Summary: Module-Versions-Report - report versions of all modules in memory
Description:
I often get email from someone reporting a bug in a module I've
written. I email back, asking what version of the module it is,
what version of Perl on what OS, and sometimes what version of
some relevent third library (like XML::Parser). They reply,
saying "Perl 5". I say "I need the exact version, as reported
by "perl -v"". They tell me. And I say "I, uh, also asked about
the version of my module and XML::Parser [or whatever]". They say
"Oh yeah. It's 2.27". "Is that my module or XML::Parser?"
"XML::Parser." "OK, and what about my module's
version?" "Ohyeah. That's 3.11." By this time, days have passed,
and what should have been a simple operation -- reporting the version
of Perl and relevent modules, has been needlessly complicated.
This module is for simplifying that task. If you add "use
Module::Versions::Report;" to a program (especially handy if your
program is one that demonstrates a bug in some module), then when the
program has finished running, you well get a report detailing the all
modules in memory, and noting the version of each (for modules that
defined a $VERSION, at least).
