Hi Toby,

Amazing finding !

${^MYDEBUG} = 1;

This does solves that problem. So you are the first to provide a real solution. Kind of undocumented feature. Thank you very much.

But the problem is that I often forget to put :: after $ and correcting this error ( as in "$debug -> $::debug ") takes my time and if you have many modules and change debugging statements in them often it became pretty annoying because for me this error is persistent.

This is even more complex idiom and I unfortunately I am very bad with typing them. I still often type variables without sigil, especially if the same day I used C.

But in any case I did learn something new and interesting about Perl today. Thanks again.

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.
