Subject:

Cannot use Math::BigInt::CalcEmu directly

# perl -e 'use Math::BigInt::CalcEmu;' Can't locate object method "config" via package "Math::BigInt" at /usr/share/perl5/Math/BigInt/CalcEmu.pm line 18. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/perl5/Math/BigInt/CalcEmu.pm line 21. Compilation failed in require at -e line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1. This is because Math::BigInt::CalcEmu does not use Math::BigInt before executing $CALC_EMU = Math::BigInt->config()->{'lib'}; in the BEGIN section. If direct use is not intended it should be declared in the documentation. Current synopsis is plain: SYNOPSIS use Math::BigInt::CalcEmu;

The module Math::BigInt::CalcEmu is not meant to be used directly. It is loaded by Math::BigInt when necessary. The contents of this module will soon be moved into Math::BigInt::Lib. When that is done the module Math::BigInt::CalcEmu will be redundant and will be removed.
