Ah! I've tried entereval and leaveeval and it still gives me the exact same message! :(

How should I use share_from, I don't quite understand what it does!

    share() allows you to specify which global variables in your program that you want your compartment to be able to see. However, you can only specify simple names, like '$x', i.e. names from the current namespace.

    share_from() allows you to specify more complex variable names, i.e. variables from a different namespace, e.g. package X::Y::Z.

    However, I've not succeeded in getting either to work. If you do, please post an example.
