Goodly monks,

I am having a problem when I connect eclipse/EPIC ide to my CVS repo. Various modules now have version conflicts and will not run in the IDE, here is a typical example when a locally developed module in CVS tries to 'use Time::HiRes (usleep)': 

Time::HiRes object version 1.86 does not match $Time::HiRes::XS_VERSIO
+N 1.66 at C:/Perl/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 253.
Compilation failed in require at C:/.../lib/Local/Event.pm line 20.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/.../lib/Local/Event.pm line 20
+.

[download]

my c:\perl\lib\Time\HiRes VERSION is '1.66'

I guess this is a conflict between a version in my repo and the local PC version though running ppm upgrade localy I find there is no more up to date version of Time::HiRes in active state. The CVS does have Linux and Unix modules too, all this has to run on AIX, Linux and *doze. Is it possible Autoloader is trying to pull in one of these ?

Why would autoloader not get a module from the same installed tree as the .pm comes from ? Is there an way to see where Autoloader is getting the conflicting version from ? I am stumped

Thanks in advance,
R.
