The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: File::Stat::Bits
DSLIP: bdpfg
description: stat(2) constants
userid: FEDOROV (Dmitry Fedorov)
chapterid: 10 (File_Names_Systems_Locking)
communities:
similar:
POSIX
rationale:
Lots of Perl modules use the Unix file permissions and type bits
directly in binary form with risk of non-portability for some exotic
bits.
Note that the POSIX module does not provides all needed constants
and I can't wait when the POSIX module will be updated.
This separate module provides file type/mode bit and more constants
from sys/stat.ph.
This module also should concentrate all portability and
compatibility issues.
