# ExtUtils::CBuilder::Platform::Windows(3perl)

Builder class for Windows platforms

## NAME

ExtUtils::CBuilder::Platform::Windows - Builder class for Windows platforms

## DESCRIPTION

This module implements the Windows-specific parts of ExtUtils::CBuilder. Most of the Windows-specific stuff has to do with compiling and linking C code.  Currently we support the 3 compilers perl itself supports: MSVC, BCC, and GCC.

This module inherits from `"ExtUtils::CBuilder::Base"`, so any functionality not implemented here will be implemented there.  The interfaces are defined by the ExtUtils::CBuilder documentation.
