NAME

Lexical::Typeglob - Like Symbol except without globals

SYNOPSIS

use Lexical::Typeglob 'lexglob';

my $glob = lexglob();
open $glob, 'filename';
$_ = $glob;
# etc.

DESCRIPTION

Lexical::Typeglob::lexglob creates an anonymous glob and returns a reference to it. Such a glob reference can be used as a file or directory handle. This differs from Symbol::gensym only in that the glob has no symbol table component and the glob generation is four times as fast.
