Re: CPAN module strangeness

The last statement of the module must return true for it to load. That's why you'll almost always see 1; at the end of a module. I just checked, and the file does have a 1; at the end. Something got modified or you wouldn't be getting that error.

To be clear: it's the last evaluated statement that must be true, and that's not necessarily the last statement in the file. :) -- brian d foy <brian@stonehenge.com>	[reply]

If 5.6.0 requires the "1;" at the end, the problem might well be that the POD is after that "1;"... I don't know, but if he removes the POD and it starts working... could be that...	[reply]

The last statement must evaluate to true, not necessarily the last line.	[reply]

Then again, you probably don't have 5.6.0, or do you? O:-)	[reply]
