Re: locally installed modules not interfacing

Is it possible that HTTP::Request is not aware, at compile time, of the library search path you've created with 'use lib'?

I think you are asking the right questions. Yes....I think that this is possible. I have tried to address this concern by replacing 'HTTP::Request' in Message.pm with 'require "/absolue/path/to/HTTP/Request.pm";' but I get the same error.	[reply]

I think you're missing the point. HTTP::Request `require`'s other modules. But, HTTP::Request may not be aware of your modified `@INC` (which you create with `use lib`). How can HTTP::Request load those if it doesn't know where to find them? I don't know if this is the issue, perhaps a more knowledgeable monk can help. <-radiant.matrix-> Larry Wall is Yoda: there is no `try{}` (ok, except in Perl6; way to ruin a joke, Larry! ;P) The Code that can be seen is not the true Code "In any sufficiently large group of people, most are idiots" - Kaa's Law	[reply]

...Or maybe I don't tell the whole story :-) . In addition to the 'require full/path, I had tested this theory earlier by first setting the PERL5LIB environment variable and later by specifying the @INC values within the module themselves. Both appproaches had no effect.	[reply]
