File::PathList Description

File::PathList is a Perl module that can find a file within a set of paths (like @INC or Java classpaths). File::PathList is a Perl module that can find a file within a set of paths (like @INC or Java classpaths).SYNOPSIS # Create a basic pathset my $inc = File::PathList->new( @INC ); # Again, but with more explicit params my $inc2 = File::PathList->new( paths => @INC, cache => 1, ); # Get the full (localised) path for a unix-style relative path my $file = "foo/bar/baz.txt"; my $path = $inc->find_file( $file ); if ( $path ) { print "Found '$file' at '$path'n"; } else { print "Failed to find '$file'n"; }Many systems that map generic relative paths to absolute paths do so with a set of base paths.For example, perl itself when loading classes first turn a Class::Name into a path like Class/Name.pm, and thens looks through each element of @INC to find the actual file.To aid in portability, all relative paths are provided as unix-style relative paths, and converted to the localised version in the process of looking up the path.
