File::Spec::VMS - methods for VMS file specs
require File::Spec::VMS; # Done internally by File::Spec if needed
See File::Spec::Unix for a documentation of the methods provided
there. This package overrides the implementation of these methods, not
the semantics.
- eliminate_macros
-
Expands MM[KS]/Make macros in a text string, using the contents of
identically named elements of
%$self
, and returns the result
as a file specification in Unix syntax.
- fixpath
-
Catchall routine to clean up problem MM[SK]/Make macros. Expands macros
in any directory specification, in order to avoid juxtaposing two
VMS-syntax directories when MM[SK] is run. Also expands expressions which
are all macro, so that we can tell how long the expansion is, and avoid
overrunning DCL's command buffer when MM[KS] is running.
-
If optional second argument has a TRUE value, then the return string is
a VMS-syntax directory specification, if it is FALSE, the return string
is a VMS-syntax file specification, and if it is not specified, fixpath()
checks to see whether it matches the name of a directory in the current
default directory, and returns a directory or file specification accordingly.
- canonpath (override)
-
Removes redundant portions of file specifications according to VMS syntax.
- catdir
-
Concatenates a list of file specifications, and returns the result as a
VMS-syntax directory specification. No check is made for ``impossible''
cases (e.g. elements other than the first being absolute filespecs).
- catfile
-
Concatenates a list of file specifications, and returns the result as a
VMS-syntax file specification.
- curdir (override)
-
Returns a string representation of the current directory: '[]'
- devnull (override)
-
Returns a string representation of the null device: '_NLA0:'
- rootdir (override)
-
Returns a string representation of the root directory: 'SYS$DISK:[000000]'
- tmpdir (override)
-
Returns a string representation of the first writable directory
from the following list or '' if none are writable:
-
sys$scratch:
$ENV{TMPDIR}
-
Since perl 5.8.0, if running under taint mode, and if $ENV{TMPDIR}
is tainted, it is not used.
- updir (override)
-
Returns a string representation of the parent directory: '[-]'
- case_tolerant (override)
-
VMS file specification syntax is case-tolerant.
- path (override)
-
Translate logical name DCL$PATH as a searchlist, rather than trying
to
split
string value of $ENV{'PATH'}
.
- file_name_is_absolute (override)
-
Checks for VMS directory spec as well as Unix separators.
- splitpath (override)
-
Splits using VMS syntax.
- splitdir (override)
-
Split dirspec using VMS syntax.
- catpath (override)
-
Construct a complete filespec using VMS syntax
- abs2rel (override)
-
Use VMS syntax when converting filespecs.
- rel2abs (override)
-
Use VMS syntax when converting filespecs.
