package Cwd; require 5.000; =head1 NAME Cwd - get pathname of current working directory =head1 SYNOPSIS use Cwd; $dir = cwd; use Cwd; $dir = getcwd; use Cwd; $dir = fastcwd; use Cwd; $dir = fastgetcwd; use Cwd 'chdir'; chdir "/tmp"; print $ENV{'PWD'}; use Cwd 'abs_path'; # aka realpath() print abs_path($ENV{'PWD'}); use Cwd 'fast_abs_path'; print fast_abs_path($ENV{'PWD'}); =head1 DESCRIPTION This module provides functions for determining the pathname of the current working directory. By default, it exports the functions cwd(), getcwd(), fastcwd(), and fastgetcwd() into the caller's namespace. Each of these functions are called without arguments and return the absolute path of the current working directory. It is recommended that cwd (or another *cwd() function) be used in I code to ensure portability. The cwd() is the most natural and safe form for the current architecture. For most systems it is identical to `pwd` (but without the trailing line terminator). The getcwd() function re-implements the getcwd(3) (or getwd(3)) functions in Perl. The fastcwd() function looks the same as getcwd(), but runs faster. It's also more dangerous because it might conceivably chdir() you out of a directory that it can't chdir() you back into. If fastcwd encounters a problem it will return undef but will probably leave you in a different directory. For a measure of extra security, if everything appears to have worked, the fastcwd() function will check that it leaves you in the same directory that it started in. If it has changed it will C with the message "Unstable directory path, current directory changed unexpectedly". That should never happen. The fastgetcwd() function is provided as a synonym for cwd(). The abs_path() function takes a single argument and returns the absolute pathname for that argument. It uses the same algorithm as getcwd(). (Actually, getcwd() is abs_path(".")) Symbolic links and relative-path components ("." and "..") are resolved to return the canonical pathname, just like realpath(3). This function is also callable as realpath(). The fast_abs_path() function looks the same as abs_path() but runs faster and, like fastcwd(), is more dangerous. If you ask to override your chdir() built-in function, then your PWD environment variable will be kept up to date. (See L.) Note that it will only be kept up to date if all packages which use chdir import it from Cwd. =cut use strict; use Carp; our $VERSION = '2.04'; use base qw/ Exporter /; our @EXPORT = qw(cwd getcwd fastcwd fastgetcwd); our @EXPORT_OK = qw(chdir abs_path fast_abs_path realpath fast_realpath); # sys_cwd may keep the builtin command # All the functionality of this module may provided by builtins, # there is no sense to process the rest of the file. # The best choice may be to have this in BEGIN, but how to return from BEGIN? if ($^O eq 'os2' && defined &sys_cwd && defined &sys_abspath) { local $^W = 0; *cwd = \&sys_cwd; *getcwd = \&cwd; *fastgetcwd = \&cwd; *fastcwd = \&cwd; *abs_path = \&sys_abspath; *fast_abs_path = \&abs_path; *realpath = \&abs_path; *fast_realpath = \&abs_path; return 1; } eval { require XSLoader; XSLoader::load('Cwd'); }; # The 'natural and safe form' for UNIX (pwd may be setuid root) sub _backtick_pwd { my $cwd = `pwd`; # `pwd` may fail e.g. if the disk is full chomp($cwd) if defined $cwd; $cwd; } # Since some ports may predefine cwd internally (e.g., NT) # we take care not to override an existing definition for cwd(). unless(defined &cwd) { # The pwd command is not available in some chroot(2)'ed environments if($^O eq 'MacOS' || grep { -x "$_/pwd" } split(':', $ENV{PATH})) { *cwd = \&_backtick_pwd; } else { *cwd = \&getcwd; } } # set a reasonable (and very safe) default for fastgetcwd, in case it # isn't redefined later (20001212 rspier) *fastgetcwd = \&cwd; # By Brandon S.
