639
640Config - access Perl configuration information
641
642=head1 SYNOPSIS
643
644 use Config;
645 if ($Config{usethreads}) {
646 print "has thread support\n"
647 }
648
649 use Config qw(myconfig config_sh config_vars config_re);
650
651 print myconfig();
652
653 print config_sh();
654
655 print config_re();
656
657 config_vars(qw(osname archname));
658
659
660=head1 DESCRIPTION
661
662The Config module contains all the information that was available to
663the C<Configure> program at Perl build time (over 900 values).
664
665Shell variables from the F<config.sh> file (written by Configure) are
666stored in the readonly-variable C<%Config>, indexed by their names.
667
668Values stored in config.sh as 'undef' are returned as undefined
669values. The perl C<exists> function can be used to check if a
670named variable exists.
671
672=over 4
673
674=item myconfig()
675
676Returns a textual summary of the major perl configuration values.
677See also C<-V> in L<perlrun/Switches>.
678
679=item config_sh()
680
681Returns the entire perl configuration information in the form of the
682original config.sh shell variable assignment script.
683
684=item config_re($regex)
685
686Like config_sh() but returns, as a list, only the config entries who's
687names match the $regex.
688
689=item config_vars(@names)
690
691Prints to STDOUT the values of the named configuration variable. Each is
692printed on a separate line in the form:
693
694 name='value';
695
696Names which are unknown are output as C<name='UNKNOWN';>.
697See also C<-V:name> in L<perlrun/Switches>.

700
701=head1 EXAMPLE
702
703Here's a more sophisticated example of using %Config:
704
705 use Config;
706 use strict;
707
708 my %sig_num;
709 my @sig_name;
710 unless($Config{sig_name} && $Config{sig_num}) {
711 die "No sigs?";
712 } else {
713 my @names = split ' ', $Config{sig_name};
714 @sig_num{@names} = split ' ', $Config{sig_num};
715 foreach (@names) {
716 $sig_name[$sig_num{$_}] ||= $_;
717 }
718 }
719
720 print "signal #17 = $sig_name[17]\n";
721 if ($sig_num{ALRM}) {
722 print "SIGALRM is $sig_num{ALRM}\n";
723 }
724
725=head1 WARNING
726
727Because this information is not stored within the perl executable
728itself it is possible (but unlikely) that the information does not
729relate to the actual perl binary which is being used to access it.
730
731The Config module is installed into the architecture and version
732specific library directory ($Config{installarchlib}) and it checks the
733perl version number when loaded.
734
735The values stored in config.sh may be either single-quoted or
736double-quoted. Double-quoted strings are handy for those cases where you
737need to include escape sequences in the strings. To avoid runtime variable
738interpolation, any C<$> and C<@> characters are replaced by C<\$> and
739C<\@>, respectively. This isn't foolproof, of course, so don't embed C<\$>
740or C<\@> in double-quoted strings unless you're willing to deal with the
741consequences. (The slashes will end up escaped and the C<$> or C<@> will
742trigger variable interpolation)
743
744=head1 GLOSSARY
745
746Most C<Config> variables are determined by the C<Configure> script
747on platforms supported by it (which is most UNIX platforms). Some
748platforms have custom-made C<Config> variables, and may thus not have
749some of the variables described below, or may have extraneous variables
750specific to that particular port. See the port specific documentation
751in such cases.
