When I use xm_perl with this code from /usr/libexec/nxlog/modules/extension/perl/event1.pl:

use Log::Nxlog;
use strict;
use warnings;
use feature 'say';
use JSON;
use utf8;


sub rec2msg {
    my $msgsrcaddr = Log::Nxlog::get_field($event, 'MessageSourceAddress');
    if ( defined($msgsrcaddr) )
    {
        Log::Nxlog::set_field_string($event, 'MessageSourceCountry', "France");
    }
}

It gives me strange error:

syntax error at /usr/libexec/nxlog/modules/extension/perl/event1.pl line 16, at EOF

However , there is no code at line 16 at all. What does that mean? It happens when I use any perl code.

Hi, I have this type of input in nxlog.conf: ``` Module im_udp Host 0.0.0.0 Port 514 Exec parse_syslog(); to_json(); perl_call("process"); ``` My question is, how should I include that JSON output that I get from to_json() to my perl code? Should I write like this?: ``` my ( $event ) = @_; ``` Or it's only the output of parse_syslog_bsd() (as in example for xm_perl https://nxlog.co/documentation/nxlog-user-guide/xm_perl.html)? **More generally, my question is how to include JSON output that i get from to_json() to perl code of xm_perl module?**

I am trying to use the perl extension in Windows, but nxlog complains that it cannot find the xm_perl.dll. The complaint is correct, the file is not there. My question is why? Does the windows version not support using perl?
