Module::Install::Deprecated3pm
Warnings and help for deprecated commands
Overview
One of the nicest features of Module::Install is that as it improves, there is no need to take into account user compatibility, because users do not need to install Module::Install itself.
As a result, the Module::Install API changes at a faster rate than usual, and this results in deprecated commands.
"Module::Install::Deprecated" provides implementations of the deprecated commands, so that when an author is upgrading their Module::Install and they are using a deprecated command they will be told that the command has been deprecated, and what the author should use instead.
This extension should NEVER end up bundled into the distribution tarball.
Commands
c_files
The "c_files" command has been changed to "cc_files" to reduce confusion and keep all compiler commands within a consistent "ff_foo" naming scheme.
inc_paths
The "inc_paths" command has been changed to "cc_inc_paths" due to confusion between Perl and C.
lib_paths
The "lib_paths" command has been changed to "cc_lib_paths" due to confusion between Perl and C.
lib_links
The "lib_links" command has been changed to "cc_lib_links" due to confusion between Perl and C.
optimize_flags
The "optimize_flags" command has been changed to "cc_optimize_flags" for consistency reasons.
