in thread Can a string be a file hanle?

Stringstreams were introduced somewhere near perl 5.8. Check if you have a new enough perl. If you didn't see this in perlfunc or perlopentut, you might have a too old version.

    That is the problem. I was looking at the docs for Perl 5.6.1. I also have 5.8.0 installed on my machine, and looking at the docs for that, I do see the Stringstreams mentioned.

    Thank you ambrus.

    May the Force be with you
