Hi All I have a perl module I want to use in a perl script and make available by the ' use mymodule.pm' call.
I'll presume you meant
use mymodule; # don't need the *.pm
Plus I would like to place it the same directory as the main script. The main script runs fine until I make a call to the module. I then then I get a ' subroutine not defined ' What am I doing wrong. Thanks for your help
Have you read the section
perldoc Exporter
package YourModule;
require Exporter;
@ISA = qw(Exporter);
@EXPORT_OK = qw(munge frobnicate); # symbols to export on request
since as dan is pointing at it, one either needs to list out the specific functions that one wishes to import:
use mymodule qw/
the_first_function
the_second_function
the_third_function
/;or one should call them out expressly
my $got_back = mymodule::the_first_function(@arglist);
but this of course assumes that they were Exported to begin with in the perl module.
