pushed '/usr/share/perl/5.8.7' onto @INC. the error is:

Can't locate Tie/StdScalar.pm in @INC

in '/usr/share/perl/5.8.7/Tie/Scalar.pm' there is 'package
Tie::StdScalar' etc.

Is the module Tie::Scalar? See `perldoc Tie::Scalar` for details.



i solved the above-described problem by putting StdScalar in its own .pm file,
but now i get (working from the debugger):

DB<2> use Tie::StdScalar

DB<2> tie $f,'StdScalar'
Can't locate object method "TIESCALAR" via package "StdScalar" at
(eval 11)[/usr/share/perl/5.8/perl5db.pl:628] line 2.


but in StdScalar.pm there is:

package Tie::StdScalar;
@ISA = (Tie::Scalar);

sub TIESCALAR {
my $class = shift;
my $instance = shift || undef;
return bless \$instance => $class;
}
