Re: [cobalt-users] Perl and lib-files

["Jelmer Jellema" <cobalt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mikael,

Yes, no problem. these are modulair files consisting of perl functions and
the like. One can include those using the "use" or "require" keywords.

Your client could create a perl directory in the sites dir, like
/home/sites/siteX/perl

to add this directory to the module include path in perl, (s)he should put
something like:

-------------------------
BEGIN
{
#set HOME environment var
    $ENV{HOME} = (getpwuid($>))[7];
#same for SITE
    $ENV{SITE} = "$ENV{HOME}/../.."; #cobalt: user dir is 2 levels under
site dir
#add module dir to inc-list:
    unshift(@INC, "$ENV{SITE}/perl");
}
--------------------------

to the start of all scripts (or use the #/usr/bin/perl -I syntax).

Jelmer
