I have a fairly large code-base that relies on Method::Signatures, and I have found that it works very well. However, it depends on Devel::Declare. The documentation for Devel::Declare states,
WARNING
Warning: Devel::Declare is a giant bag of crack originally implemented
+ by mst with the goal of upsetting the perl core developers so much b
+y its very existence that they implemented proper keyword handling in
+ the core.
As of perl5 version 14, this goal has been achieved, and modules such
+as Devel::CallParser, Function::Parameters, and Keyword::Simple provi
+de mechanisms to mangle perl syntax that don't require hallucinogenic
+ drugs to interpret the error messages they produce.
So, for new code I would recommend Function::Parameters.
Also, it looks like the author of Method::Signatures (schwern) would like for the two modules to work well together. See these github issues,
However, these issues are a few years old and I don't know how much progress has been made in addressing them.

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).
