The following functions are not considered to be part of the public interface.
They are documented here for the benefit of future maintainers of this module.
.ie n .SS standard_typemap_locations()
.el .SS \f(CWstandard_typemap_locations()\fP

.IP \(bu 4
Purpose
.Sp
Provide a list of filepaths where \fItypemap\fR files may be found.  The
filepaths \-\- relative paths to files (not just directory paths) \-\- appear in this list in lowest-to-highest priority.
.Sp
The highest priority is to look in the current directory.
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&  \*(Aqtypemap\*(Aq
.Ve
.Sp
The second and third highest priorities are to look in the parent of the
current directory and a directory called \fIlib/ExtUtils\fR underneath the parent
directory.
.Sp
.Vb 2
\&  \*(Aq../typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../lib/ExtUtils/typemap\*(Aq,
.Ve
.Sp
The fourth through ninth highest priorities are to look in the corresponding
grandparent, great-grandparent and great-great-grandparent directories.
.Sp
.Vb 6
\&  \*(Aq../../typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../../typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../../../typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap\*(Aq,
.Ve
.Sp
The tenth and subsequent priorities are to look in directories named
\&\fIExtUtils\fR which are subdirectories of directories found in \f(CW@INC\fR \-\-
\&\fIprovided\fR a file named \fItypemap\fR actually exists in such a directory.
Example:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\&  \*(Aq/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1/ExtUtils/typemap\*(Aq,
.Ve
.Sp
However, these filepaths appear in the list returned by
\&\f(CWstandard_typemap_locations()\fR in reverse order, \fIi.e.\fR, lowest-to-highest.
.Sp
.Vb 10
\&  \*(Aq/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1/ExtUtils/typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../../../typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../../typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../lib/ExtUtils/typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../../typemap\*(Aq,
\&  \*(Aq../lib/ExtUtils/typemap\*(Aq,
