Greetings Monks,

I'm trying to use Storable under Win XP with ActiveState Perl 5.8.8. I'm getting an error which says:

D:\Frank\tdump>perl p1.pl
Cannot restore overloading on SCALAR(0x1c0d3b0) (package PDL) (even af
+ter a "require PDL;") at ..\..\lib\Storable.pm (autosplit into ..\..\
+lib\auto\Storable\_retrieve.al) line 380, at p1access.pm line 53

[download]

I've reinstalled PDL 2.4.3 but that didn't help. My user code where it fails is this function:


sub my_retrieve {
    my $File = $_[0];
    my $arrayref = retrieve("$File");

    return @{$arrayref};    
}

[download]

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance!

Regards

Frank
