The problem here is the require or do. After running the top-level statements, perl throws them away, which means that by the time Devel::Cover comes to match up the data it has recorded against the ops in the program it can't find the ops for those top-level statements. I had originally thought it would be quite easy to persuade perl not to throw away such statements, but it has proven beyond my abilities so far. The toolchain summit is coming up shortly and I may see if I can't impose on one of the clever folk who will be attending for a little assistance. So, my only practical suggestion, I'm afraid, is to bundle all the top-level statements into a subroutine (which, as an old C programmer I tend to call "main") and then call that subroutine as the only top-level statement. -- Paul Johnson - p...@pjcj.net http://www.pjcj.net
