NAME File::HomeDir::Win32 - Find home directories on Win32 systems REQUIREMENTS This package requires Perl 5.6.0 and following modules (most of which are not included with Perl): Win32::Security::SID Win32::TieRegistry INSTALLATION Installation can be done using the traditional Makefile.PL or the newer Build.PL methods. Using Makefile.PL: perl Makefile.PL make test make install (On Windows platforms you should use `nmake' instead.) Using Build.PL on systems with Module::Build installed: perl Build.PL perl Build test perl Build install SYNOPSIS use File::HomeDir::Win32; print "My dir is ",home()," and root's is ",home('Administrator'),"\n"; DESCRIPTION This module provides routines for finding home directories on Win32 systems. It was designed as a companion to File::HomeDir that overrides the existing `home' function, which does not properly locate home directories on Windows machines. See the module documentation for more details. REVISION HISTORY The following changes have been made since the last release: 0.03 Wed May 18 2005 - added tests - when no profiles can be found, it will not override File::HomeDir - code tweaks - fixed another warning - Perl 5.6.0-specific code cleanup See the Changes file for a detailed history.
