Subject: Check links for functions as well as modules
L<binmode> should be considered valid even though there is no such module on CPAN. <mike> Apocalypse: Test::Pod::LinkCheck is telling me "Unknown link type(pod) to(binmode) - module doesn't exist in CPAN"... is that right? <Apocalypse> mike: Interesting, can you show me the actual POD line? <mike> you'll have to set C<< L<binmode> $filehandle >>. <mike> (which might not work anyways, I don't know if you're allowed to do links inside code) <Apocalypse> hah do you have it on search.cpan.org? <Apocalypse> also, does podchecker say it is valid? <mike> no, not yet <Apocalypse> I think linkcheck doesn't check if it's a function before checking if it's a module, bla bla <mike> and yes, podchecker says it is fine <Apocalypse> mike: great, that means it's something linkcheck should do :) <mike> \o/ <Apocalypse> mike: mind making a RT ticket? I gotta go in a few mins, I'll try to fix it soon <mike> sure thing
Hello, Thanks for reporting this! I've fixed it and released v0.006 to CPAN. -- ~Apocalypse
