I am running windows 10 and enabled the Ubuntu linux functionality
I loaded Strawberry perl 5.30.2 under this linux
This linux mounts the windows drives using this mount method
mount -t drvfs c: /mnt/c
So in bash, I can cd to /mnt/c/Strawberry
If I go into perl and use this command it will come back false even
though it is a directory
/mnt/c/Strawberry/perl/bin/perl5.30.2,exe -e "if ( -d
'/mnt/c/Strawberry' ) {print 'ISADIRECTORY';}"
I tried this with the /usr/bin/perl verwion 5.22.1 that comes with
windows bash and it works fine.
I assume there is a problem in this mount scheme???
Let me know if I can help.
