SYNOPSIS

    use File::ShareDir::PathClass '-all';
    my $dir = dist_dir("File-ShareDir-PathClass")
    # $dir is a Path::Class object now

    # - or -

    # $dir is a Path::Class object now

DESCRIPTION

This module is just a wrapper around File::ShareDir functions, transforming their return value to Path::Class objects. This allows for easier usage of the value.

Refer to File::ShareDir (section FUNCTIONS) for a list of which functions are supported.

"File::ShareDir::PathClass" supports both a procedural and a clas methods API.

Procedural mode

All functions are exportable. Nothing is exported by default, though. One has to list which function(s) she wants to import.

Some groups are defined for your convenience:

•: "all" - all available functions.

Note that this module is exporting subs via Sub::Exporter, so groups are available either as ":group" or "-group". One can also play any trick supported by Sub::Exporter, check its documentation for further information.

Class method mode

Otherwise, functions are available as class methods, called as:

    File::ShareDir::PathClass->method();

In this case, one doesn't need to import anything during module use-age.
