Hello Satish,

I faced the same problem several days ago. I asked colleague of mine and he confirmed that he has fased this problem too. I don't know is it bug or feature, but even if you're using "=" as parameter qualifier and you don't supply this parameter to you script, corresponding variable gets value "" and programm run further! BTW, what version of perl you're using? We're using here 5.005_03, and I think that maybe in latest perl version Getopt::Long works correctly.
