hi list,
I've been developing with Embperl for a few months now, and I've
already RTFM a few times, but still some issues remain obscure to me. So
here it is: Why can't I declare a lexical variable inside a [- -] block?
[- my $foo -] will make Embperl cry loud if $foo was not declared as a
global.
And if I change $foo with %foo in the previous example, it seems
that declaring [- my $foo -] when it already is a global wipes %foo's
contents clean when the [- -] block is over.
I can, of course, declare [! my $foo !] and get it to work, but
that's another issue...
