You can supply to the constructor any option recognized by "ExtUtils::CBuilder" constructor. None of them will be used by "LibBuilder".

link

   $libbuilder -> link( objects     => [ "foo.o", "bar.o" ],
                        module_name => "foobar",
                        lib_file    => "libfoobar$libbuilder->{libext}");

Options to the link method are the same as the "CBuilder" counterpart. Note that the result is a standalone C Library and not a bundle to be loaded by Perl.

Also, note that you can use the "libext" key to retrieve from the object the common library extension on the running system (including the dot).

link_executable

  $libbuilder->link_executable( objects => ["main.o"],
                                extra_linker_flags => "-L. -lfoobar",
                                exe_file => "foobarcmd$libbuilder->{exeext}");

The "link_executable" needs, as "extra_linker_flags" options, the name of the library and the search path. Future versions might include better handling on the library files.

Also, note that you can use the "exeext" key to retrieve from the object the common executable extension on the running system (including the dot).
