Currently this bypass the @INC search > which is quite likely to make the require fail. There are other problems. First, note that modules that use AutoLoader.pm are properly loaded via a hook, because AutoLoader implements a fall-back when it can't find the file : it uses require "auto/....al" (a relative path). Modules that use DynaLoader can't be loaded, because *.so files (or equivalent) are not found. To make this work, it's necessary to patch DynaLoader in some way. There are many solutions. (One of them is to add 'caveat' about this in the docs. I don't like the idea of getting binaries from anywhere. They're less portable than Perl source.) What do people think about this ? -- Rafael Garcia-SuarezThread Previous | Thread Next
