in thread sitecustomize.pl equivalent on Starwberry Perl?

I have no idea why the good folks at Strawberry began omitting that flag from version 5.14 onwards

I don't know either but my assumption is that it would have been no longer deemed necessary.

exilepanda, could you provide us with examples of the things that sitecustomize.pl needs to set (and which Strawbeery Perl is failing to set) ?
(Maybe there's a simple solution.)

Cheers,
Rob

    I am on 5.24. I will need sitecustomize for something like this : 
    
#1. export a global sharable variable
  require Exporter;
  our @ISA = qw/Exporter/;
  our @EXPORT = qw/%GV/;
  our %GV = (....);

#2. add more Lib path
  push @INC, "D:/Lib/$ENV{SERVER_NAME}"
    if ($ENV{REMOTE_ADDR}) ;

#3. define some dynamic path
  $ENV{MyData} = "D:/UsrData/Guest/";
  $ENV{MyData} = "D:/UsrData/$ENV{USER}"
    if (length $ENV{USER});

    Though I got   -f    don't do $sitelib/sitecustomize.pl at startup from perl -h. But no different with/without it.

      Why would those need to be set from sitecustomize was oppossed to mystuff.pm?

        Because this is a valid perl feature that I should able to use, and I am using it with perlrun's suggested purpose.
