Re: To "use" expected version of .pm file

perl holds the paths to it's modules in the array @INC. A common way to manipulate that array is to add paths using use lib '/path/to/module'.
Also you might want to check the environment variable PERL5LIB.

i have written following line - use lib "lib path"; but it gives error "unable to find lib.pm" There is no lib.pm file as such. few lines of code are - use strict; use Getopt::Std;	[reply]

Sounds like you have a broken install, as lib.pm is standard since version 5.001. What does `perl -V` report?	[reply] [d/l]

lib is part of Perl, so that's very odd. But you don't have to use lib to modify `@INC`. `BEGIN { unshift @INC, '/home/user/perllib'; }` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
