I have a program that contains a subroutine that populates variables from
name-value pairs passed to it from an HTML form.
I want to improve my scripts by defining my variables using the 'my'
function and perhaps 'use strict;'. I don't think that I can use the full
function of strict because my code has to use symbolic references in order
to make the dynamic variable names. For example:
$$VARNAME = $PAIR_DATA;
AFAIK, there's no other way around this that will work with strict. So,
I'll probably be limited to:
use strict "vars";
#use strict "refs";
use strict "subs";
Having to define all variables using 'my' poses a problem when the
variables are created within the subroutine. Once I try to reference them
outside the subroutine I will get a warning saying that I have not defined
the variable. Obviously doing a 'my' when the variable is created in the
subroutine would not be of any use (only available inside the sub). Is
there perhaps a way to define the dynamic variable as being a global value?
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
TIA
Roland
