Re: Module's name and file's name

in reply to Module's name and file's name

Could you explain me ?

The way Perl is "wired" when you have

use HR;  # using your example

it checks all the directories in @INC for a file named "HR.pm" and isn't going to look in "MyModule.pm"

Hello,

Thank you.

I know. That's why I use :

use MyModule;

That way, Perl finds the file "MyModule.pm".

But the the module's name is "HR" (as declared after "package"), not "MyModule".

I think that it messes up something.

I may be wrong.

What do you think ?

Thank you.

It messes up clarity for the hacker who inherits your code. :P
