( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
there are few if any projects that are not improved by a global s/our/my/.

You can easily support use My::Configuration qw( %prod );. Although the basic Exporter.pm doesn't support exporting of lexicals, it is dead easy to support that yourself and I strongly suspect that at least one of the "better exporter than Exporter" modules on CPAN is already written to allow you to export lexicals as well.

But just to prove how easy it is, if you only have one variable to potentially export, I roll my own exporter as you watch:

package My::Config; use strict; my %prod = ( foo => 'bar' ); my %export= ( '%prod' => \%prod ); sub import { my ( $me, @syms )= @_; my $caller= caller(); for my $sym ( @syms ) { my $ref = $export{$sym}; if ( ! $ref ) { require Carp; Carp::croak( __PACKAGE__, " does not export $sym\n" ); } $sym =~ s/^[\$\@\%]//; no strict 'refs'; *{ $caller.'::'.$sym }= $ref; } }

Heh, that one isn't even limited to just exporting one variable (it doesn't support exporting groups of symbols yadda, of course).

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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.
