Hi, Still I have some problem.
runtest.pl ---------- #!/opt/perl/bin/perl -w use strict; require "test_init.pl" or die("Can't require test_init.pl"); require "configure.pl" or die("Can't require configure.pl"); require "common_functions.pl" or die("Can't require common_functions.pl"); Here, common_functions.pl file uses the variables which are in test_init.pl file. But common_functions.pl couldn't access the variables which are in test_init.pl file. $ perl runtest.pl Global symbol "$PROD_TESTS" requires explicit package name at common_functions.pl line 11. Global symbol "$LOG_DIR" requires explicit package name at common_functions.pl line 14. Global symbol "$TOTAL_TEST_LOG" requires explicit package name at common_functions.pl line 19. Global symbol "$TOTAL_TEST_LOG" requires explicit package name at common_functions.pl line 19. Global symbol "$PROD_TESTS" requires explicit package name at common_functions.pl line 24. Compilation failed in require at runtest.pl line 6. $ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charles K.
