( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
@ARGV gives you the arguments from the command line that came after the script name. How do you from inside a script get the cmd line arguments that appeared before the script name when the script was executed?

example
perl -MFoo::Module -I./specialib scriptname.pl --argv_arg
scriptname.pl needs to do a system($^X, and pass the same exact -I and -M arguments to the child perl process. The names of modules loaded with the -M are random and not from a fixed list from the viewpoint of scriptname.pl. Looking at @INC and %INC is a problem because of unpredictable PERL5LIB/PERLLIB/PERL5DB/interp compile options.

scriptname.pl is really a Makefile.PL that calls EUMM, and I'm trying to fix a problem in EUMM, where the makefile that EUMM generates determines it is out of date and regenerates itself (it=makefile), that makefile, doesn't call Makefile.PL with the same interp args (-Is and -Ms) that the 1st Makefile.PL run was called with, so the regenerated makefile is very different from the 1st makefile, which then breaks the compiling process.

  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
