I am writing a small module for my work & trying out OO Perl at the same time. I think I have everything correct but when I run a script accessing it I get the following:
Can't locate object method "new" via package "Config" at /acies/home/ebodine/test2.pl line 20.
Here are the relevant lines in the script:
use Config;
my $file = "/somedir/somefile";
my $file_obj = Config->new($file);
Here is the module:
package Config;
use strict;
$VERSION = 0.1;
$DEBUG = 1; # 1 Prints out debug information.
sub new
{
my ($class) = @_;
bless {
_file => $_[1],
}, $class;
}
I don't see what I am doing wrong...any monks see what I am missing?? Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated.
