Subject: Allow "use constant::lexical"
Hi, Would you consider adding a feature: to make the following valid: use constant::lexical; If you do that now, you get: Can't use undef as constant name at - line 1 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at - line 1. This means you can't do something like: use constant::lexical; $version = $constant::lexical::VERSION; I have a couple of tools which do things like this. I had a quick look at the import function, but haven't got my head around it yet :-) cheers, Neil
