=head1 NAME

assertions - select assertions in blocks of code

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  sub assert (&) : assertion { &{$_[0]}() }

  use assertions 'foo';
  assert { print "asserting 'foo'\n" };

  {
      use assertions qw( foo bar );
      assert { print "asserting 'foo' and 'bar'\n" };
  }

  {
      use assertions qw( bar );
      assert { print "asserting only 'bar'\n" };
  }

  {
      use assertions ' _ && bar ';
      assert { print "asserting 'foo' && 'bar'\n" };
  }

  assert { print "asserting 'foo' again\n" };

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The C<assertions> pragma specifies the tags used to enable and disable
the execution of assertion subroutines.

An assertion subroutine is declared with the C<:assertion> attribute.
This subroutine is not normally executed : it's optimized away by perl
at compile-time.

The C<assertion> pragma associates to its lexical scope one or several
assertion tags. Then, to activate the execution of the assertions
subroutines in this scope, these tags must be given to perl via the
B<-A> command-line option.
