I'm trying to follow the example Larry Wall's "Programming Perl" book and it
is not working with ActiveState 5.8+.
Here is sample.pm:
package sample;
require Exporter;
our @ISA = ("Exporter");
our @EXPORT qw($convex_pl);
$convex_pl = "/cgi-shl/convex.pl";
1;
Here is test_sample_module.pl in the same directory:
use sample;
print $convex_pl;
I get a syntax error:
syntax error at sample.pm line 4, near "@EXPORT qw($convex_pl)"
Compilation failed in require at test_sample_module.pl line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at test_sample_module.pl line 1.
