(This is a continuation of
XML::Generator problem in mod_perl, now I got rid of all the none relevant info)
I have a module Foo.pm:
package Foo;
package Foo::Bar;
use base 'Foo';
package Foo::Bar::Test;
use base 'Foo::Bar';
1;
My problem is that the above module loads ok in command line perl, but it fails in mod_perl (failed on the last "use base 'Foo::Bar'", it can't find the class Foo::Bar)
Is there a way to find out what symbols/packages have been loaded before that failed call? I tried the following:
package Foo;
package Foo::Bar;
use base 'Foo';
print "$_ => $Foo::{$_}\n" foreach keys %Foo::;
which in commandline produces:
Bar:: => *Foo::Bar::
VERSION => *Foo::VERSION
Bar:: => *Foo::Bar::
isa => *Foo::isa
VERSION => *Foo::VERSION
but in mod_perl, it produces:
Bar:: => *Foo::Bar:: <br>
VERSION => *Foo::VERSION <br>
I guess my question is whether this is the right way to see whether the "Foo::Bar" package is loaded, and why mod_perl behaves differently? (perl 5.8.0, mod_perl 1.29, apache1.3.3)
In my real situation, the package is XML::Generator. To complicate the things further, I have another "identical" installation of perl/mod_perl/apache, where this works ok. I guess I'm trying to find out how to figure out what the difference is.
