Re: Use a Variable in a Separate Perl Script

in reply to Use a Variable in a Separate Perl Script

Depends on what you are doing with these two scripts. It might be time to rethink your design. Maybe what you really want to do is create a package with some functions and variables and then put the program logic into a second script.

#MyModule.pm
package MyModule;
use strict;
our $variable = 'hello!';
[download]

#MyScript.pl
use strict;
use MyModule;
print $MyModule::variable;
[download]

Also, you can use Exporter if you want to add optionality to your exports.
