36!!!!!!! DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE !!!!!!!
37This file is built by metaconfig.

39This file contains a description of all the shell variables whose value is
40determined by the Configure script. Variables intended for use in C
41programs (e.g. I_UNISTD) are already described in config_h.SH. [`configpm'
42generates pod documentation for Config.pm from this file--please try to keep
43the formatting regular.]

141__END__
142PERL_REVISION (Oldsyms.U):
143 In a Perl version number such as 5.6.2, this is the 5.
144 This value is manually set in patchlevel.h
145
146PERL_VERSION (Oldsyms.U):
147 In a Perl version number such as 5.6.2, this is the 6.
148 This value is manually set in patchlevel.h
149
150PERL_SUBVERSION (Oldsyms.U):
151 In a Perl version number such as 5.6.2, this is the 2.
152 Values greater than 50 represent potentially unstable
153 development subversions.
154 This value is manually set in patchlevel.h
155
156PERL_APIVERSION (Oldsyms.U):
157 This value is manually set in patchlevel.h and is used
158 to set the Configure apiversion variable.
159
160CONFIGDOTSH (Oldsyms.U):
161 This is set to 'true' in config.sh so that a shell script
162 sourcing config.sh can tell if it has been sourced already.
163
164PERL_CONFIG_SH (Oldsyms.U):
165 This is set to 'true' in config.sh so that a shell script
166 sourcing config.sh can tell if it has been sourced already.
167
168PERL_API_REVISION (patchlevel.h):
169 This number describes the earliest compatible PERL_REVISION of
170 Perl ("compatibility" here being defined as sufficient binary/API
171 compatibility to run XS code built with the older version).
172 Normally this does not change across maintenance releases.
173 Please read the comment in patchlevel.h.
174
175PERL_API_VERSION (patchlevel.h):
176 This number describes the earliest compatible PERL_VERSION of
177 Perl ("compatibility" here being defined as sufficient binary/API
178 compatibility to run XS code built with the older version).
179 Normally this does not change across maintenance releases.
180 Please read the comment in patchlevel.h.
181
182PERL_API_SUBVERSION (patchlevel.h):
183 This number describes the earliest compatible PERL_SUBVERSION of
184 Perl ("compatibility" here being defined as sufficient binary/API
185 compatibility to run XS code built with the older version).
186 Normally this does not change across maintenance releases.
187 Please read the comment in patchlevel.h.
188
189PERL_PATCHLEVEL (Oldsyms.U):
190 This symbol reflects the patchlevel, if available. Will usually
191 come from the .patch file, which is available when the perl
192 source tree was fetched with rsync.
193
194config_args (Options.U):
195 This variable contains a single string giving the command-line
196 arguments passed to Configure. Spaces within arguments,
197 quotes, and escaped characters are not correctly preserved.
198 To reconstruct the command line, you must assemble the individual
199 command line pieces, given in config_arg[0-9]*.
200
201config_arg0 (Options.U):
202 This variable contains the string used to invoke the Configure
203 command, as reported by the shell in the $0 variable.
204
205config_argc (Options.U):
206 This variable contains the number of command-line arguments
207 passed to Configure, as reported by the shell in the $# variable.
208 The individual arguments are stored as variables config_arg1,
209 config_arg2, etc.
