# Module::Build::Base(3perl)

Default methods for Module::Build

## NAME

Module::Build::Base - Default methods for Module::Build

## SYNOPSIS

```
  Please see the Module::Build documentation.
```

## DESCRIPTION

The `"Module::Build::Base"` module defines the core functionality of `"Module::Build"`.  Its methods may be overridden by any of the platform-dependent modules in the `"Module::Build::Platform::"` namespace, but the intention here is to make this base module as platform-neutral as possible.  Nicely enough, Perl has several core tools available in the `"File::"` namespace for doing this, so the task isn't very difficult.

Please see the `"Module::Build"` documentation for more details.
