[snipped]I posted this yesterday on the Win32-database list and got no response. Can anyone help with this problem?I am trying to debug this script of mine, but I cannot seen to understand why I get the following error... "Tk::Error: Can't locate object method "new" via package "XBase" at C:/Perl/site/lib/DBD/XBase.pm line 327." This application worked under 628. I recently wiped my AS perl build 628 and installed build 804. I then used the VPM and installed these two modules, so I believe I have the current versions as there are no updates available. Anyone have any thoughts? Thanks for any assistance.
Hello Adam --
Funny you should send this today.
Unless I'm completely fogged, this may be the clue trail to follow:
The other day I thought I'd be helpful and reply to a post about Xbase.pm. I looked at the post, looked at my install, 'realized' I was a few cliks out of date and 'upgraded'... to Xbase.PM 1.07. From .... like... 0.92..??
Looking at my DBD::XBase module (note the ... um... 'b' vs. 'B'?)... it calls for this module:
" use XBase;"
See the capital bee?
My scripts now die with the same error your trace found. Ouch.
PPM Search xbase yeilds:
Packages available from http://ppm.ActiveState.com/cgibin/PPM/ppmserver.pl?urn:/
PPMServer:
DBD-XBase [0.231] Reads and writes XBase (dbf) files, includes DBI support
Xbase [1.07 ] Perl Module to Read Xbase DBF Files and Foxpro IDX indexes
So, I have to try to undo my 'upgrade' (oh, how I wish I weren't on a windoze box this week! AARgghhh!) -- and let you know what I find for the good, old XBase (with a capital Bee).
