Re^2: Module::Build's pm_files in ExtUtils::MakeMaker?

Hi! Thanks for your reply.

With your suggestion, i can now do the following which allows me to get rid of the pm_files section.

my $build = Module::Build->new(
    # ...
    tmpl_files         => {
        'etc/photos_index.tmpl'  => 'lib/CGI/Application/PhotoGallery/
+photos_index.tmpl',
         'etc/photos_single.tmpl' => 'lib/CGI/Application/PhotoGallery
+/photos_single.tmpl',
    }
);

$build->add_build_element( 'tmpl' );
$build->create_build_script;

So, Thanks! =)

However, the auto-generated Makefile.PL still has no idea about those templates and will not install them as needed.

I'd bring it up on the Module::Build mailing list. It looks like it might not be too hard to patch Module::Build::Compat to write a `PMLIBDIRS` argument to the Makefile.PL -- assuming that's the right way to do it... I don't know ExtUtils::MakeMaker well enough.. -xdg Code written by xdg and posted on PerlMonks is public domain. It is provided as is with no warranties, express or implied, of any kind.

Just in case anyone stumbles across this older post ... it's possible that the issue has been fixed, but there's (currently) nothing to stop you from using a different build element whose files are also in `lib`, where MakeMaker would find them: `tmpl_files => { map { $_ => $_ } glob( 'lib/CGI/Application/PhotoGallery/*.tmpl' +) },` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Same year as this thread, the real solution emerged, use File::ShareDir and File::ShareDir::Install for templates	[reply]
