Subject: Apparent malfunction of Generic.pm
Experiencing apparent malfunction of Generic.pm when attempting to operate script copied from webarticle @ http://www.samag.com/documents/s=1272/sam05030007/. Code selected was from the first example on that page, it was copied directly for use in testing out the use of the module. Module Finance-QuoteHist-0.25 was successfully downloaded and installed last weekend (3/16/02) but I didn't have time to start working with it until today (3/23/02). Encounted the following display when attempting to run my perl script from the command line: Use of uninitialized value at C:/Perl/site/lib/Finance/QuoteHist/Generic.pm line 552. Use of uninitialized value at C:/Perl/site/lib/Finance/QuoteHist/Generic.pm line 553. Examination of the lines in question show two regex in a foreach loop that aren't assigned to any variables. FYI: OS is NT4 Server, ActiveState Build 522. Kudos to the author for the smoothness of the install! This has been one of the smoothest installs with NMAKE15 that I've had.
This was a problem in 0.25 -- please upgrade to 0.28 and the problem should go away. Sorry for the delay in responding, I just found out that there's a bug tracking system associated with the module now. :-( Thanks, Matt Sisk
