Hi,

I created two of the bunch of modules I wanted to create. I decided to keep them in a subdirectory and access using Module::Submodule format.

Somehow it is not working for me. I get the error message "Undefined subroutine &main::method1 called at program.pl line 12.

The way I organised this is

Main program: ~/perl/program.pl 



use strict;
use warnings;
use lib '/home/my_uname/perl/lib';
use Module::Submodule1;

method1 (args);

method2 (args);

[download]
The Modules are in the directory "~/perl/lib/Module" directory and have the following

Submodule1.pm: (Submodule2.pm is similar) 

package Submodule1;

use strict;
use warnings;
use Exporter;

our ($VERSION, @ISA, @EXPORT, @EXPORT_OK, %EXPORT_TAGS);
@ISA = qw(Exporter);

@EXPORT = qw(method1 method2);

sub method1 {
  ...
}

sub method2 {
  ...
}

1;
__END__

[download]

It works if I copy the Submodule1.pm and Submodule2.pm files to ~/perl/lib/ directory.

These are not OO Modules -they are just subroutines. I am doing this just to keep all the subroutines of a particular category in a module. And of course all these Submodules are for an application (Module).

Also, I do not have root privileges to keep these modules in the /usr/bin/perl/lib (??) directory

Any help is appreciated
