using h2xs to create hierarchical modules

I may be just showing signs of early alzheimer's but I thought I could accomplish something with the h2xs command and find I can't.

Maybe I just dreamed it but here is what I thought I remembered: if I run h2xs once such that:

$ h2xs -AXn Foo
[download]

it would create a directory with all the Foo module stuff in it in a CPAN compatible manner. Here's where my memory fails me. I thought that if I followed up with:

$ h2xs -AXn Foo::Bar
$ h2xs -AXn Foo::Baz
$ h2xs -AXn Foo::Bar::Blaht
[download]

that there was a way to cooerce h2xs to put all of them in the same directory tree and update stuff along the way.

Did that work once upon a time or did I dream it?

Tried it... Like it. I've also been using the Module::Starter::AddModule plug in to add the modules I forgot. :-) Peter L. Berghold -- Unix Professional Peter -at- Berghold -dot- Net; AOL IM redcowdawg Yahoo IM: blue_cowdawg	[reply]

You may also want to look at Dist::Zilla, the heir to Module::Starter. xoxo, Andy	[reply]
