Exposing Apache::ASP::SearchDirs functionality is the answer. In 2.31,
this will be as:
my $file_path = $Server->MapInclude($include);
It seems a similar idea to MapPath, but MapPath deals with more how
the web server would translate a URI, while MapInclude() is about how
Apache::ASP would translate an include execution.
Let me know if you would like an early release of the module. I'll
probably release it soon anyway. BTW, to deal with this problem
before, I have explicitly trapped errors like:
eval { $Response->Include() }
if($@) { # deal with missing include }
since a missing include will trigger a die().
