problem Perl 5.8.2 and Archive::Zip ?

[Geoff Cox]

Hello

was having problem getting code below to work so upgraded to Perl
5.8.2 build 808 (using Windows 98(SE) and ActiveState version
Perl)...now get these error messages...any ideas please? The line 4
refers to the "use Archive::Zip etc ...

Cheers

Geoff

#!perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Archive::Zip qw( :ERROR_CODES :CONSTANTS );

my $dir = 'C:/temp';
my $zipfile = 'test.zip';

my $zip = Archive::Zip->new();
chdir $dir or die "Cannot chdir $dir:$!\n";
die "Error reading $zipfile:$!" unless $zip->read( "$dir/$zipfile" )
== AZ_OK;
$zip->extractTree();

It looks as if Archive::Zip is improperly installed.

It has prerequisites. Did you install those?

Use PPM or CPAN to install modules. Don't do
it by hand unless you absolutely need to.

My memory is that Archive::Zip came already installed with ActiveState
Perl 5.8.0...am I wrong on that?

looks as if it was my fault - I installed 5.8.2 before removing 5.8.0
- having started again - all is well...
