NAME Alien::libtool24 - (Deprecated) Built or find libtool 2.4.x VERSION version 0.06 SYNOPSIS From your Alien::Base based Build.PL: Alien::Base::ModuleBuild->new( ... alien_bin_requires => { 'Alien::libtool24' => 0, }, alien_build_commands => [ ... 'libtool ...', ... ], ... ); From regular Perl: use Alien::libtool24; use env qw( @PATH ); # puts libtook in the PATH if it isn't already there unshift @PATH, Alien::libtool24->bin_dir; system 'libtool ...'; DESCRIPTION This module is deprecated. Use Alien::libtool instead, it uses newer better Alien tech. This module will download and install libtool 2.4.x if it is not already available on your system. As with other Alien::Base based distributions it will install into a distribution based share directory which will not override or otherwise malign your system software. METHODS bin_dir my $dir = Alien::libtool24->bin_dir; Returns the directory which contains the libtool and libtoolize scripts. Adding this to the PATH usually means that you can run these commands without fully qualifying them. Returns empty list if libtool is already in the PATH. dist_dir my $dir = Alien::libtool24->dist_dir; Returns the base install directory of libtool if it was installed by building it from source, rather than using your system's version of libtool. CAVEATS This works(ish) on Windows, in that it installs, but libtool installs itself as a shell script which can be used with Alien::MSYS, but is not very useful by itself. Alien::Hunspell uses this module successfully, but somewhat hackishly on Windows.
