Thanks. This looks like it's exactly what I was looking for. Is this lexically scoped in such a way that if it happens in a method, the foo_name_space that is require'd in can't be seen by another mod_perl process?
Also, to clarify, here is a small example using Symbol as suggested:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Symbol qw( delete_package );
+
eval {
do './foo_name_space.dat';
print "within eval: ",$foo_name_space::data,"\n" if $foo_name_space:
+:data;
delete_package('foo_name_space');
};
if( $@ ){
print "Oops [$!]","\n";
}
if($foo_name_space::data){
print "outside eval: ",$foo_name_space::data,"\n"
}else{
print "no such namespace\n";
}

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).
