Reading between the lines, common.pm doesn't have a package statement at the top?

Perl will only require a file once. So if you do things the way you're doing them, the functions defined in common.pm will end up only in the first package that loads the file.

What you want to do is make common.pm into a package in its own right, which uses Exporter or Sub::Exporter or similar to copy its functions into every package that imports it.

Sample common.pm...

package common; use Exporter 'import'; our @EXPORT = qw( do_this do_that ); sub do_this { print "doing this!\n" } sub do_that { print "doing that!\n" } 1;

Then your other modules can just:

use common;

And they automatically get do_this and do_that functions.

package Cow { use Moo; has name => (is => 'lazy', default => sub { 'Mooington' }) } say Cow->new->name

  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
