Re: Detect undefined subroutines

Don't use parens:

~/info> perl -Mstrict -c -e 'foo()'
-e syntax OK

~/info> perl -Mstrict -c -e 'foo'
Bareword "foo" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at -e line 1.
-e had compilation errors.

That doesn't always work due to indirect object syntax. Here's an example of when lack of parenthesis doesn't help, and the call instead gets interpreted as a method call rather than a function call. `$ perl -Mstrict -cwe 'my $bar; foo $bar;' -e syntax OK` [download] `ihb` Read argumentation in its context!
