Shell variables from the F file (written by Configure) are stored in the readonly-variable C<%Config>, indexed by their names. Values stored in config.sh as 'undef' are returned as undefined values. The perl C function can be used to check if a named variable exists. =over 4 =item myconfig() Returns a textual summary of the major perl configuration values. See also C<-V> in L. =item config_sh() Returns the entire perl configuration information in the form of the original config.sh shell variable assignment script. =item config_vars(@names) Prints to STDOUT the values of the named configuration variable. Each is printed on a separate line in the form: name='value'; Names which are unknown are output as C. See also C<-V:name> in L. =back =head1 EXAMPLE Here's a more sophisticated example of using %Config: use Config; use strict; my %sig_num; my @sig_name; unless($Config{sig_name} && $Config{sig_num}) { die "No sigs?"; } else { my @names = split ' ', $Config{sig_name}; @sig_num{@names} = split ' ', $Config{sig_num}; foreach (@names) { $sig_name[$sig_num{$_}] ||= $_; } } print "signal #17 = $sig_name[17]\n"; if ($sig_num{ALRM}) { print "SIGALRM is $sig_num{ALRM}\n"; } =head1 WARNING Because this information is not stored within the perl executable itself it is possible (but unlikely) that the information does not relate to the actual perl binary which is being used to access it. The Config module is installed into the architecture and version specific library directory ($Config{installarchlib}) and it checks the perl version number when loaded. The values stored in config.sh may be either single-quoted or double-quoted. Double-quoted strings are handy for those cases where you need to include escape sequences in the strings. To avoid runtime variable interpolation, any C<$> and C<@> characters are replaced by C<\$> and C<\@>, respectively. This isn't foolproof, of course, so don't embed C<\$> or C<\@> in double-quoted strings unless you're willing to deal with the consequences. (The slashes will end up escaped and the C<$> or C<@> will trigger variable interpolation) =head1 GLOSSARY Most C variables are determined by the C script on platforms supported by it (which is most UNIX platforms). Some platforms have custom-made C variables, and may thus not have some of the variables described below, or may have extraneous variables specific to that particular port. See the port specific documentation in such cases. =head2 _ =over =item C<_a> From F: This variable defines the extension used for ordinary libraries. For unix, it is F<.a>. The F<.> is included. Other possible values include F<.lib>. =item C<_exe> From F: This variable defines the extension used for executable files. For unix it is empty. Other possible values include F<.exe>. =item C<_o> From F: This variable defines the extension used for object files. For unix, it is F<.o>. The F<.> is included. Other possible values include F<.obj>. =back =head2 a =over =item C From F: This variable is set to C if C (Andrew File System) is used on the system, C otherwise. It is possible to override this with a hint value or command line option, but you'd better know what you are doing. =item C From F: This variable holds the number of bytes required to align a double-- or a long double when applicable. Usual values are 2, 4 and 8. The default is eight, for safety. =item C From F: This variable is set if the user needs to run ansi2knr. Currently, this is not supported, so we just abort. =item C From F: This variable contains the command which can be used to compute the host name. The command is fully qualified by its absolute path, to make it safe when used by a process with super-user privileges. =item C From F: The three variables, api_revision, api_version, and api_subversion, specify the version of the oldest perl binary compatible with the present perl. In a full version string such as F<5.6.1>, api_revision is the C<5>. Prior to 5.5.640, the format was a floating point number, like 5.00563. F:incpush() and F will automatically search in $F. for older directories back to the limit specified by these api_ variables. This is only useful if you have a perl library directory tree structured like the default one. See C for how this works. The versioned site_perl directory was introduced in 5.005, so that is the lowest possible value. The version list appropriate for the current system is determined in F. C To do: Since compatibility can depend on compile time options (such as bincompat, longlong, F) it should (perhaps) be set by Configure, but currently it isn't. Currently, we read a hard-wired value from F. Perhaps what we ought to do is take the hard-wired value from F but then modify it if the current Configure options warrant. F then would use an #ifdef guard. =item C From F: The three variables, api_revision, api_version, and api_subversion, specify the version of the oldest perl binary compatible with the present perl. In a full version string such as F<5.6.1>, api_subversion is the C<1>. See api_revision for full details. =item C From F: The three variables, api_revision, api_version, and api_subversion, specify the version of the oldest perl binary compatible with the present perl. In a full version string such as F<5.6.1>, api_version is the C<6>. See api_revision for full details. As a special case, 5.5.0 is rendered in the old-style as 5.005. (In the 5.005_0x maintenance series, this was the only versioned directory in $F) =item C From F: This variable combines api_revision, api_version, and api_subversion in a format such as 5.6.1 (or 5_6_1) suitable for use as a directory name. This is filesystem