Ternary operator assignment in Perl module

[gnubie]

I have a perl module with a ternary assignment. $domain is exported.

$domain = $^O eq "Win32"?"localhost":"www.mydomain.net";

$domain should be getting localhost, but is getting www.mydomain.com.

Are ternary assignments supposed to work in perl modules (used or required)?

sure, the ternary operator works in perl, I suspect your first condition is not written properly:

$^O eq "Win32"

have you tired:

$^O eq 'MSWin32'

you should really use single quotes around strings with no variable interpolation in perl but it will work with double-quotes:

$domain = $^O eq 'MSWin32' ? 'localhost' : '

http://www.mydomain.net';
