USE-DEVEL-ASSERTOS(1)

NAME
use-devel-assertos - a script to package Devel::AssertOS modules with your code.

DESCRIPTION
This script, when run in the directory in which your shiny new module lives, will bundle whichever Devel::AssertOS modules you ask it to in the "inc" directory, and update your Makefile.PL (or Build.PL) appropriately. If neither exists, it will create a Makefile.PL. The MANIFEST file is updated if any files are created.

SYNOPSIS
    use-devel-assertos NetBSD OpenBSD FreeBSD

But note that if you use "Module::Install" you are encouraged to use "Module::Install::AssertOS" instead.

USAGE
In the example above, this will insert code to make your module depend on one of the specified OSes, as well as update Makefile.PL / Build.PL / MANIFEST. By default it's rather noisy, but you can suppress that by passing -q as the first parameter.

SUPPORTED PLATFORMS
To get a list of supported platforms, do this:

    use-devel-assertos -l

WARNINGS, BUGS and FEEDBACK
This script has not been thoroughly tested. You should check by hand that it has done what you expected after running it.

If you use Module::Build::Compat to write a Makefile.PL, then you will need to re-run this script whenever you have generated a new Makefile.PL.

I welcome feedback about my code, including constructive criticism. Bug reports should be made using <https://github.com/DrHyde/perl-modules-Devel-CheckOS/issues>.
