9FindBin - Locate directory of original perl script
10
11=head1 SYNOPSIS
12
13 use FindBin;
d7791a84 14 use lib "$FindBin::Bin/../lib";
a73990fd 15
8b88ae92 16 or
a73990fd 17
18 use FindBin qw($Bin);
d7791a84 19 use lib "$Bin/../lib";
a73990fd 20
21=head1 DESCRIPTION
22
23Locates the full path to the script bin directory to allow the use
24of paths relative to the bin directory.
25
26This allows a user to setup a directory tree for some software with
1fef88e7 27directories E<lt>rootE<gt>/bin and E<lt>rootE<gt>/lib and then the above example will allow
a73990fd 28the use of modules in the lib directory without knowing where the software
29tree is installed.
30
84dc3c4d 31If perl is invoked using the B<-e> option or the perl script is read from
a73990fd 32C<STDIN> then FindBin sets both C<$Bin> and C<$RealBin> to the current
33directory.
34
35=head1 EXPORTABLE VARIABLES
36
37 $Bin - path to bin directory from where script was invoked
38 $Script - basename of script from which perl was invoked
39 $RealBin - $Bin with all links resolved
40 $RealScript - $Script with all links resolved
41
42=head1 KNOWN BUGS
43
44if perl is invoked as
45
46 perl filename
47
48and I<filename> does not have executable rights and a program called I<filename>
84dc3c4d 49exists in the users C<$ENV{PATH}> which satisfies both B<-x> and B<-T> then FindBin
a73990fd 50assumes that it was invoked via the C<$ENV{PATH}>.
51
52Workaround is to invoke perl as
53
54 perl ./filename
