Actually I get different results. On 5.6.1 (win32) lexicals declared after INIT are not visible from INIT.
#!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; INIT { use Data::Dumper; use PadWalker qw (peek_my peek_sub); print Dumper(peek_my(0)); } my $foo = 'lee'; my $bar = "Bar"; { my @foo = (1..3); } { my @bar = (9..12); } print Dumper(peek_my(0)) __END___ $VAR1 = {}; $VAR1 = { '$foo '$bar };
my has both runtime and compile time effects, I wouldn't be suprised if they are on the same pad, but are removed from the padlist when the block is exited.
