Re: Usuage of CPAN's Text::Delimited

You need to add the directory that contains Text/Delimited.pm to @INC. That's not /user/comp/name. I suspect it's /user/comp/name/lib, so

use lib "/user/comp/name/lib";
[download]

By the way, I prefer the saner

perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/some/dir LIB=/some/dir/lib/perl5
[download]

Nowadays, the above can be shortened to:

perl Makefile.PL INSTALL_BASE=/some/dir
[download]

Specifically, I use

perl Makefile.PL INSTALL_BASE=~
[download]

Update: Added suggestion for Makefile.PL args.

I tried both the ways,its gives me the same error. `use lib "/user/comp/name/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/Text";# This is the path +to the Text/Delimited.pm use lib "/user/comp/name/lib";` [download] `perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/some/dir LIB=/some/dir/lib/perl5` [download] In this PREFIX is the local directory path where i want to install the module(which would give me the lib and man folders) so does LIB has the path to the LIB folder of the perl? is this correct??

I believe your first 'use lib' went one directory too far. Try: `use lib "/user/comp/name/lib/site_perl/5.8.8;` [download] When you 'use Text::Delimited;', 'Text' is searched for in @INC, then Delimited.pm in 'Text'. Since there is no "/user/comp/name/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/Text/Text", Delimited.pm wasn't found.	[reply] [d/l]

`use lib "/user/comp/name/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/Text";# This is the path to the Text/Delimited.pm.` No, that's the path to `Delimited.pm`. You want the path to `Text/Delimiated.pm`. Get rid of that trailing `Text`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
