in reply to Win32::Sound constants are weird
Hi,
Those don't look to be actual constants in the perl sense(empty prototype)/use constant
$ perl -MO=Deparse -MWin32::Sound -e " print Win32::Sound::SND_NODEFAU +LT & Win32::Sound::SND_ASYNC " use Win32::Sound; print Win32::Sound::SND_NODEFAULT(&Win32::Sound::SND_ASYNC); -e syntax OK
Its one of the reasons I tend to always use () for anything called constants in the docs
$ perl -MWin32::Sound -e " print Win32::Sound::SND_NODEFAULT() & Win3 +2::Sound::SND_ASYNC() " 0
update: after looking at the source, I see they're also autoloaded using some old ExtUtils::Constant code ... and there is a warning about that in https://metacpan.org/pod/Exporter#AUTOLOADed-Constants
You might wish to report this bug to rt://Win32-Sound, all that autoload stuff for 20 constants seems like it belongs in the past :)
