ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes(3pm)       Perl Programmers Reference Guide       ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes(3pm)



NAME
       ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes - Version-agnostic bytes.pm

SYNOPSIS
         use just like bytes.pm

DESCRIPTION
       bytes.pm was introduced with 5.6.  This means any code which has 'use bytes' in it won't even compile
       on 5.5.X.  Since bytes is a lexical pragma and must be used at compile time we can't simply wrap it
       in a BEGIN { eval 'use bytes' } block.

       ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes is just a very thin wrapper around bytes which works just like it when
       bytes.pm exists and everywhere else it does nothing.
