References some example code that does not run for two reasons.
1. A syntax error in the data structure.
2. Use of an initialized object $object. (with a strange error message)
I was able to get everything happy with :
bash-3.2$ diff synopsis_example synopsis_example.fixed.2
2a3
Show quoted text
> use JSON::Path;
31,32c32,33
< { "color": "red",
< "price": 19.95,
---
Show quoted text> { "color"=> "red",
> "price"=> 19.95,
48c49
< jpath_map { uc $_ } $object, '$.store.book[*].author';
---
Show quoted text> jpath_map { uc $_ } $data, '$.store.book[*].author';
bash-3.2$
Example : failure log
bash-3.2$ perl --version
