4# Checks for the existence of Perl modules DBI and DBD::MariaDB as seen from the
5# perl installation used by "external" executable perl scripts, i.e. scripts
6# that are executed as standalone scripts interpreted by the perl installation
7# specified by the "shebang" line in the top of these scripts.
8#
9# If either module is not found, the test will be skipped.
10#
11# For use in tests that call perl scripts that require these modules.
12#
13# This file is intended to work on Unix. Windows may need different treatment.
14# Reasoning:
15#   - "shebangs" are not relevant on Windows, but need to be handled here.
16#   - Perl scripts cannot be made executable on Windows, interpreter must be
17#     specified.
18#
19# Note that if there are multiple perl installations and not all have the
20# required modules, this check may fail even if the perl in path does have
21# the modules available. This may happen if the perl specified by the script's
22# shebang (e.g. #!/usr/bin/perl) does not have these modules, and script is
23# called without specifying the perl interpreter. However, this will be
24# a correct result in cases where a test calls a script with a similar shebang.

30# We jump through some hoops since there is no direct way to check if an
31# external command went OK or not from a mysql-test file:
32#
33#   - In theory, we could do as simple as "exec perl -MDBI -MDBD::MariaDB -e 1",
34#     however we cannot check the result (exit code) from within a test script.
35#     Also, this may not yield the same result as other uses of perl due to the
36#     shebang issue mentioned above.
37#   - Instead we use a separate helper perl script that checks for the modules.
38#   - If the modules are found, the perl script leaves a file which sets a
39#     variable that can be read by this file.
40#     If the modules are not found, the perl script does not set this variable,
41#     but leaves an empty file instead.
42#
43# This is done because there is apparently no direct way to transfer
44# information from perl to the test script itself.

50# We do not use embedded perl in this script because that would not have yielded
51# correct results for a situation where an external Perl script is called like
52# "scriptname" instead of "perl scriptname" and the shebang in the script points
53# to a specific perl that may be different than the perl in PATH.
54#
55# Instead, we call a separate helper script which checks for the modules in its
56# own environment. We call it without "perl" in front.
