File::Spec::VMS - methods for VMS file specs
SYNOPSIS
require File::Spec::VMS; # Done internally by File::Spec if needed
DESCRIPTION
See File::Spec::Unix for a documentation of the methods providedthere. This package overrides the implementation of these methods, notthe semantics.
- canonpath (override)
- Removes redundant portions of file specifications according to VMS syntax.
- catdir (override)
- Concatenates a list of file specifications, and returns the result as aVMS-syntax directory specification. No check is made for ``impossible''cases (e.g. elements other than the first being absolute filespecs).
- catfile (override)
- Concatenates a list of file specifications, and returns the result as aVMS-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$DISK:[000000]'
- tmpdir (override)
- Returns a string representation of the first writable directoryfrom the following list or '' if none are writable:
sys$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 tryingto "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)
