# NAME

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

# SYNOPSIS

     require File::Spec::Cygwin; # Done internally by File::Spec if needed

# DESCRIPTION

See File::Spec and File::Spec::Unix. This package overrides the implementation of these methods, not the semantics.

This module is still in beta. Cygwin-knowledgeable folks are invited to offer patches and suggestions.

- canonpath

  Any `\` (backslashes) are converted to `/` (forward slashes), and then File::Spec::Unix canonpath() is called on the result.

- file_name_is_absolute

  True is returned if the file name begins with `drive_letter:` , and if not, File::Spec::Unix file_name_is_absolute() is called.

- tmpdir (override)

  Returns a string representation of the first existing directory from the following list:

          $ENV{TMPDIR}    /tmp    $ENV{'TMP'}    $ENV{'TEMP'}    C:/temp

  If running under taint mode, and if the environment variables are tainted, they are not used.

- case_tolerant

  Override Unix. Cygwin case-tolerance depends on managed mount settings and as with MsWin32 on GetVolumeInformation() $ouFsFlags == FS_CASE_SENSITIVE, indicating the case significance when comparing file specifications. Default: 1
