.SH NAME
File::Spec::Cygwin \- methods for Cygwin file specs
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 1
\& require File::Spec::Cygwin; # Done internally by File::Spec if needed
.Ve
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
See File::Spec and File::Spec::Unix.  This package overrides the
implementation of these methods, not the semantics.
.PP
This module is still in beta.  Cygwin-knowledgeable folks are invited
to offer patches and suggestions.
.IP canonpath 4
.IX Item "canonpath"
Any \f(CW\*(C`\e\*(C'\fR (backslashes) are converted to \f(CW\*(C`/\*(C'\fR (forward slashes),
and then File::Spec::Unix \fBcanonpath()\fR is called on the result.
.IP file_name_is_absolute 4
.IX Item "file_name_is_absolute"
True is returned if the file name begins with \f(CW\*(C`drive_letter:\*(C'\fR,
and if not, File::Spec::Unix \fBfile_name_is_absolute()\fR is called.
.IP "tmpdir (override)" 4
.IX Item "tmpdir (override)"
Returns a string representation of the first existing directory
from the following list:
.Sp
.Vb 5
\&    $ENV{TMPDIR}
\&    /tmp
\&    $ENV{\*(AqTMP\*(Aq}
\&    $ENV{\*(AqTEMP\*(Aq}
\&    C:/temp
.Ve
.Sp
If running under taint mode, and if the environment
variables are tainted, they are not used.
.IP case_tolerant 4
.IX Item "case_tolerant"
Override Unix. Cygwin case-tolerance depends on managed mount settings and
as with MsWin32 on \fBGetVolumeInformation()\fR \f(CW$ouFsFlags\fR == FS_CASE_SENSITIVE,
indicating the case significance when comparing file specifications.
