=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
||
|
C<Symbol::gensym> creates an anonymous glob and returns a reference
|
||
|
to it. Such a glob reference can be used as a file or directory
|
||
|
handle.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For backward compatibility with older implementations that didn't
|
||
|
support anonymous globs, C<Symbol::ungensym> is also provided.
|
||
|
But it doesn't do anything.
|
||
|
|
||
|
C<Symbol::qualify> turns unqualified symbol names into qualified
|
||
|
variable names (e.g. "myvar" -E<gt> "MyPackage::myvar"). If it is given a
|
||
|
second parameter, C<qualify> uses it as the default package;
|
||
|
otherwise, it uses the package of its caller. Regardless, global
|
||
|
variable names (e.g. "STDOUT", "ENV", "SIG") are always qualified with
|
||
|
"main::".
|
||
|
|
||
|
Qualification applies only to symbol names (strings). References are
|
||
|
left unchanged under the assumption that they are glob references,
|
||
|
which are qualified by their nature.
|
||
|
|
||
|
C<Symbol::qualify_to_ref> is just like C<Symbol::qualify> except that it
|
||
|
returns a glob ref rather than a symbol name, so you can use the result
|
||
|
even if C<use strict 'refs'> is in effect.
|
||
|
|
||
|
C<Symbol::delete_package> wipes out a whole package namespace. Note
|
||
|
this routine is not exported by default--you may want to import it
|
||
|
explicitly.
