perlmagick newbies beware

Posted: 2007-11-29T11:06:48-07:00

in ubuntu gutsy gibbon, and also in ubuntu 6.10, i've made the mistake of not creating an Image::Magick object before trying to read in a file.

the correct way is, to first make the object using new(), then do the call to Read() using that object.

Code: Select all

my $image = Image::Magick->new();
$image->Read($file);
the very, very wrong way is to try this:

Code: Select all

my $image = Image::Magick->Read($file);
it makes a huge nasty error (below), and googling this error gets you nowhere. so i'm posting it here so maybe the next googler will find it. i think it would be a useful improvement in perlmagick for it to catch this error for you and die with a helpful message instead of dumping core.

scary error follows!

Code: Select all
