Can I append @INC before use module

2002-09-30 Thread Ramprasad A Padmanabhan 

Hello All,

I have a perl script which has

(assuming BAR.pm is in /tmp/foo/)


BEGIN {
 push @::INC , /tmp/foo;
 # use  BAR;  # Does not work
 require BAR;  # Works fine
}

Can I get to use 'use' instead of require any how

Thanx
Ram

set PERL5LIB environment varible to 
/tmp/foo then you will be able to use 'use BAR;'

Or give a look at

'perldoc lib'

José.

what sort of error message do you get? assume i have: /home/david/perl/A.pm, 
the following works for me:

BEGIN{
push @INC, '/home/david/perl';
use A;  
}

Are you sure?

Remember that . is in @INC by default.

In this case you want the use statement after the BEGIN block.

But really you want use lib.  It goes back to before anything that
anyone should reasonably be using now.

agree. there shouldn't be any real reason just to wrap the push @INC line 
inside a BEGIN{} when 'use lib' require less typing and accomplish pretty 
much the same thing(better)
