RE: Packages Included and not

2002-06-12 Thread Michael D. Smith 


I just tried:

useWin32::OLE;

And I got two errors, package strict wasn't found nor was package vars. A 
search of C drive found neither on my computer, so they weren't just not 
found, they aren't here.

Does this happen a lot, that packages that are included in the ActiveState 
distribution, call packages that aren't included? Is there a bundle, where 
I can get most of them at once, or is this something you have to fight one 
at the time every time you go to use a package you haven't called before?

  I've never used it but I thought use strict was fairly common. So common 
in fact I'm puzzled it's not there. Am I missing some package, or portion 
of this distribution, or some--thing, that I really should have?

I have five times more disk space than I'm using, so that's not a problem.

It happens fairly rarely - in fact I've never before heard of such a thing.

Seriously . no 'strict.pm' or 'vars.pm' ??

The best thing would probably be to re-install, though you could first try
obtaining those 2 modules from module and pasting them into perl\lib.

'stirct' and 'vars' are pragma, part of the standard distribution.
Where did you get your Perl?!

Really: you must re-install - who knows whatever other devilments
have befallen your system?
