I have to be doing something dumb to not realize what the problem is here.

I have a script with the following:

use lib '/home/username/testmodules/';
use strict;
use warnings;
use My::Util;

my x = get_file_name( ... );

[download]

The following file exists:

/home/username/testmodules/My/Util.pm

The Util.pm file basically contains the following:


package My::Util;

use strict;
use warnings;
use Exporter;
our @ISA = qw(Exporter);
our @EXPORT = qw( get_file_name );

__END__
sub get_file_name {
    ...
}

1;

[download]

When I run the script, I get:

Undefined subroutine &My::Util::get_file_name called

[download]

I've googled this problem and found many, many pages discussing this very topic, and from everything I can tell I'm doing things correctly.

It's acting like the subroutines from the Util.pm module are not being exported, but I am using other modules successfully and (I appear to be) exporting their functions the exact same way.

Please expose my ignorance. I MUST be missing something.
