in reply to How to access a hash from another file

As usual error messages tell you something. Read them instead of just acknowledging them. If you don't understand them directly, google them or find them in the documentation.

In this case probably the error message told you that the evaluation of parameter.pm resulted in a false value, which should not be (although I don't have the slightest idea why this was built into the module system). Just add as a last statement anything that results to true, usually everyone just adds

1;

as the last line of a .pm file

    Sorry for incomplete message, jethro.
    In fact I did add the last statement 1; The error message says: Global symbol "%module" requires explicit package name at ... How should I name a hash from the module?
    As to:
    I don't have the slightest idea why this was built into the module system
    I simply cannot figure out how can I get it otherwise. One way is simply to let the hash in the main file, but as already said the hash grows huge and the main file will be confusing.
    Thanks.
