The simplest way is: perl -MModule -e0 If that runs without Perl saying "Can't find Module.pm in ...", you've got the module.

You can use the ExtUtils::Installed module to list all the modules installed in your copy of perl. It's available in CPAN.

I am not too sure of how a modules gets included in this list, because there are modules in the list which I don't believe I installed myself. -- Greg Matheson It was said a million monkeys on a million typewriters Chinmin College would eventually write the works of Shakespeare.

Hello Alex,
You could run the below perl Script. Hopes this helps.
Regards,
Jaimee
#!/usr/bin/perl
# list all of the perl modules installed
use File::Find ;
for (@INC) { find(\&modules,$_) ; }
sub modules
{
if (-d && /^[a-z]/) { $File::Find::prune = 1 ; return }
return unless /\.pm$/ ;
my $fullPath = "$File::Find::dir/$_";
$fullPath =~ s!\.pm$!!;
$fullPath =~ s#/(\w+)$#::$1# ;
print "$fullPath \n";
}

the great Trick - and thank you for the snappy intro to File::Find
since I have never been there... thank you!
what I did run into is one of those odd annomalies that happens -
that piece of code 'ran away' for reasons that were not clear
until I started to check with:
http://www.wetware.com/drieux/CS/lang/Perl/Beginners/simpleFindTest.txt
it seems that this form of find causes a bit of a Mess if
you pass in the $_ - I tried a few variations on a them
#find(\&wants,$_) for(@The_Inc_We_Use);
#for(@The_Inc_We_Use) { find(\&wants,$_) ; }
#foreach( sort(@The_Inc_We_Use)) {find(\&wants,$_) ;}
and they all 'ate it' - and this was true across three OS's.
darwin, solaris, linux redhat 7.2 ... perl 5.6.1
but it will work with
foreach my $dir (@The_Inc_We_Use) { find(\&wants,$dir); }
since I wanted the idea to work - but wanted it to be
sorted down to just the module names I offer you:
http://www.wetware.com/drieux/CS/lang/Perl/Beginners/findModules.txt
If this is actually a 'bug' how should it get reported back
I can not find a $VERSION nor anyone on the hoof for maintaining this.

RE: How to check installed Modules in perl
Drieux,
Thanks for your insight on the below code. Findmodules.pl is a find
piece of art with your mods.
As for as reporting back the Bug! If it is a bug, I really can't
answer that one. Once again thanks for rewrite and the link to your
website. I never knew about it, it will for sure come in handy.
Regards,
Jaimee
