IO::Path::Win32 Reference

IO::Path pre-loaded with IO::Spec::Win32

What it is #

Routines #

Signatures are reproduced from the documentation, including their declared return types. A routine listed here is part of the type's published interface; whether Raku++ implements it is a separate question, answered by the examples below.

method new #

Same as IO::Path.new, except :$SPEC cannot be set and defaults to IO::Spec::Win32, regardless of the operating system the code is being run on.

method raku #

method raku(IO::Path::Win32:D: --> Str:D)

Returns Str:D.

Returns a string that, when given passed through EVAL gives the original invocant back. Note that this string includes the value of the .CWD attribute that is set to $*CWD when the path object was created, by default.

Examples, run three ways #

Every example below comes from the official documentation, together with the output that documentation asserts. Each was then executed by Rakudo and by Raku++ when this page was built. Where the three agree, one result is shown; where they do not, all three are — because which of them is wrong is exactly the information worth having.

2 no-output

class IO::Path::Win32 is IO::Path { }

IO::Path::Win32.new("foo/bar").raku.say;
# OUTPUT: IO::Path::Win32.new("foo/bar", :CWD("C:\\Users\\camelia"))
