I'm trying to write a perl module, and cannot export my subs. I'm on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, using Perl v5.14.2 Here's my module, /home/steve/scripts/lib/STEVE/Test.pm:
package Test; use strict; use warnings; use Exporter; use vars qw($VERSION @ISA @EXPORT @EXPORT_OK); $VERSION = 1.00; @ISA = qw(Exporter); @EXPORT = (); @EXPORT_OK = qw(test); sub test { print "This is only a drill\n"; } 1;
(yes, now the world knows my file structure). I constructed it according to this post:

http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=102347

My driver program, /home/steve/scripts/test.pl, looks like:
#!/usr/bin/perl use lib '/home/steve/scripts/lib'; use STEVE::Test qw(&test); test();
As stated, this fails, with error: Undefined subroutine &main::test called at ./test.pl line 6. Why? I used to write modules all the time (on the same OS, but maybe not the same perl version). Did perl change its export/import/package method? Thanks
