Module::Loaded - mark modules as loaded or unloaded
use Module::Loaded;

# loaders location

eval "require 'Foo'"; # Will try to find Foo.pm in @INC
When testing applications, often you find yourself needing to provide
functionality in your test environment that would usually be provided
by external modules. Rather than munging the %INC by hand to mark
these external modules as loaded, so they are not attempted to be loaded
by perl, this module offers you a very simple way to mark modules as
loaded and/or unloaded.
Marks the package as loaded to perl. PACKAGE can be a bareword or
string.
If the module is already loaded, mark_as_loaded will carp about
this and tell you from where the PACKAGE has been loaded already.
Marks the package as unloaded to perl, which is the exact opposite
of mark_as_loaded. PACKAGE can be a bareword or string.
If the module is already unloaded, mark_as_unloaded will carp about
this and tell you the PACKAGE has been unloaded already.
is_loaded tells you if PACKAGE has been marked as loaded yet.
PACKAGE can be a bareword or string.
It returns falls if PACKAGE has not been loaded yet and the location
from where it is said to be loaded on success.
