The C pragma serves as one of the interfaces to declare default "layers" (aka disciplines) for all I/O. The C pragma is used to declare one or more default layers for I/O operations. Any open(), readpipe() (aka qx//) and similar operators found within the lexical scope of this pragma will use the declared defaults. When open() is given an explicit list of layers they are appended to the list declared using this pragma. Directory handles may also support disciplines in future. =head1 NONPERLIO FUNCTIONALITY If Perl is not built to use PerlIO as its IO system then only the two pseudo-disciplines ":raw" and ":crlf" are available. The ":raw" discipline corresponds to "binary mode" and the ":crlf" discipline corresponds to "text mode" on platforms that distinguish between the two modes when opening files (which is many DOS-like platforms, including Windows). These two disciplines are no-ops on platforms where binmode() is a no-op, but perform their functions everywhere if PerlIO is enabled. =head1 IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS There is a class method in C C which is implemented as XS code. It is called by C to validate the layers: PerlIO::Layer::->find("perlio") The return value (if defined) is a Perl object, of class C which is created by the C code in F. As yet there is nothing useful you can do with the object at the perl level. =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L, L =cut
