G'day 7stud,

I think you're main problem there is syntax. Compare

$ perl -Mstrict -Mwarnings -e '
use Readonly my $unprintable => 0x15;
'
Readonly version 21 required--this is only version 1.03 at /Users/ken/
+perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.14.2_WITH_THREADS/lib/5.14.2/Exporter/Hea
+vy.pm line 120.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 2.

with

$ perl -Mstrict -Mwarnings -e '
use Readonly;                        
Readonly my $unprintable => 0x15;
'

I don't have the criticism module installed; however, I don't think the problem is related to Perl::Critic. See how you go with the altered syntax.

Arghh! Thanks. After changing that, and then changing my constant to all upper case, I didn't get any errors. But when I use criticism 'brutal', I get:

Code is not tidy at CriticMy.pm line 1.

I think I should be able to sort that out.
