NAME

       Alien::Build::Plugin::Probe - Probe Alien::Build plugins


VERSION

       version 2.80


SYNOPSIS

       look for libraries in known location:

        use alienfile;
        plugin 'Probe::CBuilder' => (
          cflags => '-I/opt/libfoo/include',
          libs   => '-L/opt/libfoo/lib -lfoo',
        );

       look for tools in the path:

        use alienfile;
        plugin 'Probe::CommandLine' => (
          command => 'gzip',
          args    => [ '--version' ],
          match   => qr/gzip/,
          version => qr/gzip ([0-9\.]+)/,
        );

       Use "vcpkg" for Visual C++ Perl:

        use alienfile;
        plugin 'Probe::Vcpkg' => 'libffi';


DESCRIPTION

       Probe plugins try to find existing libraries and tools already
       installed on the system.  If found they can be used instead of
       downloading the source from the internet and building.

       Alien::Build::Plugin::Probe::CBuilder
           Use ExtUtils::CBuilder to probe for existing installed library.

       Alien::Build::Plugin::Probe::CommandLine
           Execute commands to probe for existing tools.

       Alien::Build::Plugin::Probe::Vcpkg
           Use Win32::Vcpkg to probe for existing installed library.
