DESCRIPTION ^

Parrot::Configure::Options::Conf exports on demand certain variables and subroutines used in other packages which implement different modes of configuration options processing. Currently, these packages are:

EXPORTED VARIABLES ^

Three variables are exported on demand.

Defaults to string 'Configure.pl', but may be overridden for testing purposes.

$parrot_version ^

String which is return value of Parrot::BuildUtil::parrot_version(); may be overridden for testing purposes.

$svnid ^

String holding a standard Subversion 'Id' tag; may be overridden for testing purposes.

EXPORTED SUBROUTINES ^

Two subroutines are exported on demand.

print_help() ^

Help message printed when perl Configure.pl --help is called. Takes no arguments; prints to STDOUT; implicitly returns true value upon success.

print_version() ^

Version number printed when perl Configure.pl --version is called. Takes no arguments; prints to STDOUT; implicitly returns true value upon success.

NOTES ^

The functionality in this package originally appeared in Configure.pl. It was transferred here and refactored by James E Keenan.
