[Maverick Ieong]

Hi, there
I have install perl 5.8.3 and module ClearCase::CtCmd, (1.3.1)
version, when I ran the following code:

use ClearCase::CtCmd;
@test = ClearCase::CtCmd("lsvob");

It got a windows dialog said the Perl Command line Interpreteris
crash ask me to click send. When I click on the detail link I found
there is a appcompat.txt generate on my Temp folder and the contains
the following:
Any idea? TIA. I am using windows XP, SP1, if I typed the command
"lsvob" on cleartool, it does shows all the vobs.

I don't know anything about the package you mention and I don't have the
faintest idea what Rational ClearCase is.

Looking at the documentation for the module shows no usage examples similar
the one you show above.

Rather, it looks like you need to invoke a sub with a four-letter name in
the ClearCase::CtCmd package rather than calling a sub named CtCmd in the
ClearCase package.

Oh, by the way, you should

use strict;
use warnings;

and definitely read the posting guidelines for this group.

Sorry, I mis-type, I was supposed to do a lsvob command, but it crash.

use ClearCase::CtCmd;
@test = ClearCase::CtCmd::exec("lsvob");

Let me try to use restrict and warning, but I doubt it will solve my problem.

Pretty much I invoke any ClearCase::CtCmd::exec command it died right away..
I have Clearcase 2002.05.00+ install.
