Hi all, and hi Gerald,
I'm narrowing the problem down, from the previous post where I had
mistakenly thought Execute would return true upon success.
What I've found so far is :
- The server is running Embperl as CGI
- When it finds a statement looking like
HTML::Embperl::DOC::someSub;
it will die, saying that barewords are not allowed when the
strict pragma is in use.
- HTML::Embperl::DOC::someSub has been declared in a file thats
been Executed with the import flag set to 1.
- If I change the line to
HTML::Embperl::DOC::someSub();
my problems are gone. That's what I'm doing now.
- It's not consistent across files, that is, some files have all
their calls to subroutines without parenthesis and not a warning is
issued.
- On the other hand, once a file dies, it dies quoting every
'wrong' call to subroutines.
Maybe it's clear to you. It certainly looks vodoo to me :)
Maybe the difference has to do with compiled and not-yet-compiled
code. I don't really know.
Ah, by the way, 'use strict' is only explicitly called inside the [!
!] constructs where the subs are declared. And [$var $] is in use in
each and every file.
Is all this sensible?
