chromatic,
I maintain a small amount of Perl code on the DarkPAN and am trying to
modernise. (Keep advocating for responsible, frequent updates. I work with
Vinnie Alves of http://usestrict.net/. We can handle it.) I have loaded
Strawberry Perl 5.10.0.03 on my personal laptop, and pulled down
Perl::Critic, Padre and Modern::Perl from the cpan command line. Here's my
little hello.pl:
use Modern::Perl;
say "hello";
I get this warning from Perl::Critic:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\Dad\Perl>perlcritic hello.pl
Code before strictures are enabled at line 4, column 1. See page 429 of
PBP. (Severity: 5)
C:\Users\Public\Documents\Dad\Perl>
When I add "use strict;" at the top, the warning goes away. This seems a
waste, since Modern::Perl enables use strict. I don't know if there is a
way to get Modern::Perl to suppress this warning, but I thought I would ask.
Thanks,
3om
