compile_date#

Return a one-line description of when and with what the interpreter was built.

Synopsis#

use Config;
print Config::compile_date(), "\n";

What you get back#

A scalar string such as Compiled with rustc 1.xx (...). The exact format is stable enough to log but not intended for machine parsing; prefer %Config entries for structured fields.

Differences from upstream#

  • Describes the Rust toolchain that built pperl rather than a C compiler invocation date. Callers that only print the string are unaffected; callers that parse it for a specific date layout need to adapt.
