in thread Whats the status of DBIx::Class

Anyway I couldn't find out since when this feature was deprecated, seems to be enforced without grace period.

I see the deprecation warning in 5.40.0 and 5.38.0 (but not 5.36.0 or earlier): 
D:\>perl -le "print $]; $don't = 1;"
Old package separator "'" deprecated at -e line 1.
5.038000

[download]
And, with warnings enabled: 
D:\>perl -wle "print $]; $don't = 1;"
Old package separator "'" deprecated at -e line 1.
Name "don::t" used only once: possible typo at -e line 1.
5.038000

    Thanks, I have a box with 5.38 and
    • use v5.36 was still emitting the warnings which couldn't be silenced
    • use v5.34 made it work like before
    so it seems the maintainers just need to introduce a use v5.34 or earlier (tho I couldn't test with v5.40)

    what I tried:

    $ cat t_package_sep.pl
BEGIN { warn "Using Perl Version ", $], "\n";}
use v5.34;
no warnings 'deprecated::apostrophe_as_package_separator';
use diagnostics;


use lib '.';
$don't = 1;
use deprecated'apostrophe;


$ cat deprecated/apostrophe.pm
warn "Module ". __FILE__ ." loaded";
1;


$ perl t_package_sep.pl
Using Perl Version 5.038002
Module deprecated/apostrophe.pm loaded at deprecated/apostrophe.pm lin
+e 1.

    UPDATE
    hmm, strangely this is still producing the silenced warnings. Not sure if it's a bug or a documented feature regarding the deprecated:: category. 

    use v5.34;
use warnings;
no warnings 'deprecated::apostrophe_as_package_separator';
