how to call a sub () of perl module in wft

hi

i am new to perl modules, i have created a perl module in which there is subroutine where i am using DCRparser and DCRnode to parse a dcr and retrive the values. now i use this perl module in my wft and i want to call the sub routine in my wft so the subroutine will return the parsed values.

can someone suggest the idea.

R G,

Is it in your requirements that you need to put the functionality in perl module only instead of a simple perl file? As if you use a perl file you can directly call out the same from the workflows external task and put the values retrieved in workflow variables.

However, i dont think so.. that it is possible to call a sub from a wft as workflow can call a complete file from external task.

thanks, plz read my post. as i have a ipl in which i am retriving the value from a DCR and wants to populate a drop down list in TAG_info so i am stuck here to use direct call ipl in TAG_info or turn mu ipl into a perl module and make a call to that sub in wft.

can you just correct me how to achieve this.

B_info qw(getDevConValues);

XX is the folde indside iw-perl/vendor/lib.

DB_info is the perl module inside that getDevConValues is a function.

Will help you.

Hi,

If you want you can create your own folder or else you can keep in existing folders.
