Synopsis

Flag values for `call` functions.

pattern G_VOID :: (Num a, Eq a) => a Source #

void context

pattern G_SCALAR :: (Num a, Eq a) => a Source #

scalar context

pattern G_ARRAY :: (Num a, Eq a) => a Source #

list context (yes - it IS called list context in the Perl docco, despite the name)

pattern G_DISCARD :: (Num a, Eq a) => a Source #

discard results

pattern G_NOARGS :: (Num a, Eq a) => a Source #

no args -- use with caution

pattern G_EVAL :: (Num a, Eq a) => a Source #

catch exceptions

pattern G_KEEPERR :: (Num a, Eq a) => a Source #

do ... something with errors. see perlcall

Flag values for `get_sv` "variable-creation" functions.

pattern GV_ADD :: (Num a, Eq a) => a Source #

used in calls to "get_sv" - specifies that the named variable should be created.

pattern GV_ADDMULTI :: (Num a, Eq a) => a Source #

may be bitwise-ORed with GV_ADD - specifies that no warning should be emitted if the variable is used only once.

pattern GV_ADDWARN :: (Num a, Eq a) => a Source #

may be bitwise-ORed with GV_ADD - issues the warning:

Had to create varname unexpectedly

if the named variable did not exist before the function was called.
