Source.cshrc file inside Perl

Shell Programming and Scripting
1

I have a file which is basically .cshrc
It contains lines such as:

setenv <variable> <value>...
                                      set path=(<dir> <dir>)
                                      source <another_file>
                                      

                                  I can run this file using source from the shell.
                                  But I cannot do it from perl..  except from creating another file which is perl-executable using do, or  parsing the file and using ENV\{\}, which I don't want to do.

I just simple want to source this .cshrc in my Perl script
I tried so many methods ... Nothing is working

Thanks

I'm afraid you need to call your Perl script from a shell script which sources your environmental changes or else mangle the %ENV hash.
