Hi Nora,

Use has a special behavior that effectively wraps the module import in
a BEGIN block. See perldoc -f use for details.

This means that regardless of where you typed 'use Env::Sourced', the
module is being imported long before you declare $oraenv. In fact, you
should see errors about "BEGIN Failed" and "" not being exported.

You should really be using require, here, instead:

    require Env::Sourced;
    Env::Sourced->import($oraenv);

See perldoc -f require for details.

HTH,
