warning from http modules?

evinther has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello Monks,
I'm a complete Perl newbie, so please bear with me ...
I've managed to create a simple script calling a simple website:

#--------------------------------------------
use HTTP::Request::Common qw(GET);
use LWP::UserAgent;
use strict;
my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$browser->credentials(
  'myurl:8080',
  'myrealm',
  'myuser' => 'mypsw'
);

my $response = $browser->get(  'http://myurl:8080/Organization',
[
    'Depth'  => '1'
]
);

if ($response->is_success) {
         print $response->content;
      } else {
         print "Error: " . $response->status_line . "\n";
      }
#--------------------------------------------

... and i works and i get the expected reponse. However, when running the scipt in a Windows command prompti get a number of warnings (errors?) from the HTTP libs:

Use of uninitialized value $v in substitution (s///) at C:/strawberry/
+perl/site/lib/LWP/Protocol/http.pm line 182.
Use of uninitialized value $v in concatenation (.) or string at C:/str
+awberry/perl/site/lib/Net/HTTP/Methods.pm line 154.
Use of uninitialized value $v in substitution (s///) at C:/strawberry/

+awberry/perl/site/lib/Net/HTTP/Methods.pm line 154.

Why is this, and does it matter?

using (32 bit):
LWP libwww v5.813
Perl strawberry v5.14.2.1

Thanks
Erik

Why is this, and does it matter? Its because you did not " `use warnings;` " but mistakenly used "`perl -W ...`" instead, see Re: Useless content call in void context	[reply]
