I have a script that is reporting the following -

Use of unintialized value at (eval 16) line 16.

My script doesn't use eval, but does use a lot of standard modules, and some fairly standard CPAN modules (Log::Log4perl, DBI, Pod::*, Date::Calc).

The eval number changes quite often, but not the line number, so I thnk that means the same line of the same eval'ed code is failing.

How do I track down where the eval is happening?

I have 2500 lines of my own .pm's, so there is a lot of stuff happening.

Ideally I'd like to know the module and either the line or subroutine that is complaining.

Is there anyway to do this short of breaking out the perl debugger?
