Autoconf is an extensible package of m4 macros that produce shell scripts to automatically configure software source code packages. These scripts can adapt the packages to many kinds of UNIX-like systems without manual user intervention. Autoconf creates a configuration script for a package from a template file that lists the operating system features that the package can use, in the form of m4 macro calls.

AutoDia is a modular application that parses source code or data (if a handler is available) and produces an XML document in Dia format, essentially a Dia diagram auto creation package. The diagrams it creates are standard UML diagrams showing dependencies, superclasses, packages, classes and inheritances, as well as the methods, etc of each class. AutoDia supports any language that a Handler has been written for - currently this is C++, DBI, Java, PHP, Perl, Python, SQL and Torque (XML DB schema). Adding a handler is easy - read the DEVELOP file for details.

Certain applications like to defer the decision to use a particular module till runtime. This is possible in perl, and is a useful trick in situations where the type of data is not known at compile time and the application doesn't wish to pre-compile modules to handle all types of data it can work with. Loading modules at runtime can also provide flexible interfaces for perl modules. Modules can let the programmer decide what modules will be used by it instead of hard-coding their names.

The Class::MakeMethods framework allows Perl class developers to quickly define common types of methods. When a module "use"s a subclass of Class::MakeMethods, it can select from the supported method types, and specify a name for each method desired. The methods are dynamically generated and installed in the calling package.

The Autodist is a source distribution management system that allows powerful mechanisms to define what is included in and excluded from a distribution, and what license the distribution is released under. It is also used to create the actual distribution source packages. Autodist allows distribution management in file, directory and file content level. Autodist is especially targeted for large software projects, and projects where multiple distributions are created from one source tree.

from the README: This module solves the problem of having to write a bazillion get/set methods that are all the same. The argument to 'use' is a hash whose keys are the names of types of generic methods generated by MethodMaker and whose values tell method maker what methods to make. (More precisely, the keys are the names of MethodMaker methods (methods that write methods) and the values are the arguments to those methods.

Class::MethodMapper - Abstract Class wrapper for AutoLoader

Class::Mixin provides a way to mix methods from one class into another, such that the target class can use both its methods as well as those of the source class. The primary advantage is that the behavior of a class can be modified to effectively be another class without changing any of the calling code -- just requires using the new class that mixes into the original.
