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.
Removes redundant portions of file specifications according to VMS syntax.
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).
Concatenates a list of file specifications, and returns the result as a VMS-syntax file specification.
Returns a string representation of the current directory: '[]'
Returns a string representation of the null device: '_NLA0:'
Returns a string representation of the root directory: 'SYS$DISK:[000000]'
Returns a string representation of the first writable directory from the following list or '' if none are writable:
- sys$scratch:
- $ENV{TMPDIR}
Since perl 5.8.0, if running under taint mode, and if $ENV{TMPDIR} is tainted, it is not used.
Returns a string representation of the parent directory: '[-]'
VMS file specification syntax is case-tolerant.
Translate logical name DCL$PATH as a searchlist, rather than trying
to split string value of $ENV{'PATH'}
.
Checks for VMS directory spec as well as Unix separators.
Splits using VMS syntax.
Split dirspec using VMS syntax.
Construct a complete filespec using VMS syntax
