Re: A question about modules

I see. That's fine then. I didn't know that you were using the package name as a prefix to the subroutine name (DBConn::). In that case you don't need to use the Exporter. You only need it if you want to use the the subroutines as if they were in the current package (for example, db1(), and

Re: A question about modules

It is okay to do something like that. However, you should not use the package declaration on the top. If you do that, you will have to use the Exporter module to export your subroutine names to your script when you say use DBConn; Quoting Robert [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I have broken out my DB

A question about modules

I have broken out my DB connection calls into a small module. It isn't anything fancy so it is basically: package DBConn use strict; use warnings; sub { # connection info for db1 } sub { # connection info for db2 } sub { # connection info for db3 } 1; The question is do I go through the

Newbie question about modules

Hello all. I've reading some messges relating to the use of modules. How can I know what modules are installed in the server??? I have my site hosted on a Server far away from here. And it provides me Perl with the most commonly used modules. Being that I'm not an expert on Perl I don't know

Re: Newbie question about modules

How can I know what modules are installed in the server??? duh. Feeling dense. I think there should be a way, but can't think of how to get a full listing. Maybe the Config.pm? Anyway, to test for any *given* module(s), try perl -MModule::Name -e 'print Module::Name is installed\n' thus, to
