NAME

Data::Checks::Builder - build-time support for Data::Checks

SYNOPSIS

In Build.PL:

   use Data::Checks::Builder;

   my $build = Module::Build->new(
      ...,
      configure_requires => {
         ...
         'Data::Checks::Builder' => 0,
      }
   );

   Data::Checks::Builder->extend_module_build( $build );

   ...

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a build-time helper to assist authors writing XS modules that use Data::Checks. It prepares a Module::Build-using distribution to be able to make use of Data::Checks.

extra_compiler_flags

   @flags = Data::Checks::Builder->extra_compiler_flags;

Returns a list of extra flags that the build scripts should add to the compiler invocation. This enables the C compiler to find the DataChecks.h file.

extend_module_build

   Data::Checks::Builder->extend_module_build( $build );

A convenient shortcut for performing all the tasks necessary to make a Module::Build-based distribution use the helper.
