[ID 20010331.003] No warning under -w for use of push/unshiftcalled with just ARRAY and ommittance of EXPR
Message ID:
001c01c0ba37$44bf9df0$2604c2d5@profit



This is a bug report for perl from Administrator@localhost,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.28 running under perl v5.6.0.

perl -wle '@a = (1..10); for (@a) {push @b;} $a = @b; print $a;' # prints 0---
 
Description:
When using unshift/push with just ARRAY and not EXPR, one is basicly assigning "" to ARRAY, which seems futile
Perl does not warn for this tho under -w

Flags:
    category=core
    severity=low
