Re: can't use global @

I can't count how many times I've been hit by this. The fact that line 227 is a closing curly bracket usually almost always indicates that you have problem with parentheses/bracket matching. Check before line 202 upward, since line 202 is fine.

One way I use to find the exact line of error is by consequetively putting die "OK" line between lines or blocks of code.

I fail to see how adding `die` statements would help find a compile error. `BEGIN { die }` might help, but for this type of problem, I usually remove entire chunks from the file until `perl -c` doesn't find the error. The last thing removed contains the error. Re-add smaller bits until the error comes back if the chunk was too big.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You are right, ikegami. My second paragraph has nothing to do with the original problem. It's the technical I use for runtime error. Thanks for reminding me :-) Open source softwares? Share and enjoy. Make profit from them if you can. Yet, share and enjoy!	[reply]
