And once again I am wondering if you guys can point me at my flaws.

I am playing about with a very small piece of Perl code that should load a C Library and echo it. This is my code:

use warnings;
use strict;
use C::DynaLib;
my $c_libary = new C::DynaLib("./modules/test.o")||die "Failed to load
+: $!\n";
my $c_subroutine = $c_libary->DeclareSub("test", "p");
print &{$c_subroutine}
[download]

And this should be just fine as its so clear to the example the page shows.

The test.o's sourcecode:

char* test()
{
   return "WORKS!";
}
[download]

The error that Perl flings back at me is: Can't call method "DeclareSub" without a package or object reference when I remove the die. SO I know it can't load the Library. I already gave it 777 to 'just-be-sure'.
So, any advice/tips/fixes/documents?
Thanks!
