Re^5: Avoiding INIT

The idea it to postpone processing the command line until the last moment.

That doesn't answer my question at all.

Under the fair assumption that yours is the only module that has a CHECK block, the INIT block will be called immediately after the CHECK block. Thus, if the content of the INIT block were to be moved into the CHECK block, it would be executed at exactly the same time as before.

Ah! Sorry 'bout that. I can't make that assumption. The module in question is Getopt::Auto. Who knows what context it was invokde in?	[reply]

I have no idea. That being the case, it seems reasonable to avoid it, no?	[reply]
