Yes, you should. What's in core varies from one version of perl to another. Normally it's just things being added so modern perls have more in core than older ones, but occasionally things get removed. CGI.pm, for example, may be removed soon.

What's more, you should list every module your code relies on. If your code uses Foo::Bar and Baz::Barf, but Foo::Bar depends on Baz::Barf, you should declare a dependency on both of them, because at some point in the future Foo::Bar might stop depending on Baz::Barf and use something else instead.

In general, if your code mentions a module, you should list it as a pre-requisite.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
