It must depend on declare's documented behaviour.

I think you're trying to have a Socratic dialogue with me, for which I'm grateful, but I'm not clear where it's leading, meaning that my confusion is increasing. Tye has given me a workaround, but no-one has answered outright my original question "Is there anything that will report the use of undeclared fully qualified variable names?". From the help I have received, I'm pretty sure that the answer is "no". I'm used to having to use fully qualified names to avoid "Bill Gates knows best" problems, so I was not expecting the behaviour I experienced until I read the docs, and I was expecting it to be the sort of issue that had been resolved by others. If (as seems to be the case) not, I shall have different expectations in future. But as I say, I'm not certain where this is leading. If it's somewhere useful, I shall be duly grateful.

Regards,

John Davies

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.
