I ran "perldoc -f state" and it says in the last paragraph
" "state" is available only if the "state" feature is enabl
+ed or
if it is prefixed with "CORE::". The "state" feature is en
+abled
automatically with a "use v5.10" (or higher) declaration i
+n the
current scope.
"
So I tried putting "use 5.10;" in my program and it said:
"Perl v5.100.0 required (did you mean v5.10.0?)--this is only v5.30.0,
+ stopped at bin/zclient line 5."
so it looks liek the "state" documentation is telling me to use version 5 by 100!
The manpage for IO::Socket::INET has this in it. I didn't even try running it because it has the bareword of udp there which I'm pretty sure is illegal?
$sock = IO::Socket::INET->new(
PeerPort => 9999,
PeerAddr => inet_ntoa(INADDR_BR
+OADCAST),
Proto => udp,
LocalAddr => 'localhost',
Broadcast => 1 )
or die "Can't bind : $@\n";
