Are keys and values of %INC platform-dependent or not?
- by codeholic
I'd like to get the full filename of an included module. Consider this code:
package MyTest;
my $path = join '/', split /::/, __PACKAGE__;
$path .= ".pm";
print "$INC{$path}\n";
1;
$ perl -Ipath/to/module -MMyTest -e0
path/to/module/MyTest.pm
Will it work on all platforms?
perlvar
The hash %INC contains entries for
each filename included via the do,
require, or useoperators. The key
is the filename you specified (with
module names converted to pathnames),
and the value is the location of the
file found.
Are these keys platform-dependent or not? Should I use File::Spec or what? At least ActivePerl on win32 uses / instead of \.
Update: What about %INC values? Are they platform-dependent?
