# FindBin.pm # # Copyright (c) 1995 Graham Barr & Nick Ing-Simmons. All rights reserved. # This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it # under the same terms as Perl itself. =head1 NAME FindBin - Locate directory of original perl script =head1 SYNOPSIS use FindBin; use lib "$FindBin::Bin/../lib"; or use FindBin qw($Bin); use lib "$Bin/../lib"; =head1 DESCRIPTION Locates the full path to the script bin directory to allow the use of paths relative to the bin directory. This allows a user to setup a directory tree for some software with directories C<< <root>/bin >> and C<< <root>/lib >>, and then the above example will allow the use of modules in the lib directory without knowing where the software tree is installed. If perl is invoked using the B<-e> option or the perl script is read from C<STDIN> then FindBin sets both C<$Bin> and C<$RealBin> to the current directory. =head1 EXPORTABLE VARIABLES $Bin - path to bin directory from where script was invoked $Script - basename of script from which perl was invoked $RealBin - $Bin with all links resolved $RealScript - $Script with all links resolved =head1 KNOWN ISSUES If there are two modules using C<FindBin> from different directories under the same interpreter, this won't work. Since C<FindBin> uses a C<BEGIN> block, it'll be executed only once, and only the first caller will get it right. This is a problem under mod_perl and other persistent Perl environments, where you shouldn't use this module. Which also means that you should avoid using C<FindBin> in modules that you plan to put on CPAN. To make sure that C<FindBin> will work is to call the C<again> function: use FindBin; FindBin::again(); # or FindBin->again; In former versions of FindBin there was no C<again> function. The workaround was to force the C<BEGIN> block to be executed again: delete $INC{'FindBin.pm'}; require FindBin; =head1 AUTHORS FindBin is supported as part of the core perl distribution.
