i've recently been converted to using strict (some may recall
the discussion : )
i like it a lot, i think it does really help my programming
i think that this time i actually HAVE stumbled across a place
where strict cannot be used...
use strict
our ($opt_h);
getopts('h');
if ($opt_h) { print 'do something'; }
all LOOKS well, it compiles and runs fine when using a
command line perl myScript.pl but unfortunately,
i've got to compile this little proggie so it is a
standalone EXE on windows machines...
it seems that there may be a problem with using
'strict', 'our', and 'perl2exe' together
my solution ... use strict until compile time, and turn it off
james bond style (a meer .007 seconds before i compile)
i think that's pretty reasonable, but my question is this:
if the program compiles and runs fine when USING strict,
and i turn it off, could the program stop working properly?
as i understand it, strict is a style guide and grammar
cop. i would be surprised to discover that strict changes
the way in which memory is allocated and protected from other
pieces of memory ... but just have to ask :)

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).
