I would like to declare a constant in a module (.pm), so other perl

I tried
use constant BASEDIR ='path_name';
in the module.
But when I use this module, perl complains that BASEDIR is a bareword.
How do you make this work?
Really appreciate your comment.
You should post a complete, minimal program that demonstrates the
problem. Otherwise, we are just guessing at the cause.
One guess: are you referring to BASEDIR in the program that uses the
module or the actual name <module>::BASEDIR?
This group is defunct. Try comp.lang.perl.misc in the future.
