strict - Perl pragma to restrict unsafe constructs
use strict "vars";
use strict "refs";
use strict "subs";
- use strict "untie";
use strict;
no strict "vars";
If no import list is supplied, all possible restrictions are assumed.
(This is the safest mode to operate in, but is sometimes too strict for
-casual programming.) Currently, there are four possible things to be
-strict about: "subs", "vars", "refs", and "untie".

=item C<strict vars>
This generates a compile-time error if you access a variable that wasn't
-localized via C<my()> or wasn't fully qualified. Because this is to avoid
+declared via C<our> or C<use vars>,
+localized via C<my()>, or wasn't fully qualified. Because this is to avoid
variable suicide problems and subtle dynamic scoping issues, a merely
local() variable isn't good enough. See L<perlfunc/my> and
L<perlfunc/local>.
my $foo = 10; # ok, my() var
local $foo = 9; # blows up
+ package Cinna;
+ our $bar; # Declares $bar in current package
+ $bar = 'HgS'; # ok, global declared via pragma
+
The local() generated a compile-time error because you just touched a global
name without fully qualifying it.
+Because of their special use by sort(), the variables $a and $b are
+exempted from this check.
+
=item C<strict subs>
This disables the poetry optimization, generating a compile-time error if
you try to use a bareword identifier that's not a subroutine, unless it
-appears in curly braces or on the left hand side of the "=E<gt>" symbol.

+is a simple identifier (no colons) and that it appears in curly braces or

-=item C<strict untie>
-
-This generates a runtime error if any references to the object returned
-by C<tie> (or C<tied>) still exist when C<untie> is called. Note that
-to get this strict behaviour, the C<use strict 'untie'> statement must
-be in the same scope as the C<untie>. See L<perlfunc/tie>,
-L<perlfunc/untie>, L<perlfunc/tied> and L<perltie>.

- use strict 'untie';
- $a = tie %a, 'SOME_PKG';
- $b = tie %b, 'SOME_PKG';
- $b = 0;
- tie %c, PKG;
- $c = tied %c;
- untie %a ; # blows up, $a is a valid object reference.
- untie %b; # ok, $b is not a reference to the object.
- untie %c ; # blows up, $c is a valid object reference.
