Thanks for the answer but the portability goal is not met with your
suggestion. If I change the location where my files are stored (the
location from the point of view of the filsystem) it does no longer
work. And I would have dozens of config files with different picture
paths. The idea with getting the absolute current path while the
script is running with
-f "%ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/pictures/photo1.jpg")
is working fine. Even if I have to change every script but that can be
done "half" automatically.
Thanks for your help.

Yes, that seems to work:
$ perl5.10.0 -e 'print $]'
5.010000
$ perl5.8.8 -e 'print $]'
5.008008
$ perl5.8.2 -e 'print $]'
5.008002
$ perl5.8.0 -e 'print $]'
5.008
$ perl5.6.1 -e 'print $]'
5.006001
Little question: Since this is a floating point number, are there any
rounding-error considerations when making comparisons and such?
Also, is there a reason why 5.10's output pads zeros on the right-hand
end of the number?

those are all well within the float range but i bet they really are
strings. you can check this with some stuff in scalar::util.

that is obvious. there is room for a subrelease number (as in all the
5.8 versions). 5.10.2 will likely have $] as 5.010002

I'll do that.

Well, look at the output I posted; the one for 5.8.0 was 5.0008 (no
right-hand padding) while 5.10.0 is padded. I wanted to know why there
is a discrepancy?

Too bad that they didn't come up with this, hmm, let's say somewhere around
when 5.6.x came, that would have resulted in all my perl code beeing certainly
working with the version mentioned with 'use' - because now that I have given
thought to it I am quite confident on one single thing of this subject and
that is I started with perl 5.6.x, so... So having now checked "Whats New in
5.6.0" list of new stuff I'd say that if I one day install couple older
versions of perl5 to examine if my scripts/apps needs newer version than
whatever I have I pretty much know that theres not much point to test most of
the scripts with anythin before 5.6.0.. well at least not much before.

Doesnt sound like a bad and stressful way... But I then again often try to be
perfect on matters with little meaning, I could propably spend quite some time
to check through every version of perl and test them all when I start to go a
bit nutty :D

I have to learn about them features... You know I still know apparently perl
enough to be able to learn fast what I dont remember... but I'm bad enough to
still get frequently surprised and confused and thinking about beatles coming
to town.

Perl 5.6.0 is old enough that there's generally not much point in
testing with anything older. Authors of CPAN modules might want to
support older versions but for typical programmers it's a waste
of effort.

Don't. You only need to support the environments you're developing for.
If you can count on v5.x installed use it and take advantage of whatever
features it has to offer. There's no point in pursuing backward
compatibility for its own sake.

Subject: Detecting C compiler in Makefile.PL
Message-Id: <68rr2tF2ttsvtU1@mid.uni-berlin.de>
Hello,
a CPAN module of mine that needs a C compiler for installation
fails in some of the tests since the C compiler isn't found. The
offending lines are
if ( system $Config{cc}, qw( -o cc_test cc_test.c ) ) {
unlink 'cc_test.c';
die "Can't run C compiler '$Config{cc}'\n";
}
where 'cc_test.c' is a simple program that gets created
automatically just for this test.
The problem is that on one of the testers machines $Config{cc}
is set to 'ccache cc' and system() obviously does not like the
space in the name of the program it's supposed to execute.
Now I probably can get around that by using a line like
if ( system split /\s+/, $Config{cc}, qw( -o cc_test cc_test.c ) ) {
or something similar but it looks ugly and I suspect that there
is a better method to invoke the correct C compiler. Does anybody
have an idea?
Thanks and regards, Jens

system fails because you are passing part as a string and
part as a list. Just pass a single string and let system
do the parsing.
if (system "$Config{cc} -o cc_test cc_test.c")

Agreed wholeheartedly. While I consider myself a moderately experienced
perl geek, I'm far, far away from a true expert. More often than not,
the FAQ postings will trigger something of interest or simply refresh
knowledge that got a little stale. Many a time, I've read the odd FAQ
posting and thought "So *that's* how it's done", simply because it
wasn't important enough in the past to look up, but now makes future
coding easier because of the new knowledge.
