Is there an include for perl? Bill H 06-16-2008

 I am looking for an include for perl. I know about require, use etc
and use them, but I have a program that is getting large and would
like to put some of the code into their own files and just use a
include "filename" where the code I pulled belongs and have nothing
else done to that included code other than it being inserted when the
program is run. As an example:


main program:

line 1
line 2
include "other program"
line 3
line 4

other program
line 2a
line 2b
line 2c

when perl runs main program it sees it as

line 1
line 2
line 2a
line 2b
line 2c
line 3
line 4

I know you can do this with require but I have issues with variables
being set in one require not being available in another

Are you looking for do()?

Hi Jurgen. I looked at do() and it didn't seem to fit what I want.

Well, I suppose you can always run your Perl program through cpp first
and feed the result to perl.
