NAME
ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes - Version-agnostic bytes.pm
SYNOPSIS
use just like bytes.pmDESCRIPTION
bytes.pm was introduced with 5.6. This means any code which has 'use bytes' in it won't even compile on 5.5.X. Since bytes is a lexical pragma and must be used at compile time we can't simply wrap it in a BEGIN { eval 'use bytes' } block.ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes is just a very thin wrapper around bytes
which works just like it when bytes.pm exists and everywhere else it does nothing.perl v5.8.8 2001-09-21 ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes(3pm)
