NAME
Begin::Declare - compile time my and our
VERSION
version 0.04
SYNOPSIS
don't you hate writing:
my ($foo, @bar);
BEGIN {
($foo, @bar) = ('fooval', 1 .. 10);
}
when you should be able to write:
MY ($foo, @bar) = ('fooval', 1 .. 10);
just use Begin::Declare;
and you can.
EXPORT
use Begin::Declare;
is the same as:
use Begin::Declare qw (MY OUR);
you can also write:
use Begin::Declare qw (My Our);
if you prefer those names.
DECLARATIONS
MY ... = ...;
works just like the keyword my
except it lifts the assignment to compile time.
MY $x = 1; # my $x; BEGIN {$x = 1}
MY ($y, $z) = (2, 3); # my ($y, $z); BEGIN {($y, $z) = (2, 3)}
OUR ... = ...;
works just like the keyword our
except it lifts the assignment to compile time.
OUR ($x, @xs) = 1 .. 10; # our ($x, @xs); BEGIN {($x, @xs) = 1 .. 10}
