I’m currently having to modify a library that used Smart::Match extensively since I can no longer turn off the zillions of lines of experimental warnings in recent Perls. For people who are in a similar situation it’s looking like Data::Compare can replace the situations where I was doing ‘@foo ~~ @bar’, and it’s easy enough to write a “does this hash have this key” helper.
Meta complaint: I was already a bit annoyed at the whole smartmatch “oh whoops actually this is now experimental” saga but now that I’m stuck fixing this breakage I’m $annoyed++. Im getting annoyed enough that I may choose an older Perl that was “good enough” and just stop using the new ones

Hello all I have a .pl CGI program that calls a module with lots of code I'll call it LotsOfCode.pm now I need to update a few subs in it and possibly add a dependency.
The pl file looks like this:
use LotsOfCode;
Lotsofcode->cat();
LotsOfCode->dog();
Lotsofcode->fish();
Now I'd like this to say the same but I need to improve fish and cat. Say LotsOfCode.pm looks like this:
package LotsOfCode
sub fish {}
sub dog {}
sub cat {}
1;
I'd like to
mkdir ./LotsOfiCode
nano LotsOfCode/fish.pm move sub fish{} here
nano LotsOfCode/dog.pm move sub dog {} here
nano LotsOfCode/cat.pm move sub cat {} here
what do I put in the top of these new files in \LotsOfiCode ?
package LotsOfCode::fish;
or
package fish; ?
or
nothing is what I have so far just
sub fish {}
then in LotsOfCode.pm
do I go:
package LotsOfCode
use LotsOfiCode::fish
use LotsOfiCode::dog
use LotsOfiCode::cat
1;
or
do LotsOfCode::fish;
do LotsOfCode::cat;
do LotsOfCode::dog;
Thank you all in advance I get the more than one way to do it idea of Perl but feel like I keep fumbling with mixing old and new code.

Why is "!!" considered bad form in Perl?
During a recent job interview process, I submitted some sample Perl code which used the so-called "secret" !! operator. Later, when discussing the code, one of the interviewers asked me why I chos...Stack Overflow
Filed under "Things that one can do, but why?" , here is the repo of using Perl to learn assembly, or rather use Perl to avoid

- multiple files (Inline::ASM allows one to keep Perl and Assembly in the same file
Bonus :
- it is insane how efficient some of the list utilities at List::Util are !

I need to find the distance between two GPS coordinates. Geo::Calc does this effectively, but it hasn't been updated in over a decade, and, more seriously, it adds a significant startup delay just by loading the module:
root@1c8fb16bd7bb:/app# time perl -e 'use v5.38' real 0m0.005s user 0m0.001s sys 0m0.004s root@1c8fb16bd7bb:/app# time perl -e 'use v5.38; use Geo::Calc' real 0m0.679s user 0m0.631s sys 0m0.048s
This isn't a deal-breaker (honestly, it barely matters at all in production, but it's annoying for repeated loads during dev/testing), but I was wondering if anyone knew of a more-modern/more-efficient alternative. I searched google and metacpan but it's tough to wade through the noise for such a generic search term.

The portions of B::Generate associated with PADOP construction use static variables, and thus are not thread safe.
This release imports that section of Generate.xs into sealed.xs and removes the static variable dependencies.

- Rewrite the tests so that the functional tests are first and then the errors.
Hi! Asking for a wisdom here...
We have a module that modifies signal handler $SIG{__DIE__} to log information and to die afterwards. Hundreds of scripts relied on this module which worked fine in perl 5.10.1.
Recently we had the opportunity to install several Perl versions but unfortunately a large number of scripts that used to work with Perl 5.10.1 now behave differently:
- Failed in 5.14.4:
/home/dev/perl-5.14.4/bin/perl -wc
test.pl
RECEIVED SIGNAL - S_IFFIFO is not a valid Fcntl macro at /home/dev/perl-5.14.4/lib/5.14.4/File/stat.pm line 41
- Worked without changes in 5.26.3:
/home/dev/perl-5.26.3/bin/perl -wc
test.pl
test.pl
syntax OK
- Worked without changes in 5.38.2:
/home/dev/perl-5.38.2/bin/perl -wc test.pl
test.pl syntax OK
Many of the scripts can only be updated to 5.14.4 due to the huge jumps between 5.10 and 3.58; But we are stuck on that failures.
Was there an internal Perl change in 5.14 which cause the failures but works on other recent versions without any update on the scripts?
Cheerio!

My environment is perl/5.18.2 on CentOs 7
I'm trying to use a SWIG generated module in perl, which has a c plus plus backend. The backend.cpp sets an environment variable, $MY_ENV_VAR =1
But when I try to access this in perl, using $ENV{MY_ENV_VAR} this is undef.
However doing something like print echo $MY_ENV_VAR
works
So the variable is set in the process, but it's not reflected automatically since nothing updates the $ENV data structure.
I'm assuming it may work using some getEnv like mechanism, but is there a way to reset/ refresh the $ENV that it rebuilds itself from the current environment?
