It's a more flexible alternative for both the command line flag B<-w> and the equivalent Perl variable, C<$^W>. This pragma works just like the C pragma. This means that the scope of the warning pragma is limited to the enclosing block. It also means that the pragma setting will not leak across files (via C, C or C). This allows authors to independently define the degree of warning checks that will be applied to their module. By default, optional warnings are disabled, so any legacy code that doesn't attempt to control the warnings will work unchanged. All warnings are enabled in a block by either of these: use warnings; use warnings 'all'; Similarly all warnings are disabled in a block by either of these: no warnings; no warnings 'all'; For example, consider the code below: use warnings; my @a; { no warnings; my $b = @a[0]; } my $c = @a[0]; The code in the enclosing block has warnings enabled, but the inner block has them disabled. In this case that means the assignment to the scalar C<$c> will trip the C<"Scalar value @a[0] better written as $a[0]"> warning, but the assignment to the scalar C<$b> will not. =head2 Default Warnings and Optional Warnings Before the introduction of lexical warnings, Perl had two classes of warnings: mandatory and optional. As its name suggests, if your code tripped a mandatory warning, you would get a warning whether you wanted it or not. For example, the code below would always produce an C<"isn't numeric"> warning about the "2:". my $a = "2:" + 3; With the introduction of lexical warnings, mandatory warnings now become I warnings. The difference is that although the previously mandatory warnings are still enabled by default, they can then be subsequently enabled or disabled with the lexical warning pragma. For example, in the code below, an C<"isn't numeric"> warning will only be reported for the C<$a> variable. my $a = "2:" + 3; no warnings; my $b = "2:" + 3; Note that neither the B<-w> flag or the C<$^W> can be used to disable/enable default warnings. They are still mandatory in this case. =head2 What's wrong with B<-w> and C<$^W> Although very useful, the big problem with using B<-w> on the command line to enable warnings is that it is all or nothing. Take the typical scenario when you are writing a Perl program. Parts of the code you will write yourself, but it's very likely that you will make use of pre-written Perl modules. If you use the B<-w> flag in this case, you end up enabling warnings in pieces of code that you haven't written. Similarly, using C<$^W> to either disable or enable blocks of code is fundamentally flawed. For a start, say you want to disable warnings in a block of code. You might expect this to be enough to do the trick: { local ($^W) = 0; my $a =+ 2; my $b; chop $b; } When this code is run with the B<-w> flag, a warning will be produced for the C<$a> line: C<"Reversed += operator">. The problem is that Perl has both compile-time and run-time warnings. To disable compile-time warnings you need to rewrite the code like this: { BEGIN { $^W = 0 } my $a =+ 2; my $b; chop $b; } The other big problem with C<$^W> is the way you can inadvertently change the warning setting in unexpected places in your code. For example, when the code below is run (without the B<-w> flag), the second call to C will trip a C<"Use of uninitialized value"> warning, whereas the first will not. sub doit { my $b; chop $b; } doit(); { local ($^W) = 1; doit() } This is a side-effect of C<$^W> being dynamically scoped. Lexical warnings get around these limitations by allowing finer control over where warnings can or can't be tripped. =head2 Controlling Warnings from the Command Line There are three Command Line flags that can be used to control when warnings are (or aren't) produced: =over 5 =item B<-w> X<-w> This is the existing flag. If the lexical warnings pragma is B used in any of you code, or any of the modules that you use, this flag will enable warnings everywhere. See L for details of how this flag interacts with lexical warnings. =item B<-W> X<-W> If the B<-W> flag is used on the command line, it will enable all warnings throughout the program regardless of whether warnings were disabled locally using C or C<$^W =0>. This includes all files that get included via C, C or C. Think of it as the Perl equivalent of the "lint" command. =item B<-X> X<-X> Does the exact opposite to the B<-W> flag, i.e. it disables all warnings. =back =head2 Backward Compatibility If you are used to working with a version of Perl prior to the introduction of lexically scoped warnings, or have code that uses both lexical warnings and C<$^W>, this section will describe how they interact. How Lexical Warnings interact with