Dan, thank you for the information. From now on, I will say CORE. I understand that is lexical. My point is that already imported user functions need fully qualified names. For example, Think about that the generic name âget" is added to CORE namespace. User "get" function needs a fully qualified name. # Old code use Foo 'get'; get '/aaa'; # New code use v5.40; use Foo (); Foo::get '/aaa'; So I feel it would be better to have fewer collisions.Thread Previous | Thread Next
