( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Greetings,

Today I started using perl 5.18 with my code and I was not pleased to see lots of warning saying that when is experimental.

While perldelta teaches how to disable the warnings, it also says:

Simply suppress the warning if you want to use the feature, but know that in doing so you are taking the risk of using an experimental feature which may change or be removed in a future Perl version

I wondering if it is not a better idea to go back using labeled blocks to simulate the functionality of given and when. I also saw that smart matching has problem on it's own and I already had some issues with it.

What do you recommend for this king of situation for long term code?

Thanks,

Alceu Rodrigues de Freitas Junior

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.
