$CFG
Does anyone have any idea why this code is returning nothing?

my $extension = $CFG->{"build_extension"};

Also tried;

my $extension = $CFG->{build_extension};
and
my $extension = $CFG->{'build_extension'};

Its just giving a blank variable. Works with the paths etc...but just not this Unsure Do I need to access it via another method?

Cheers

Dump the hashref to see what it contains.

Weird...none of the $CFG, $IN or $DB variables are available. I tried to do a Data::Dumper on them, as well as calling values I know exist, and worked fine earlier on. The way I have my code structured is;

Code:
sub here {

foreach (@array) {
&another_one($_);
}

}

sub another_one {
# do stuff here
}

Is there any reason why this would stop the variables becoming avbailable Unsure

Cheers

I don't see reasons. Your code seems fine.

Just a few ideas:
1) Are these available in your code?:
use Links qw/$CFG $IN $DB $USER/;
@Plugins::Pluginname::ISA = qw(GT::Base);

2) Are you sure you use global $CFG is no not local? E.g. you never used "my $CFG".

3) Did you try to turn on debugging?

4) Try to print out $CFG at several parts of your plugin. Try to print at the plugin start first. Do active debugging this way.
Also try to print $CFG in other plugin, too, to check if the core code is intact.

No more ideas at the moment.
Probably we may need to see more code.
