Re^5: Multiple uses of (?{ code }) do not appear to be called

If you don't specify the local modifier then @o is visible outside the scope. I.e.

use strict;
{ local our $a = "A"; }
{ our $b = "B"; }
print "a = $a\n";
print "b = $b\n";
__DATA__
a =
b = B

See, this is why ~~our~~perl is so confusing :-) You are bitten by the magic of `$a and $b`: `#!/usr/bin/perl -l use strict; { local our $x = "A" } { our $y = "B" } print "x=$x"; print "y=$y"; __END__ Variable "$x" is not imported at our2.pl line 7. Variable "$y" is not imported at our2.pl line 8. Global symbol "$x" requires explicit package name at our2.pl line 7. Global symbol "$y" requires explicit package name at our2.pl line 8. Execution of our2.pl aborted due to compilation errors.` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Yes, my mistake, you are completely right. Localizing $a is a common thing to do but not the way I put it.	[reply]
