This is inferior to Sub::Name for two reasons:
- you have to put the magic line inside the anon sub
- all other anon subs down the call stack are renamed too, which is misleading
use strict;
use warnings;
use Carp;
sub foo {
my $bar = sub {
carp "*** inner anon sub called***";
};
$bar->();
}
sub generate {
my ( $name ) = @_ ;
return sub {
local *__ANON__ = $name
if $name;
carp "***sub called***";
foo();
}
}
sub super {
my $not_named = generate();
$not_named->();
my $named = generate('HulaHoop');
$named->();
}
super();
Still, it's good to know that it's possible to do it in pure perl.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
