Re^5: RSS Parsing not working on new machine

I was sure I had a reference that said it was being deprecated (IIRC in 5.40), but now I can't find anything that looks similar so I have no idea if I just made it up. Sorry.

It's the very opposite. 5.40 is when it became "a stable language feature". From perl5400delta, `try`/`catch` feature is no longer experimental Prior to this release, the `try`/`catch` feature for handling errors was considered experimental. Introduced in Perl version 5.34.0, this is now considered a stable language feature and its use no longer prints a warning. It still must be enabled with the 'try' feature. See "Try Catch Exception Handling" in perlsyn.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
