portability: catfile vs ../..

2001-06-29 Thread Stas Bekman
I'm looking at the Build.pm in 2.0 and I see that it uses both File::Spec::catfile() and unix '/' hardcoded paths. I know that catfile() is used to make the code portable, but I want to understand when this should be used an not '/'. Thanks!
