Subject: File::Which bug

To: bug-File-Which [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Robert William Leach <rleach [...] genomics.princeton.edu>
Hi, Not sure if this is a bug or whether it's working as intended, however, I would have expected that the return would be the same as `which` at the command line. perl -e 'use File::Which;print($File::Which::VERSION,"\n")' 1.09 perl --version This is perl 5, version 16, subversion 2 (v5.16.2) built for darwin-thread-multi-2level (with 3 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail) ... uname -a Darwin gen-rlimac 13.4.0 Darwin Kernel Version 13.4.0: Sun Aug 17 19:50:11 PDT 2014; root:xnu-2422.115.4~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64 Expected behavior: I would have expected that: perl -e 'use File::Which;print(scalar(which("/usr/local/bin/usearch7.0.1090_i86osx32")),"\n")' would be the same as: which /usr/local/bin/usearch7.0.1090_i86osx32 /usr/local/bin/usearch7.0.1090_i86osx32 Observed behavior: But instead, it returns an undefined value: perl -e 'use File::Which;print((defined(scalar(which("/usr/local/bin/usearch7.0.1090_i86osx32"))) ? "defined" : "undefined"),"\n")' undefined Rob Robert William Leach 133A Carl C. Icahn Lab Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics Princeton University Princeton, NJ 08544
