There's two things going on here - the
PerlSwitches -Mblib=C:\Apache2
is specifying to use the C:\Apache2\blib directory. The
PerlModule Apache2
is loading C:\Apache2\blib\lib\Apache2.pm, which
modifies @INC to include @INC directories with Apache2/
appended (eg, C:\Apache\blib\lib\Apache2, in this case).
Thus, Apache::HelloWorld would be found in
C:\Apache2\blib\lib\Apache2\Apache\HelloWorld.pm
Apache2.pm us useful if you want to install mod_perl-2
stuff in a Perl tree that already contains mod_perl-1
things under an Apache/ subdirectory.
