array::Compare - Perl extension for comparing arrays

[ppapro]

Hi

I've tried to use array::Compare module but got an error that "Can't
locate object method "Sep" via package "Array::Compare".

Did someone have same error before ? I am just trying to run it in
same way as excample in documentation.

Show your code. This runs for me without an error:

use Array::Compare;
my $cmp = Array::Compare->new;
$cmp->Sep( '|');

That said, the Array::Compare module looks like a rather weak
attempt at array comparison. The technique is to join() the
array elements using a separator and comparing the resulting
strings. This is not applicable to arrays that contain other
things than plain scalars. Even for plain scalars you'd have
to know in advance a separator that will not appear in any of
the array elements.

There are modules on CPAN that do a better job in array comparison.
One is Test::More with its eq_array() function.
