I don't understand how environment variables and @INC play together on
Win32. I have an IIS server (5.0 I believ), with a system environment
variable
PERL5LIB=c:/agdata/libperl
Given a simple CGI script, run under IIS:
print <<HTML;
content-type: text/plain
PERL5LIB=$ENV{PERL5LIB}
HTML
print "inc=$_\n" for @INC
__END__
I get the following output:
PERL5LIB=C:/agdata/libperl
inc=C:/Perl/lib
inc=C:/Perl/site/lib
I would have expected that the directory pointed to by PERL5LIB would be
listed in the @INC array, but it's not (and a module that appears in
said directory cannot be found). On a Unix machine, I get something like
the following:
% perl -I/tmp/libperl -le 'print for @INC'
/tmp/libperl
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/mach
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.6/mach
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.6
Am I missing something blindingly obvious? Or some IIS subtlety?
Thanks for clues,
David
