File::Spec::Cygwin - methods for Cygwin file specs
require File::Spec::Cygwin; # Done internally by File::Spec if needed
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
