in reply to Passing on "use"s

Is there a way to include those other things in my own module, so I can just use mygenericmodule and get the rest of them along with it?

Yep: see Import::Into.

Hope this helps!

    Looks nice! So, uh...

    use Import::Into;
sub import{
    feature->import::into(scalar caller,'say');
}

    That doesn't seem to do anything either. What am I missing?

      GenericModule.pm: 

      package GenericModule;

use Import::Into;

feature->import::into(1, 'say');

1;

      111155275.pl: 

      use GenericModule;

say 'hello,world';

      Script run: 

      $ perl -I. 111155275.pl
hello,world

      Hope this helps!

        Huh! So I don't need sub import, or caller? Just a 1? Well I have no idea what's going on, but it does work, so that's all fine by me. Thanks!
