SUBROUTINES

29       The following functions are not considered to be part of the public
30       interface.  They are documented here for the benefit of future
31       maintainers of this module.
32
33   "standard_typemap_locations()"
34       ·   Purpose
35
36           Provide a list of filepaths where typemap files may be found.  The
37           filepaths -- relative paths to files (not just directory paths) --
38           appear in this list in lowest-to-highest priority.
39
40           The highest priority is to look in the current directory.
41
42             'typemap'
43
44           The second and third highest priorities are to look in the parent
45           of the current directory and a directory called lib/ExtUtils
46           underneath the parent directory.
47
48             '../typemap',
49             '../lib/ExtUtils/typemap',
50
51           The fourth through ninth highest priorities are to look in the
52           corresponding grandparent, great-grandparent and great-great-
53           grandparent directories.
54
55             '../../typemap',
56             '../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap',
57             '../../../typemap',
58             '../../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap',
59             '../../../../typemap',
60             '../../../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap',
61
62           The tenth and subsequent priorities are to look in directories
63           named ExtUtils which are subdirectories of directories found in
64           @INC -- provided a file named typemap actually exists in such a
65           directory.  Example:
66
67             '/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1/ExtUtils/typemap',
68
69           However, these filepaths appear in the list returned by
70           "standard_typemap_locations()" in reverse order, i.e., lowest-to-
71           highest.
72
73             '/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1/ExtUtils/typemap',
74             '../../../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap',
75             '../../../../typemap',
76             '../../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap',
77             '../../../typemap',
78             '../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap',
79             '../../typemap',
80             '../lib/ExtUtils/typemap',
81             '../typemap',
82             'typemap'
