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

I think what you want to do isn't directly supported by Exporter.  But you could of course reinvent the parts of it you need in slightly modified (and simplified) form:

package Foo; use strict; use warnings; sub import { # print "Foo::import(): @_\n"; # debug shift @_; # first arg not needed here my $dest = caller; for my $what (@_) { if ($what eq ':transforms') { no strict 'refs'; for (qw(transform_one transform_two)) { *{"${dest}::$_"} = *{"Foo::Transforms::$_"}; } } # elsif ... } } package Foo::Transforms; sub transform_one{ return "transform_one(): @_" } sub transform_two{ return "transform_two(): @_" } # ... 1;
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -l use Foo qw(:transforms); print transform_one("xyzabc"); __END__ $ ./831686.pl transform_one(): xyzabc

The difference to the other suggestions is that you wouldn't need to go exporting indirectly via the Foo namespace.  In other words, you could have routines of the same name in Foo::Bar, Foo::Transforms, etc. without risking name clashes in the intermediate Foo namespace... (of course, the mapped final names in the destination package would still have to be unique).

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.
