Re: Problem with accessing hash Module::CoreList::version with $]

How are you comparing? Visually? That is a bad idea ;)

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use Module::CoreList;


print qq{
$Module::CoreList::version{ $] } 
$Module::CoreList::version{ "$]" }
$Module::CoreList::version{ 5.010000 }

};
__END__
HASH(0x1a97888)
HASH(0x1a97888)
HASH(0x1a97888)

See how they all reference the same hash? They're all the same

If I run your script with 5.8.8, I get the output `HASH(0x96574a4) HASH(0x96574a4) HASH(0x9628550)` [download] For 5.10.0, I get `Use of uninitialized value within %Module::CoreList::version in concat +enation (.) or string at test.pl line 7. Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at test.pl l +ine 7. HASH(0x84c82b8)` [download] Module::CoreList is version 2.15. Update: For the 5.10.0 case, Module::CoreList's version is 2.13.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
