Migrate extconf.rb documentation from README.EXT to MakeMakefile

Added by zzak (zzak _) almost 12 years ago. Updated almost 12 years ago.

Status:
Closed
Target version:
[ruby-core:45347]

Description

I've added a patch to move any missing bits from README.EXT Appendix C to MakeMakefile, in exchange for "See MakeMakefile for functions that are available to extconf.rb".

I don't think the call-seq changes to lib/mkmf.rb are necessary. In some cases they don't match up with the method definitions. Can you remove them?

I think Appendix C. can be removed entirely and and after the extconf.rb method list in "(4) prepare extconf.rb" something like "See MakeMakefile for full documentation of these functions." can be added.

Hi Eric,

I've updated a new patch with your requested changes, also fixed up the method definitions in "(4) prepare extconf.rb" where applicable.

I think this is good.

Nobu, do you have any comments?
