Thanks for the suggestion. I tried and it didn't work for me.

Here is something that sort of works but doesn't really.

In file /tmp/Devel/COP.pm:

package DB;
sub DB {
    ($pkg, $filename, $lineno) = caller;
    $COP = 0;
    local(*DB::dbline) = "::_<$DB::filename";
    if (defined $DB::dbline[$lineno]) {
        $COP = 0 + $DB::dbline[$lineno] ;
    }

};

1;

And to test it, put in file /tmp/code-test.pl:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use B::Concise;
sub testit ()
{
    my $walker = B::Concise::compile('-basic', '-src', 'testit');
    B::Concise::set_style_standard('debug');
    B::Concise::walk_output(\my $buf);
    $walker->();            # walks and renders into $buf;
    print $buf, "\n";
    printf "COP is 0%x\n", $DB::COP;

}

testit();
[download]

Now run as perl -I/tmp d:COP /tmp/code-test.pl

The problem is that the COP address is always the first statement for the line. And what I really want is the one we are currently at which might not be the first COP of the line. Sigh.
