Re: Re: Re: IYHO, what do you consider good code?

Make it an environment variable and it's even easier:

BEGIN
{
   $ENV{DEBUG} = $ENV{DEBUG} ? 0 : 1;
}
use constant DEBUG => $ENV{DEBUG};

Update: Good points both responses, though I'm slightly happier with the BEGIN block from a maintenance standpoint.

Make it a more specific environment variable and you're golden. Alzabo respects the ALZABO_DEBUG environment variable, your modules could do something similar.	[reply]

BEGIN { $ENV{DEBUG} = $ENV{DEBUG} ? 0 : 1; } use constant DEBUG => $ENV{DEBUG}; Why the BEGIN block? `use constant DEBUG => !!$ENV{DEBUG};` [download] Juerd # { site => 'juerd.nl', plp_site => 'plp.juerd.nl', do_not_use => 'spamtrap' }	[reply] [d/l]
