Overview

This module lexically disables the use of bareword filehandles with builtin functions, except for the special builtin filehandles "STDIN", "STDOUT", "STDERR", "ARGV", "ARGVOUT" and "DATA".

Methods

Disables bareword filehandles for the remainder of the scope being compiled.

import

Enables bareword filehandles for the remainder of the scope being compiled.

Limitations

Filetest operators ("-X") can not be checked on Perl versions before 5.32, because hooking the op check function for these breaks stacked tests, e.g. "-f -w -x $file".
