perldoc -f my my EXPR my TYPE EXPR my EXPR : ATTRS my TYPE EXPR : ATTRS A "my" declares the listed variables to be local (lexically) t +o the enclosing block, file, or "eval". If more than one value i +s listed, the list must be placed in parentheses. The exact semantics and interface of TYPE and ATTRS are still evolving. TYPE is currently bound to the use of "fields" pragm +a, and attributes are handled using the "attributes" pragma, or starting from Perl 5.8.0 also via the "Attribute::Handlers" module. See "Private Variables via my()" in perlsub for detail +s, and fields, attributes, and Attribute::Handlers.
