Hi folks, got an odd one for you:

Why is Dprof saying my LTest::BEGIN and mail::BEGIN
are running twice ?

%Time ExclSec CumulS #Calls sec/call Csec/c  Name
 33.4   0.010  0.010      2   0.0050 0.0050  main::BEGIN    <----- ?
 0.00   0.000 -0.000      1   0.0000      -  strict::import
 0.00   0.000 -0.000      1   0.0000      -  strict::bits
 0.00   0.000 -0.000      2   0.0000      -  LTest::BEGIN   <----- ?
 0.00   0.000 -0.000      1   0.0000      -  Test2::BEGIN

I've actually got this problem but magnified in a larger
project which I'm trying to find a memory leak in.. I don't now
if this is related (BEGIN being run 4 to 17 times! in different
packages). 

Is this my code, my not understanding Dprof or something else ?


perl -v
This is perl, v5.6.0 built for i386-linux

test.pl
-------
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use LTest;

package LTest;

BEGIN {
        use Test2;
        warn "Test is beginning\n";
}

print "Here\n";

1;

package Test2;

BEGIN {
        warn "Test2 is beginning\n";
}

1;


Oh, running this code gives:

>./test.pl
Test2 is beginning
Test is beginning
Here

Making is even wierder! As 'Test is..' only
prints once.

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers

Leo
