Re^3: Core Modules

I think you should check using the version of Perl that's running.

if ( exists $Module::CoreList::version{$]}{'Foo::Bar'} ) {
    print "Foo::Bar is core in this version of Perl.\n";
}

This way you don't false positive on something that's core in a version other than the one you have. I haven't used Module::CoreList, however, so I'm not sure.

You pointed me at the right thing and I am kinda brain dead today and was doing some stupid things. The way I understand it, it tells you specifically when a module is added in each version, the first_release() tells you what version that module was added into core. As long as I get a number back from it, I know it is a part of Core. That was huge help and I did not know about that module, so overall it has been a good day! :)	[reply]
