Re^2: require issue.

[ant]

After posting that request for help I continued looking for a solution and came up with this.

in newform.pm I commented out the require statement

package newform;

        #require "somefile.pl";

        sub func1 {
                main::someFile1();
                print "Inside func1";

        }
1;

I left the Requires('somefile.pl') in the Main.pl, Then, when in the newform.pm and I wanted to use the someFile1 function I called main::someFile1(); This seemed to work!

Thanks all for looking into this also.

Or put a package main; at the beginning of somefile.pl; that way each other file that uses something from somefile.pl makes sure that it's loaded, but always knows what package to expect it to be loaded into.
