#$COMPILING

#$^C

The current value of the flag associated with the -c switch. Mainly of use with -MO=... to allow code to alter its behavior when being compiled, such as for example to AUTOLOAD at compile time rather than normal, deferred loading. Setting $^C = 1 is similar to calling B::minus_c.

This variable was added in Perl 5.6.
