  • Why does my Perl script complain about "Literal @sdfsdf now requires backslash"?


    If your Perl script reports an error such as

    "Literal @sdfsdf now requires backslash at ./test.rob line 2, within string
    Execution of ./test.rob aborted due to compilation errors."

    Place a "\" before such offending @ characters.

    This is an incompatibility between Perl 5 and Perl 4.
