================================
I concurr. I installed Net::OSCAR, which automatically installed Net::OSCAR::XML. I also tried adding "use Net::OSCAR::XML"
On the pp command line, I tried
>pp -o test.exe test.pl
and also
>pp -o test.exe -M Net::OSCAR test.pl
and also
>pp -o test.exe -M Net::OSCAR -M Net::OSCAR::XML test.pl
Other than here verifying the symptoms, my help is at an end.
Anyone else? ================================ >type test.pl # File: test.pl
use Net::OSCAR qw(:standard :loglevels); use Net::OSCAR::XML; print "foo\n";
>pp -o test.exe -M Net::OSCAR -M Net::OSCAR::XML test.pl
>test.exe
