NAME
       ExtUtils::Config - A wrapper for perl's configuration


VERSION
       version 0.009


SYNOPSIS
        my $config = ExtUtils::Config->new();
        $config->get('installsitelib');


DESCRIPTION
       ExtUtils::Config is an abstraction around the %Config hash. By itself it is not a particularly
       interesting module by any measure, however it ties together a family of modern toolchain modules.


METHODS
   new(\%config)
       Create a new ExtUtils::Config object. The values in "\%config" are used to initialize the object.

   get($key)
       Get the value of $key. If not overridden it will return the value in %Config.

   exists($key)
       Tests for the existence of $key.

   but(\%keys)
       This creates a new "ExtUtils::Config" object based on the current one, but with the values in %keys
       replacing the current values. Any undefined value means it will be removed from the overriden set.

   values_set()
       Get a hashref of all overridden values.

   all_config()
       Get a hashref of the complete configuration, including overrides.

   serialize()
       This method serializes the object to some kind of string. This can be useful for various caching
       purposes.
