Re: Overriding default libs

Are you sure threads.pm is in "/tmp/custom_module"? Or is it in a subdirectory like "/tmp/custom_module/lib"?

perl -E'sub Monkey::do{say$_,for@_,do{($monkey=[caller(0)]->[3])=~s{::}{ }and$monkey}}"Monkey say"->Monkey::do'

The exact path of the .pm file is: /tmp/custom_module/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/threads.pm	[reply]

Then you should `use lib "/tmp/custom_module/lib/perl5";`. (Perl should be able to guess the "x86_64-linux-thread-multi" bit.) `perl -E'sub Monkey::do{say$_,for@_,do{($monkey=[caller(0)]->[3])=~s{::}{ }and$monkey}}"Monkey say"->Monkey::do'`	[reply] [d/l]

That worked perfectly, Thanks. How deep(how many sub-directory levels) does perl look when given a path for `use lib /path/...` ?	[reply] [d/l]
