Re: Which pragmas are activated with a specific perl version?

from perldoc use

use VERSION also lexically enables all features available in the requested version as defined by the feature pragma, disabling any features not in the requested version's feature bundle. See feature . Similarly, if the specified Perl version is greater than or equal to 5.12.0, strictures are enabled lexically as with use strict . Any explicit use of use strict or no strict overrides use VERSION , even if it comes before it. Later use of use VERSION will override all behavior of a previous use VERSION , possibly removing the strict and feature added by use VERSION . use VERSION does not load the feature.pm or strict.pm files.

In perldoc feature each "feature" is listed with the minimal version.

The say feature
use feature say tells the compiler to enable the Perl 6 style say function.
See say for details.
This feature is available starting with Perl 5.10.

Thanks! This answers my question. But I have a new one :-) Where did you get this version of the table? My `perldoc` and the web based documentation have a different table: `The following feature bundles are available: bundle features included --------- ----------------- :default array_base :5.10 say state switch array_base :5.12 say state switch unicode_strings array_base :5.14 say state switch unicode_strings array_base :5.16 say state switch unicode_strings unicode_eval evalbytes current_sub fc :5.18 say state switch unicode_strings unicode_eval evalbytes current_sub fc ...` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Where did you get this version of the table? I got it from the link I posted (http://perldoc.perl.org/feature.html#FEATURE-BUNDLES), which at the moment is the Perl 5.26.1 documentation. The table you showed has the same entries - I assume you have Perl 5.18 installed, which is why your table doesn't go any further. If you want to stay absolutely up-to-date, see the `%feature_bundle` hash (and the corresponding table near the bottom of the file) in lib/feature.pm in the Perl source repository (Update: or regen/feature.pl). According to that, the features for `use 5.028;` will be `qw/say state switch unicode_strings unicode_eval evalbytes current_sub fc postderef_qq bitwise/` (subject to change, of course).
