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

OK thanks.

I will confess that I found it weird that the problem is "possible typo" and not complaining because of unknwon variable. Eventually I paid more attention to the so-frequent error message Global symbol "$x" requires explicit package name (did you forget to declare "my $x"?) at... I realised that it says "requires explicit package name" whereas I have usually been concentrating on "did you forget to declare?" part. Combined with your message and LanX's Another effect of strict (vars) is to enforce pre declaration of unqualified variables with my or our. I get to understand it, hopefully fully.

So, evidently, one can get away with declaring variables using my/our completely if it uses fully-qualified variables. So use strict; $main::x = 42; will succeed whereas use strict; $x = 42; will fail.

thanks, bw, bliako

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.
