in thread Is it possible to view a string representaion of a code ref?

Upgrading Active perl helped. i could see the ref code
now i have Active perl 5.10.0 built 1004 on MSWin32
why is it like this, what internal change in 5.10.0 could have made this possible?

    No internal change, newer version of Data::Dumper

      When I downloaded and used Active Perl 5.10.0, I think that a newer version of Data::Dumper also would have come with that. I am not sure. Because other than downloading 5.10 i did nothing new.
