Hi list, How do I know whether a given module is installed on machine or not?
Thanks and Regards, Manish
Hi Manish -
The way I check to see if a module is installed
perl -e "use ModuleName;"
(eg. perl -e "use XML::Simple:"
If you get an error, then it is not installed.
Now I use ActiveState Perl on an XP box. If you're using perl on a Unix-type machine, the double quotes may need to be
perl -e 'use XML::Simple;'
Someone here will correct me if I'm wrong about this.
HTH, Mark
