I am going to try to answer this one, (I think I understand it): use strict;
package Foo; my $var1; our $var2; package Bar; $Foo::var1; # this how you call var1 from package Foo; $var2; # this how you call var2 (our makes it global across packages [and modules?]) [our == use vars qw()] __END__ so yes you must initialize any global vars. Any corrections? (I am not that great, I know I probably made a mistake). > -----Original Message----- > From: Jason Frisvold [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, May 06, 2002 11:19 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: use strict > > > I have a question about 'use strict' ...
