Wx::Perl::FSHandler::UNC - A filesystem handler for UNC filepaths



NAME

Wx::Perl::FSHandler::UNC - A filesystem handler for UNC filepaths


SYNOPSIS

  use Wx::Perl::FSHandler::UNC;
  Wx::FileSystemHandler::AddHandler( new  Wx::Perl::FSHandler::UNC );


DESCRIPTION

Wx::Perl::FSHandler::UNC is a wxFileSystemHandler. The default file system handlers don't appear to support UNC file paths since the slashes are un-microsoft'd by default.


WX SPECIFICS

See SYNOPSIS for usage.

IO::File is used to open files given a UNC file path.

This module overrides two methods of wxFileSystemHandler: CanOpen() and OpenFile().


LIMITATIONS

This handler opens files only in read-only mode.

FindFirst() and FindNext() are not implemented. They will need to be if wildcards are being used.
