I have Eclipse (3.5-32) on my Unix machine. I have installed E-P-I-C updates for the stable 0.5.x and PadWalker (1.5).

Since I am a local user with no sudo rights I have installed PadWalker in a different folder. I have set this path as the environment variable PERL5LIB.

When I do echo $PERL5LIB or perl -le 'print foreach @INC', I can see the PadWalker module installed.

But when I try to debug using Eclipse, it says “Error: Install PadWalker”.

For the time being, to get this working I have explicitly added this PadWalker to my project using the Properties option in Eclipse.

Is there a better way to do it so that I don’t have to add Padwalker to my project every time?

Thanks.

    My first guess is that you didn’t set PERL5LIB in the process that spawns Eclipse, but in some other process. If so, what you see at the prompt using perl -le 'print foreach @INC' wouldn’t reflect what EPIC’s perl sees.

    I use a locally installed version of Perl, so I don’t need special permissions or PERL5LIB. You can use perlbrew to do this. Then just tell EPIC to use a build of Perl you installed using perlbrew and for which you installed PadWalker.
