[Bioperl-l] Bio::Graphics::Panel and ModPerl::Registry

[Chris Fields]

I don't think the __END__/__DATA__ tag is the issue.  The mod_perl  
docs section you refer to indicates the problems with using __END__/ 
__DATA__ lie in the actual Apache::Registry scripts (which are  
wrapped in a handler sub), not Perl modules.  The error you report  
doesn't match up either; I would expect a missing brackets problem,  
as stated in the docs.

What bioperl version are you using?  The line numbering in your  
reported error doesn't match up with bioperl CVS or the last  
release.  One aspect may be that this has been fixed already, so you  
could try updating bioperl to the latest release or from CVS to see  
if that fixes the problem.
