CPANPLUS::Configure
$conf = CPANPLUS::Configure->new( options => { ... } ); $bool = $conf->can_save; $bool = $conf->save( $where ); @opts = $conf->options( $type ); $make = $conf->get_program('make'); $verbose = $conf->set_conf( verbose => 1 );
This module deals with all the configuration issues for CPANPLUS. Users can use objects created by this module to alter the behaviour of CPANPLUS.
Please refer to the CPANPLUS::Backend documentation on how to obtain a CPANPLUS::Configure object.
CPANPLUS::Backend
This method returns a new object. Normal users will never need to invoke the new method, but instead retrieve the desired object via a method call on a CPANPLUS::Backend object.
new

$INC{'CPANPLUS/Config.pm'}

Saves the configuration to the location you provided. If no file is provided, defaults to your personal config, or failing that, $INC{'CPANPLUS/Config.pm'}.
