How to share subroutine

[Matthew Wu <mw...@schoolloanscorp.com>]

Hi:
   I put all my subroutine in file.pm, what I need to do such that it
can be used by my program? I don't what location I need to put it in and
what kind of configuration I need to modify. I am running Redhat 6.3.
Thanks.

If you're using mod_perl, you might find this helpful:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/general/perl_reference/perl_reference.html#use____require____do_____INC_and__INC_Explained
and
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/config.html#The_Startup_File

especially:
  use lib qw(/path/to/module);

But, as Ged allready mentioned, please RTFM! The mod_perl docs are really
great, so please DO read them.

At the risk of repetition... :)

This is a mailing List specifically for mod_perl issues.
Are you using mod_perl?

For general Perl questions, if you are using RH6.2 you can start by
reading some of the enormous quantities of Perl documentation that
should already be on your computer.  There are also a few good books,
I guess your library should be able to get them for you but you really
need to buy a few of them if you are going to work with mod_perl.  You
will see some suggestions on the mod_perl Web site, perl.apache.org.

Please don't ask general Perl questions here.  On Linux, start with

perldoc perldoc

and 

perldoc perlfaq

and for your particular question

perldoc -f use

but you really need to do that reading.
