Hello, I am attempting to develop my first module. Because of
permissions/security, etc.. I cannot store the module in the standard perl
lib directories. So it is currently living in a subdir called lib in my
home directory. I use a "use lib" directive to add this directory to
@INC. this works , but when I try then to use another module that does
reside in the standard lib directories, I get a "Can't locate object method
"new" in module "X" at path-specified-in -use-lib-directive.
When I print the elements of @INC all of the standard directories are
printed as is the new one I've specified. I've also tried putting the
directory into @INC using push, but I get the same error message.
I am using Perl 5.00501 on SunOS 5.6.
Thanks!
