There's probably a way to do it. Basically, I depend on Parse::Yapp, and I would like to call `yapp` on Build.PL so I can have the generated .pm file before M::B generates all its data dir. In fact, I can add that to inc/MyBuilder.pm, but I am afraid the generated .pm will not be installed. But probably I am just too used to MakeMaker and M::B will work just fine :) Cheers ambsThread Previous | Thread Next
