Subject: [ruby-core:41188] [ruby-trunk - Feature #5658] Wrap mkmf.rb in a module to clean up documentation


Issue #5658 has been updated by Nobuyoshi Nakada.


=begin
I agree the concept, and have planned for it.

But, the patch reverts (({try_func})) partially (and
unintentionally?), and (({try_header})) should be defined in the
module not only in (({Object})).

Also, since (({mkmf_failed})) should not be registered more than once,
(({END})) block should not be moved?

Feature #5658: Wrap mkmf.rb in a module to clean up documentation
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/5658

Author: Eric Hodel
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: lib
Target version: 2.0.0


=begin
Currently all of the methods in mkmf.rb exist at the top-level.  This causes methods from mkmf.rb to show up in Object in ((%ri%)).

The attached patch wraps the functionality of mkmf.rb in a module MakeMakefile which is then included at top-level.

This preserves the existing functionality while separating the documentation.

The patch survives `make clean; make` on OS X 10.7
