=head1 NAME

Probe::Perl - Information about the currently running perl

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Probe::Perl;
 $p = Probe::Perl->new();
 
 # Version of this perl as a floating point number
 $ver = $p->perl_version();
 $ver = Probe::Perl->perl_version();
 
 # Convert a multi-dotted string to a floating point number
 $ver = $p->perl_version_to_float($ver);
 $ver = Probe::Perl->perl_version_to_float($ver);
 
 # Check if the given perl is the same as the one currently running
 $bool = $p->perl_is_same($perl_path);
 $bool = Probe::Perl->perl_is_same($perl_path);
 
 # Find a path to the currently-running perl
 $path = $p->find_perl_interpreter();
 $path = Probe::Perl->find_perl_interpreter();
 
 # Get @INC before run-time additions
 @paths = $p->perl_inc();
 @paths = Probe::Perl->perl_inc();
 
 # Get the general type of operating system
 $type = $p->os_type();
 $type = Probe::Perl->os_type();
 
 # Access Config.pm values
 $val = $p->config('foo');
 $val = Probe::Perl->config('foo');
 $p->config('foo' => 'bar');  # Set locally
 $p->config_revert('foo');  # Revert

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides methods for obtaining information about the
currently running perl interpreter.  It originally began life as code
in the C<Module::Build> project, but has been externalized here for
general use.

=head1 METHODS

=over 4

=item new()

Creates a new Probe::Perl object and returns it.  Most methods in
the Probe::Perl packages are available as class methods, so you
don't always need to create a new object.  But if you want to create a
mutable view of the C<Config.pm> data, it's necessary to create an
object to store the values in.

=item config( $key [, $value] )

Returns the C<Config.pm> value associated with C<$key>.  If C<$value>
is also specified, then the value is set to C<$value> for this view of
the data.  In this case, C<config()> must be called as an object
method, not a class method.

=item config_revert( $key )

Removes any user-assigned value in this view of the C<Config.pm> data.

=item find_perl_interpreter( )

Returns the absolute path of this perl interpreter.  This is actually
sort of a tricky thing to discover sometimes - in these cases we use
C<perl_is_same()> to verify.

=item perl_version( )

Returns the version of this perl interpreter as a perl-styled version
number using C<perl_version_to_float()>.  Uses C<$^V> if your perl is
recent enough, otherwise uses C<$]>.

=item perl_version_to_float( $version )

Formats C<$version> as a perl-styled version number like C<5.008001>.

=item perl_is_same( $perl )

Given the name of a perl interpreter, this method determines if it has
the same configuration as the one represented by the current perl
instance.  Usually this means it's exactly the same

=item perl_inc( )

Returns a list of directories in this perl's C<@INC> path, I<before>
any entries from C<use lib>, C<$ENV{PERL5LIB}>, or C<-I> switches are
added.

=item os_type( [$osname] )

Returns a generic OS type (e.g. "Unix", "Windows", "MacOS") for the
given OS name. If no OS name is given it uses the value in $^O, which
is the same as $Config{osname}.
