Many of the perl modules I have to deal with load a\ncommon Config.pm module. The Config module tries (at compile time, sadly) to\nlocate and load a configuration file. The location of the config file is\n'guessed' from the current path of the compiled module. Something along the\nlines of: look for the config file at $CWD/../../../config/config_file. In\nmy particular case, the guess is fine when loading files from the project\nroot, but not when loading from the source_root_directory.\n\nThanks,\n\nJan\n\n--\n> Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub:\n>\n> https://github.com/jplindstrom/p5-Devel-PerlySense/pull/1#issuecomment-2341499\n>","updated_at":"2011-10-10T09:29:11Z","url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jplindstrom/p5-Devel-PerlySense/issues/comments/2344364","id":2344364,"user":{"avatar_url":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/4e1e74d09a1c1c3c38f91da5ddd75ab2?d=https://a248.e.akamai.net/assets.github.com%2Fimages%2Fgravatars%2Fgravatar-140.png","url":"https://api.github.com/users/jtatarik","id":1110142,"login":"jtatarik"}},"action":"created","issue":{"number":1,"created_at":"2011-10-07T13:31:47Z","pull_request":{"diff_url":"https://github.com/jplindstrom/p5-Devel-PerlySense/pull/1.diff","patch_url":"https://github.com/jplindstrom/p5-Devel-PerlySense/pull/1.patch","html_url":"https://github.com/jplindstrom/p5-Devel-PerlySense/pull/1"},"body":"keep the default at 'file_directory'","comments":3,"title":"Tweakable 'run_from' directory when running flymake_file","updated_at":"2011-10-10T09:29:11Z","url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jplindstrom/p5-Devel-PerlySense/issues/1","id":1843497,"assignee":null,"milestone":null,"closed_at":null,"user":{"avatar_url":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/4e1e74d09a1c1c3c38f91da5ddd75ab2?d=https://a248.e.akamai.net/assets.github.com%2Fimages%2Fgravatars%2Fgravatar-140.png","url":"https://api.github.com/users/jtatarik","id":1110142,"login":"jtatarik"},"html_url":"https://github.com/jplindstrom/p5-Devel-PerlySense/issues/1","labels":[],"state":"open"},"legacy":{"issue_id":1843497,"comment_id":2344364}}
