The other annoying warning is "Name ... used only once: possible typo.
+..". For this I do this song-and-dance:
$DB::single = $DB::single = 1;
There's no warning if the variable already exists, which seems correct to me.
This does not warn.
use DB_File;
# Just some global in DB_File.
$DB_File::db_version = 42;
This does warn.
use DB_File;
$DB_File::wibble = 42;
PS The warning happens at compile time so the variable has to exist at compile time. This means:
require DB_File;
$DB_File::db_version = 42;
does warn.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
