The idea here is that the "all" group gets a subgroup, "xyzzy," which contains all current warnings. Later, warnings can be added to "all" that are only enabled when specifically requested (or by the bold, explicit request for everything we can throw at the programmer). > "perldoc -f warnings" talks about default warnings, (as opposed > to optional warnings), but when it comes down to discussing > the warnings category hierarchie, there's no peep about > mandatory vs optional anymore. This terminology will need to be clear. Either we stop calling the old default-on warnings "default," or we call the new group "standard," or something. I think this will just be a naming quesiton, and shouldn't be too much of a big deal. -- rjbsThread Previous | Thread Next
