problem with variable scope

[Siva Prasad]

 

Hi Gurus,

 

I have written a package as below.

 

__________________PACKAGE

 

package parseSite;

use strict;

use warnings;

 

sub new {

                                     my $class = shift;

                                       my $Input_file=shift;

                                       bless
{InputFile=>$Input_file},$class;

                                       

                         

                                      

}

 

sub Print_file

{

            

my ($self,$Category,$course_name,$Instructor,$videos)[EMAIL PROTECTED];

print "$self\n";

print "$Category\n";

print "$course_name\n";

print "$Instructor\n";

print"$videos\n";

 }

 

 

sub GET_Values

{

my $Rows;

my $cate;

my $self=shift;

print "$self->{InputFile}\n";

(open my $FILE_H '<', $self->{InputFile}) || die"cannot open the input
file";

while(<$FILE_H>)

{

next unless /(<div.*?<\/table><br><br>)/;

my @Rows=grep(/(<div.*?<\/table><br><br>)/,<$FILE_H>);

return(@Rows);


close $FILE_H;

}

 

1;

 

__________________PACKAGE

 

 

And I am  using this package in the following script and trying to get the
some values.

 

--script

 

 

use strict;

use warnings;

use grepsite;

 

my $obj=grepsite->new("sample.txt");

my @rows=$obj-> GET_Values;

$obj-> Print_file(@rows);

 

 

--script

 

I am getting the following error,my Input file exists.

 

 

-----------------ERROR

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at grepsite.pm
line 37

.

InputFile in GET_TABLES Method is

parseSite=HASH(0x225f88)

1

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at grepsite.pm
line 26

.

 

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at grepsite.pm
line 27

.

 

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at grepsite.pm
line 28

.._-----------------------------ERROR.

 

 

I understand this is because the file $self->{InputFile} is not visible to
the method  GET_Values

 

Whats the reason that this file is not visible to the GET_Values method.

 

Can somebody let me know where I am going wrong?

 

Thanks

PP.
