 Description: File::ShareDir with PAR support
- File::ShareDir with PAR support
+ File::ShareDir::PAR provides the same functionality as File::ShareDir
+ but tries hard to be compatible with PAR packaged applications.
  .
- This description was automagically extracted from the module by dh-make-perl.
+ The problem is, that the concept of having a distribution or module
+ specific share directory becomes a little hazy when you're loading
+ everything from a single file. PAR uses an @INC hook to intercept any
+ attempt to load a module. File::ShareDir uses the directory structure
+ that is typically found in the directories that are listed in @INC for
+ storing the shared data. In a PAR enviroment, this is not necessarily
+ possible.
+ .
+ When you call one of the functions that this module provides, it will
+ take care to search in any of the currently loaded .par files before
+ scanning @INC. This is the same order of preference you get for loading
+ modules when PAR is in effect. If the path or file you are asking for
+ is found in one of the loaded .par files, that containing .par file is
+ extracted and the path returned will point to the extracted copy on disk.
+ .
+ Depending on how you're using PAR, the files that are extracted this
+ way are either cleaned up after program termination or cached for
+ further executions. Either way, you're safe if you use the shared data
+ as read-only data. If you write to it, your changes may be lost after
+ the program ends.
