strictness and fully qualified global vars

2004-12-28 Thread Alexey Trofimenko
in perl5 C doesn't save us from typo bugs in code like use strict; print $OtherPackage::erroneuos_name; in perl5 C auotovivifies ${__PACKAGE__ . "::"}{var} glob at compile time, so there's something one could check with C, but to do it manually is senseless. And there are no globs in perl6.

Native data structure for parrot?

2004-12-28 Thread Graciliano M. P.
Hello, I don't know if this is the best place to post this. Recently with Perl5 I had a big problem with big data structure using Perl5 HASHes. The problem was with a search in a big database, where to make this search we used a group of threads with a random entry. Bascially we need to search fr
