPTION

       Module::Build::XSUtil is subclass of Module::Build for support building XS modules.

       This is a list of a new parameters in the Module::Build::new method:

       needs_compiler_c99
           This option checks C99 compiler's availability. If it's not available, Build.PL exits
           by 0.

       needs_compiler_cpp
           This option checks C++ compiler's availability. If it's not available, Build.PL exits
           by 0.

           In addition, append 'extra_compiler_flags' and 'extra_linker_flags' for C++.

       generate_ppport_h
           Generate ppport.h by Devel::PPPort.

       generate_xshelper_h
           Generate xshelper.h which is a helper header file to include EXTERN.h, perl.h, XSUB.h
           and ppport.h, and defines some portability stuff which are not supported by ppport.h.

           It is porting from Module::Install::XSUtil.

       cc_warnings
           Enable compiler warnings flag. It is enable by default.

       -g options
           If invoke Build.PL with '-g' option, It will build with debug options.
