Hi, I'm new here. I'm just getting acclimated to M::B, having used
EU::MM for many years.
I ran into a chicken-and-egg problem with version.pm and EU::MM, that
is, EU::MM allows you to require version.pm, but writes undef for the
version number in the Makefile, making XS builds fail for machines
that didn't previously have version.pm installed. E::B solves this by
(as I understand it), including the infamous ::vpp...
Anywho, I feel like I have two left feet with E::B so far. One thing
that irks me is that top-level .xs files are moved into the lib/
hierarchy before being built. This frustrates my include process, but
I've gotten around it by modifying my .xs to have a smattering of
../../ in them.
But that leads me to my actual question, sorry it took so long to get
there: How do you add dependencies?
My Blarg.xs file depends on include1.xs, include2.xs and include3.xs.
If I edit include1.xs an ./Build the Build script fails to notice that
Blarg.so is not up to date. In EU::MM it's a simple depends => {
Blarg.xs => " include1.xs include2.xs include3.xs " }, but I'm having
no luck finding it in E::B so far. I did a little source diving, but
E::B is still esoteric to me (for now).
