File::Spec::Cygwin(3perl) Perl Programmers Reference Guide File::Spec::Cygwin(3perl)
NAME
File::Spec::Cygwin - methods for Cygwin file specs
SYNOPSIS
require File::Spec::Cygwin; # Done internally by File::Spec if needed
DESCRIPTION
See File::Spec and File::Spec::Unix. This package overrides the implementation of these
methods, not the semantics.
This module is still in beta. Cygwin-knowledgeable folks are invited to offer patches and
suggestions.
canonpath
Any "\" (backslashes) are converted to "/" (forward slashes), and then
File::Spec::Unix canonpath() is called on the result.
file_name_is_absolute
True is returned if the file name begins with "drive_letter:", and if not,
File::Spec::Unix file_name_is_absolute() is called.
tmpdir (override)
Returns a string representation of the first existing directory from the following
list:
$ENV{TMPDIR}
/tmp
$ENV{'TMP'}
$ENV{'TEMP'}
C:/temp
If running under taint mode, and if the environment variables are tainted, they are
not used.
case_tolerant
Override Unix. Cygwin case-tolerance depends on managed mount settings and as with
MsWin32 on GetVolumeInformation() $ouFsFlags == FS_CASE_SENSITIVE, indicating the case
significance when comparing file specifications. Default: 1
