Nope. You have to create stubs. The AutoLoader module should do this
automatically for you assuming you've gone through the full build process
and AutoSplit has had a chance to do it's job.
$ Makefile.PL
Writing Makefile for AutoExample
$ make
cp lib/AutoExample.pm blib/lib/AutoExample.pm
AutoSplitting blib/lib/AutoExample.pm (blib/lib/auto/AutoExample)
$ cat blib/lib/auto/AutoExample/autosplit.ix
# Index created by AutoSplit for blib/lib/AutoExample.pm
# (file acts as timestamp)
package AutoExample;
sub foo ;
1;
$ perl -Mblib -wle 'use AutoExample; print "Yes" if AutoExample->can("foo")'
Using /home/schwern/tmp/AutoExample/blib
Yes
$ perl -Ilib -wle 'use AutoExample; print "Yes" if AutoExample->can("foo")'
