Re^3: Can't Reference a Sub by Variable when using Strict

Creating symbolic references to subroutines is quite valid under strictures e.g

use strict;

sub foo {
  print "It's all good.";
}

my $subref = \&{ "foo" };
&$subref;

__output__

It's all good.

That's a bug not a feature :-) `C:\>perl -MO=Deparse test.pl sub foo { print q[It's all good.]; } my $subref = \&{'foo';}; &$subref;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
