On my iBook running OS 9.1 and MacPerl 5.6.1b the following code...

   if($] > 5.006) {
     require Time::HiRes;
     Time::HiRes->import('gettimeofday');
   }
   ($seconds, $microseconds) = gettimeofday;
   print "Seconds = $seconds    Microseconds = $microseconds\n\n";

yields...
      Seconds = gettimeofday    Microseconds =


When I insert the full quoted path to "Hires" after "require" in the second
line of this example I get the same results.

Using the above method in a script does allow me to run it on MacPerl
5.2.0r4 without getting the error message "# Can't locate Time/HiRes.pm in
@INC".


The following code on 5.6.1b...

   if($] > 5.006) { use Time::HiRes qw(gettimeofday) }
   ($seconds, $microseconds) = gettimeofday;
   print "Seconds = $seconds    Microseconds = $microseconds\n\n";

yields...
      Seconds = 3091028777    Microseconds = 635666
