Re: Use + versus Require

See use. use Some::Module LIST is essentially

BEGIN { 
    require Some::Module;
    Some::Module->import( LIST );
}

So just adapt that to your needs. A likely literal translation gives me:

require SOAP::Lite;
SOAP::Lite->import( 
                +autodispatch =>
                'proxy' =>       http://soap.soapserver.com', # there 
+is a typo on this line, in the original post
                on_fault  => \&handle_error;
)
[download]

The "fat comma operator", => simply stringifies its left-hand operand. So this is equivalent to

require SOAP::Lite;
SOAP::Lite->import( 
                '+autodispatch' =>
                'proxy' =>       http://soap.soapserver.com', # there 
+is a typo on this line, in the original post
                'on_fault'  => \&handle_error;

No, the + is just the unary + operator applied to the bareword which is just the bareword itself; it doesn't make it part of the argument. `$ perl -le 'BEGIN{package Foo; sub import { print join( "\n", @_ ) }; +$INC{"Foo.pm"}=1; } use Foo +bar => "baz", -quux => "jinkies";' Foo bar baz -quux jinkies` [download] I think SOAP::Lite uses the + as a visual cue to distinguish it from options which are prefixed by a - to indicate they're disabled (and the fat comma special cases - so that `-foo => "blah"` does give `"-foo", "blah"` even though "-" isn't a `\w` character).

$ perl -le 'BEGIN{package Foo; sub import { print join( "\n", @_ ) }; 
+$INC{"Foo.pm"}=1; } use Foo +bar => "baz", -quux => "jinkies";'
Foo
bar
baz
-quux
jinkies
