You really cannot leave eval{} with a last.
Oh yes, you can. But you will not only leave the eval but the loop around it, too. If there is no loop around that eval, you'll die—just like your code demonstrated.
eval { last; }; warn $@ || 'no error'; for (1) { eval { last; }; } warn $@ || 'no error';
The output of the above code is:
Can't "last" outside a loop block at x.pl line 2. no error at x.pl line 11.
By the way, even if the code in my previous post had died in the eval{}, the loop would have continued and the output would have been 123.

(++ for you anyway, because you almost tricked me into admitting that you're right :)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
