Hi, I have a bunch of mason scripts that call a subroutine called 'MySubroutine'. The subroutine is in a '.pm' file. It took me about two hours but I have finally realized that my 'bug' is really just Mason not reflecting the changes that I am making to this subroutine. Occasionally my changes will go into effect but I can't figure out how or when.

The Mason scripts use the subroutine like this:

use MySubroutine;

The subroutine file is called 'MySubroutine.pm' and the first few lines of the file look like this: 

package MySubroutine;
use Exporter();
use DBI;
@ISA = qw(Exporter);

@EXPORT = qw(MySubroutine);

sub MySubroutine
{

...


}
1;

I am new to Mason and have never had a problem like this with my previous experience in perl. Any suggestions?
