NAME Devel::FakeOSName - Make Perl think it runs on a different OS SYNOPSIS # build us Makefile for aix perl -MDevel::FakeOSName=aix Makefile.PL DESCRIPTION Sometimes your code includes code specific to an OS that you don't have an access to, but you want to see what happens if it was to run on that other OS. Currently mostly useful for looking at generated Makefiles. Needs much more work to be really useful. TODO Currently the module just modifies $^O and $Config{osname}. Could probably somehow supply overrides for other %Config::Config values and ExtUtils::Embed. Patches are welcome.
