perl v5.40.0                                       2025-01-11                          ExtUtils::LibBuilder(3pm)

       Supports all the method from ExtUtils::CBuilder. The following three methods were adapted to be used in
       standalone C libraries.

   new
       This method creates a new ExtUtils::LibBuilder object. While it supports all "ExtUtils::CBuilder" methods
       some might work slightly differently (namely the two below).

       You can supply to the constructor any option recognized by "ExtUtils::CBuilder" constructor. None of them
       will be used by "LibBuilder".

   link
          $libbuilder -> link( objects     => [ "foo.o", "bar.o" ],
                               module_name => "foobar",
                               lib_file    => "libfoobar$libbuilder->{libext}");

       Options to the link method are the same as the "CBuilder" counterpart. Note that the result is a
       standalone C Library and not a bundle to be loaded by Perl.

       Also, note that you can use the "libext" key to retrieve from the object the common library extension on
       the running system (including the dot).

   link_executable
         $libbuilder->link_executable( objects => ["main.o"],
                                       extra_linker_flags => "-L. -lfoobar",
                                       exe_file => "foobarcmd$libbuilder->{exeext}");

       The "link_executable" needs, as "extra_linker_flags" options, the name of the library and the search
       path. Future versions might include better handling on the library files.

       Also, note that you can use the "exeext" key to retrieve from the object the common executable extension
       on the running system (including the dot).
