Subject: Can't use string ("Config::General") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use
Using Config::General version 2.21 (on RedHat 9 - Perl 5.8.0), I was getting the following error: Can't use string ("Config::General") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Config/General.pm line 954. After a little code browsing in General.pm something occured to me... Line 173 reads: $self->{config} = $this->_hashref(); Shouldn't that actually be: $self->{config} = $self->_hashref(); Hope this helps, Mike Depot mdepot@comcast.net

Scratch that correction! Yes, it really is broken in 2.21, but I accidentally picked 1.21 from the version dropdown when I originally entering the bug. Sorry!