B<-w>/C<$^W>: =over 5 =item 1. If none of the three command line flags (B<-w>, B<-W> or B<-X>) that control warnings is used and neither C<$^W> nor the C pragma are used, then default warnings will be enabled and optional warnings disabled. This means that legacy code that doesn't attempt to control the warnings will work unchanged. =item 2. The B<-w> flag just sets the global C<$^W> variable as in 5.005. This means that any legacy code that currently relies on manipulating C<$^W> to control warning behavior will still work as is. =item 3. Apart from now being a boolean, the C<$^W> variable operates in exactly the same horrible uncontrolled global way, except that it cannot disable/enable default warnings. =item 4. If a piece of code is under the control of the C pragma, both the C<$^W> variable and the B<-w> flag will be ignored for the scope of the lexical warning. =item 5. The only way to override a lexical warnings setting is with the B<-W> or B<-X> command line flags. =back The combined effect of 3 & 4 is that it will allow code which uses the C pragma to control the warning behavior of $^W-type code (using a C) if it really wants to, but not vice-versa. =head2 Category Hierarchy X A hierarchy of "categories" have been defined to allow groups of warnings to be enabled/disabled in isolation. The current hierarchy is: =for warnings.pl tree-goes-here Just like the "strict" pragma any of these categories can be combined use warnings qw(void redefine); no warnings qw(io syntax untie); Also like the "strict" pragma, if there is more than one instance of the C pragma in a given scope the cumulative effect is additive. use warnings qw(void); # only "void" warnings enabled ... use warnings qw(io); # only "void" & "io" warnings enabled ... no warnings qw(void); # only "io" warnings enabled To determine which category a specific warning has been assigned to see L. Note: Before Perl 5.8.0, the lexical warnings category "deprecated" was a sub-category of the "syntax" category. It is now a top-level category in its own right. Note: Before 5.21.0, the "missing" lexical warnings category was internally defined to be the same as the "uninitialized" category. It is now a top-level category in its own right. =head2 Fatal Warnings X The presence of the word "FATAL" in the category list will escalate warnings in those categories into fatal errors in that lexical scope. B FATAL warnings should be used with care, particularly C<< FATAL => 'all' >>. Libraries using L for custom warning categories generally don't expect L to be fatal and can wind up in an unexpected state as a result. For XS modules issuing categorized warnings, such unanticipated exceptions could also expose memory leak bugs. Moreover, the Perl interpreter itself has had serious bugs involving fatalized warnings. For a summary of resolved and unresolved problems as of January 2015, please see L. While some developers find fatalizing some warnings to be a useful defensive programming technique, using C<< FATAL => 'all' >> to fatalize all possible warning categories -- including custom ones -- is particularly risky. Therefore, the use of C<< FATAL => 'all' >> is L. The L module on CPAN offers one example of a warnings subset that the module's authors believe is relatively safe to fatalize. B users of FATAL warnings, especially those using C<< FATAL => 'all' >>, should be fully aware that they are risking future portability of their programs by doing so. Perl makes absolutely no commitments to not introduce new warnings or warnings categories in the future; indeed, we explicitly reserve the right to do so. Code that may not warn now may warn in a future release of Perl if the Perl5 development team deems it in the best interests of the community to do so. Should code using FATAL warnings break due to the introduction of a new warning we will NOT consider it an incompatible change. Users of FATAL warnings should take special caution during upgrades to check to see if their code triggers any new warnings and should pay particular attention to the fine print of the documentation of the features they use to ensure they do not exploit features that are documented as risky, deprecated, or unspecified, or where the documentation says "so don't do that", or anything with the same sense and spirit. Use of such features in combination with FATAL warnings is ENTIRELY AT THE USER'S RISK. The following documentation describes how to use FATAL warnings but the perl5 porters strongly recommend that you understand the risks before doing so, especially for library code intended for use by others, as there is no way for downstream users to change the choice of fatal categories. In the code below, the use of C
