dear perlmonks,

i want to create a constant file and use it without the package name in other file. this is what i did,

/////  MyConst.pm ////////////
package MyConst;
use Readonly;

Readonly::Scalar $const1 => 1;
///////// END ////////////
[download]

//////  test.pl /////////
use MyConst;

print $const1;  
////////// END //////////
[download]

i got this error: "Global symbol "$const1" requires explicit package name at MyConst.pm line 4

it doesn't matter if i call "$const1" or "$MyConst::const1", same error as above, maybe i just don't understand Perl namespace, any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
