( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

I had never really thought of it like that: maybe because we teach it in the second day of Learning Perl and I don't talk about objects and such then. This has also been around a bit longer than

Too bad this doesn't seem to work.

#!/usr/bin/perl STDOUT->print( "Hello World!\n" );

I get this error:

Can't locate object method "print" via package "IO::Handle" at io.pl l +ine 3.

If I change it slightly, though, I get the expected output. I'm surprised I didn't get the "perhaps you forgot to load ..." message that usually comes with this sort of error.

#!/usr/bin/perl use IO::Handle; STDOUT->print( "Hello World!\n" );

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
