Re^8: Convenient way to use 5.10 features in perldebugger?

not a matter of scope...

  DB<32> < $main::a++
  DB<33> print $main::a
5
  DB<34> print $main::a
5
  DB<35> print $main::a
5

maybe the use is restricted to real debugging (breakpoints and so on ..) and not meant for interactive shells.

Cheers Rolf

~~Your code does not demonstrate your statement.~~ Showing you can access the value of a global variable does not say anything about scope.	[reply]

I said: not a matter of scope ... Obviously the value is not incremented automatically! Cheers Rolf	[reply]

It is a matter scope. `use features` is lexically scoped, and james2vegas demonstrated each statement has its own scope. Your statement is false, and your code does not support your statement.	[reply] [d/l]

> maybe the use is restricted to real debugging (breakpoints and so on ..) and not meant for interactive shells. actually that's the case, e.g. when stepping with `n` thru a program the pre- and post-prompt commands are executed. They are NOT executed when entering any perl lines. to test try something like `perl -de'for (1..1000) {0}'` and type `n`. And BTW all these automatic commands have their own scope.
