First, the functions, SetAttributes and GetAttributes, must be specifically requested:
use Win32::File qw(:DEFAULT SetAttributes GetAttributes);

That would not actually make any difference here. The only difference it would make is allowing this syntax:

GetAttributes()

Instead of this:

Win32::File::GetAttributes()

...which is not being attempted here. That specification just tells import() what to bring into the current package namespace from the module.

The issue in play here is the 'eval', which gives the compiler no idea what will be available at runtime. So it fails at compile time. In your 'fixed' example, it's working not because of your added imports, its working because you removed the 'eval'.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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.
