NAME

ex::caution - Perl pragma for enabling or disabling strictures and warnings simultaneously

SYNOPSIS

  use ex::caution;
  no ex:caution;

DESCRIPTION

ex:caution allows you to enable or disable warnings and strictures simultaneously with one command. Unlike either strict or warnings it does not support arguments. It is all or nothing.

    use ex::caution;

is exactly equivalent to

    use strict;
    use warnings;

and

    no ex::caution;

is exactly equivalent to

    no strict;
    no warnings;

EXPORT

Enables warnings and stricts in the lexical scope in which it is used.

NOTE

This module is currently in the 'ex' namespace as this is the approved way to release experimental pragmata. If approved it will be renamed to simply 'caution';

BUGS

Its probably a bug that we support

    no caution;

but, well, not supporting it wouldn't be the Perl way.

SEE ALSO

strict, warnings
