I'm looking to understand symbol tables and the symtable hash better. What's the motivation for ::() syntax? Is it mainly for binding aliases? How would $::("MY::bar") behave when my $bar has not been declared? (Similarly, what happens with an undeclared $::("Foo::bar") ?)
If I do the analogous thing with the symbol table hash, (how) is the behavior any different? What can you express with ::() but not with the symtable hash? -- Gaal Yahas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://gaal.livejournal.com/
