NAME

Devel::Decouple::DB - decouple code from imported functions

SYNOPSIS

This module is intended to facilitate the testing and refactoring of legacy Perl code.

To generate a simple report about a module's or script's use of imported functions you can use Devel::Decouple::DB via the debugger.

    perl -d:Decouple::DB myscript.pl
    

Then using the parent class Devel::Decouple, perhaps in a test file, you can easily redefine any of the functions that were listed to decouple (redefine) the problematic dependencies.

    # for the given module automatically redefine all called
    # functions that were imported (as no-ops)
    
    my $DD = Devel::Decouple->new();
    $DD->decouple( 'Some::Module' );

For a detailed description and rationale please see the documentation for Devel::Decouple.
