Hello all, I have a few questions about using packages in CGI.
First, here is my situation. I am creating a account management and billing set of scripts and want to modularize it. I have most (if not all of the code) scattered among several .pl files and not necessarily in subroutines, but can easily be put into subroutines. Let's take one example. I have a need to use a subroutine called do_billing() in more than one .pl file. Now, I would assume that all I need to do to make this a package is at the top of the file with do_billing() in it, I just put package MyPackageName; Then in any file that I want to use it, I just make sure that the path to the folder that has MyPackageName.pm in it is in my @INC, and then put use MyPackageName; at the top of any given .pl file that wants to use it. Now, from there, do I: 1) call the subroutine by MyPackageName::do_billing(); 2) call the subroutine by $billing = new MyPackageName; $bill_results = $billing->do_billing(); Or, am I way off track? Any help is appreciated. Kevin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
