V(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation V(3)NAMEV - Print version of the specified module(s).
SYNOPSIS
$ perl -MV=V
or if you want more than one
$ perl -MV=CPAN,V
Can now also be used as a light-weight module for getting versions of
modules without loading them:
BEGIN { $V::NO_EXIT = 1 }
require V;
printf "%s has version '%s'\n", "V", V::get_version( "V" );
DESCRIPTION
This module uses stolen code from Module::Info to find the location and
version of the specified module(s). It prints them and exit()s.
It defines "import()" and is based on an idea from Michael Schwern on
the perl5-porters list. See the discussion:
