NAME

File::Spec::VMS - methods for VMS file specs


SYNOPSIS

 use File::Spec::VMS; # Done internally by File::Spec if needed


DESCRIPTION

See File::Spec::Unix for a documentation of the methods provided there. This package overrides the implementation of these methods, not the semantics.


Methods always loaded

catdir

catfile

Concatenates a list of file specifications, and returns the result as a VMS-syntax directory specification.

curdir (override)

Returns a string representing of the current directory.

rootdir (override)

Returns a string representing of the root directory.

updir (override)

DISCLAIMER

We are painfully aware that these documents may contain incorrect links and misformatted HTML. Such bugs lie in the automatic translation process that automatically created the hundreds and hundreds of separate documents that you find here. Please do not report link or formatting bugs, because we cannot fix per-document problems. The only bug reports that will help us are those that supply working patches to the installhtml or pod2html programs, or to the Pod::HTML module itself, for which I and the entire Perl community will shower you with thanks and praises.

If rather than formatting bugs, you encounter substantive content errors in these documents, such as mistakes in the explanations or code, please use the perlbug utility included with the Perl distribution.
