Re: Nested runtime warning disabling

warnings have lexical scope, so

no warnings;

sub test_warnings {
    GenerateWarning();
    AnotherSub();
}

sub AnotherSub {
    GenerateWarning();
}
[download]

also, may be this code be useful for you

sub test_warnings {
    local $SIG{__WARN__} = sub {};
    GenerateWarning();
    AnotherSub();
}

The problem with moving the 'no warnings' outside the test_warnings sub is that I will not get warnings when I call: `sub another_test { AnotherSub(); }` [download] The local signal handler might work if I can just catch the class of error I'm trying to supress and 'pass through' everything else as normal.
