NAME

Thorium::Protection - Use protection when dealing with radioactive elements

VERSION

version 0.509

SYNOPSIS

use Thorium::Protection;

DESCRIPTION

This pragma[1] does:

  • Turns on strict

  • Turns on all warnings

  • Enable 5.10+ features via feature

  • Sets the method order resolution (mro) to C3. See mro for more info

  • Turns indirect method calling into a fatal action. This is done through indirect

Inspiration derived from Modern::Perl and cron.

[1] Technically not a pragma, but a lower case package name. But since we are changing pragma-y things, make it look like one

WARNINGS

  • The use should be as close to the first thing executed as possible, otherwise you may think you have strict turned on, but won't.

  • Use of this in modules isn't encouraged as you don't really gain anything other than a shaving off a few keystrokes. Modules are generally not invoked as if executables from the command line. Additionally there would be a slight (not timed/tested) overhead of doing this a large amount of times. Therefore, stick to use in non-modules.

  • Not tested under mod_perl. While I don't suspect any problems, mod_perl does weird things.

  • This doesn't enabled strict, warnings, etc for all modules/other perl associated with that script -- only to the end of the file.
