To expand a little on what Abram suggested:
I think you have to put the subroutine definitions inside an eval.
Another way to do it would be to say:
if (something) {
require 'x.pm';
}
else {
require y.pm';
}
Where files x.pm and y.pm contain your two versions of the code.

Subject: [tpm] how to conditional compile
I thought I was doing the right thing, but I can't get there from here.
What I'd like to do is 'conditional compile'. ie. define this set of
subroutines if something, and a different set if something else.
For example:
BEGIN {
if (eval 'use AMODULE; 1") {
sub mysub1 { print "do something"; }
sub mysub2 { print "something else"; }
} else {
sub mysub1 { print "mysub1() is unsupported"; }
sub mysub2 { print "mysub2() is unsupported"; }
}
}
Or in otherwords... if the module isn't found, I'd like to stub out some routines.
Ideas anyone?
TIA
Fulko