dependent. =item C From F: This variable is used internally by Configure to determine the full pathname (if any) of the ar program. After Configure runs, the value is reset to a plain C and is not useful. =item C From F: This variable holds the name of the directory in which the user wants to put architecture-dependent public library files for $package. It is most often a local directory such as F. Programs using this variable must be prepared to deal with filename expansion. =item C From F: This variable is the same as the archlib variable, but is filename expanded at configuration time, for convenient use. =item C From F: This variable is used for the 64-bitness part of $archname. =item C From F: This variable is a short name to characterize the current architecture. It is used mainly to construct the default archlib. =item C From F: This variable defines any additional objects that must be linked in with the program on this architecture. On unix, it is usually empty. It is typically used to include emulations of unix calls or other facilities. For perl on F, for example, this would include F. =item C From F: This variable is used internally by Configure to determine the full pathname (if any) of the awk program. After Configure runs, the value is reset to a plain C and is not useful. =back =head2 b =over =item C From F: The base revision level of this package, from the F<.package> file. =item C From F: This variable is defined but not used by Configure. The value is a plain '' and is not useful. =item C From F: This variable holds the name of the directory in which the user wants to put publicly executable images for the package in question. It is most often a local directory such as F. Programs using this variable must be prepared to deal with F<~name> substitution. =item C From F: This variable contains y if this version of Perl should be binary-compatible with Perl 5.005. =item C From F: This is the same as the bin variable, but is filename expanded at configuration time, for use in your makefiles. =item C From F: This variable is defined but not used by Configure. The value is a plain '' and is not useful. =item C From F: This variable is used internally by Configure to determine the full pathname (if any) of the byacc program. After Configure runs, the value is reset to a plain C and is not useful. =item C From F: This variable holds the byte order. In the following, larger digits indicate more significance. The variable byteorder is either 4321 on a big-endian machine, or 1234 on a little-endian, or 87654321 on a Cray ... or 3412 with weird order ! =back =head2 c =over =item C From F: This variable contains the \c string if that is what causes the echo command to suppress newline. Otherwise it is null. Correct usage is $echo $n "prompt for a question: $c". =item C From F: This variable contains a flag that precise difficulties the compiler has casting odd floating values to unsigned long: 0 = ok 1 = couldn't cast < 0 2 = couldn't cast >= 0x80000000 4 = couldn't cast in argument expression list =item C From F: This variable is used internally by Configure to determine the full pathname (if any) of the cat program. After Configure runs, the value is reset to a plain C and is not useful. =item C From F: This variable holds the name of a command to execute a C compiler which can resolve multiple global references that happen to have the same name. Usual values are C and C. Fervent C compilers may be called C. C has xlc. =item C From F: This variable contains any special flags that might need to be passed with C to compile modules to be used to create a shared library that will be used for dynamic loading. For hpux, this should be +z. It is up to the makefile to use it. =item C From F: This variable contains any special flags that might need to be passed to cc to link with a shared library for dynamic loading. It is up to the makefile to use it. For sunos 4.1, it should be empty. =item C From F: This variable contains any additional C compiler flags desired by the user. It is up to the Makefile to use this. =item C From F: This variable contains the compiler flags needed by large file builds and added to ccflags by hints files. =item C From F: This can set either by hints files or by Configure. If using gcc, this is gcc, and if not, usually equal to cc, unimpressive, no? Some platforms, however, make good use of this by storing the flavor of the C compiler being used here. For example if using the Sun WorkShop suite, ccname will be C. =item C From F: The variable contains the symbols defined by the C compiler alone. The symbols defined by cpp or by cc when it calls cpp are not in this list, see cppsymbols and cppccsymbols. The list is a space-separated list of symbol=value tokens. =item C From F: This can set either by hints files or by Configure. If using a (non-gcc) vendor cc, this variable may contain a version for the compiler. =item C From F: Login name of the person who ran the Configure script and answered the questions. This is used to tag both F and F. =item C From F: Electronic mail address of the person who ran Configure. This can be used by units that require the user's e-mail, like F. =item C From F: Holds the output of the C command when the configuration file was produced. This is used to tag both F and F. =item C From F: This variable contains the value of the C symbol, which indicates to the C program how many bytes there are in a character. =item C From F: This variable is defined but not used by Configure. The value is a plain '' and is not useful. =item C From F: This variable is defined but not used by Configure.
