Ive been experimenting with adding a questionable feature to Data::Dumper::EasyOO-0.03_01 (on CPAN), ie: passing a $var to import(), which initializes it with an object thats then available for the (lazy, and arent we all) user:
my ($mdd, %style); BEGIN { %style = (indent=>1, autoprint=>1) }; # 1st 2 work, last doesnt ! use Data::Dumper::EasyOO ( %style, init => \$mdd); use Data::Dumper::EasyOO ( %style, init => \our $odd); use Data::Dumper::EasyOO ( %style, init => \my $ndd); $mdd->(mdd => \%INC); $odd->(odd => \%INC); $ndd->(ndd => \%INC);
I expected 3rd way to work just like the others, by creating a my variable in main. In support of my expectation, the following works, almost analogously, except for the use-time action.
perl -e 'sub f{my$p=shift;$$p++;} f(\(my ($g)="val")); print "g:$g\n" +'
thanks in advance for your insights, and I take bug reports ;-)
