This pragma provides a way to minimize that risk. New syntactic constructs, or new semantic meanings to older constructs, can be enabled by C, and will be parsed only when the appropriate feature pragma is in scope. (Nevertheless, the C prefix provides access to all Perl keywords, regardless of this pragma.) =head2 Lexical effect Like other pragmas (C, for example), features have a lexical effect. C will only make the feature "foo" available from that point to the end of the enclosing block. { use feature 'say'; say "say is available here"; } print "But not here.\n"; =head2 C Features can also be turned off by using C. This too has lexical effect. use feature 'say'; say "say is available here"; { no feature 'say'; print "But not here.\n"; } say "Yet it is here."; C with no features specified will reset to the default group. To disable I features (an unusual request!) use C. =head1 AVAILABLE FEATURES =head2 The 'say' feature C tells the compiler to enable the Raku-inspired C function. See L for details. This feature is available starting with Perl 5.10. =head2 The 'state' feature C tells the compiler to enable C variables. See L for details. This feature is available starting with Perl 5.10. =head2 The 'switch' feature B: This feature is still experimental and the implementation may change or be removed in future versions of Perl. For this reason, Perl will warn when you use the feature, unless you have explicitly disabled the warning: no warnings "experimental::smartmatch"; C tells the compiler to enable the Raku given/when construct. See L for details. This feature is available starting with Perl 5.10. =head2 The 'unicode_strings' feature C tells the compiler to use Unicode rules in all string operations executed within its scope (unless they are also within the scope of either C or C). The same applies to all regular expressions compiled within the scope, even if executed outside it. It does not change the internal representation of strings, but only how they are interpreted. C tells the compiler to use the traditional Perl rules wherein the native character set rules is used unless it is clear to Perl that Unicode is desired. This can lead to some surprises when the behavior suddenly changes. (See L for details.) For this reason, if you are potentially using Unicode in your program, the C subpragma is B recommended. This feature is available starting with Perl 5.12; was almost fully implemented in Perl 5.14; and extended in Perl 5.16 to cover C; was extended further in Perl 5.26 to cover L; and was extended again in Perl 5.28 to cover L. =head2 The 'unicode_eval' and 'evalbytes' features Together, these two features are intended to replace the legacy string C function, which behaves problematically in some instances. They are available starting with Perl 5.16, and are enabled by default by a S> or higher declaration. C changes the behavior of plain string C to work more consistently, especially in the Unicode world. Certain (mis)behaviors couldn't be changed without breaking some things that had come to rely on them, so the feature can be enabled and disabled. Details are at L. C is like string C, but it treats its argument as a byte string. Details are at L. Without a S> nor a S> (or higher) declaration in the current scope, you can still access it by instead writing C. =head2 The 'current_sub' feature This provides the C<__SUB__> token that returns a reference to the current subroutine or C outside of a subroutine. This feature is available starting with Perl 5.16. =head2 The 'array_base' feature This feature supported the legacy C<$[> variable. See L. It was on by default but disabled under C (see L, below) and unavailable since perl 5.30. This feature is available under this name starting with Perl 5.16. In previous versions, it was simply on all the time, and this pragma knew nothing about it. =head2 The 'fc' feature C tells the compiler to enable the C function, which implements Unicode casefolding. See L for details. This feature is available from Perl 5.16 onwards. =head2 The 'lexical_subs' feature In Perl versions prior to 5.26, this feature enabled declaration of subroutines via C, C and C syntax. See L for details. This feature is available from Perl 5.18 onwards. From Perl 5.18 to 5.24, it was classed as experimental, and Perl emitted a warning for its usage, except when explicitly disabled: no warnings "experimental::lexical_subs"; As of Perl 5.26, use of this feature no longer triggers a warning, though the C warning category still exists (for compatibility with code that disables it). In addition, this syntax is not only no longer experimental, but it is enabled for all Perl code, regardless of what feature declarations are in scope. =head2 The 'postderef' and 'postderef_qq' features The 'postderef_qq' feature extends the applicability of L so that postfix array and scalar dereference are available in double-quotish interpolations. For example, it makes the following two statements equivalent: my $s = "[@{ $h->{a} }]"; my $s = "[$h->{a}->@*]"; This feature is available from Perl 5.20 onwards. In Perl 5.20 and 5.22, it was classed as experimental, and Perl emitted a warning for its usage, except when explicitly disabled: no warnings "experimental::postderef"; As of Perl 5.24, use of this feature no longer triggers a warning, though the C warning category still exists (for compatibility with code that disables it). The 'postderef' feature was used in Perl 5.20 and Perl 5.22 to enable postfix dereference syntax outside double-quotish interpolations. In those versions, using it triggered the C warning in the same way as the 'postderef_qq' feature did. As of Perl 5.24, this syntax is not only no longer experimental, but it is enabled for all Perl code, regardless of what feature declarations are in scope. =head2 The 'signatures' feature This enables syntax for declaring subroutine arguments as lexical variables. For example, for this subroutine: sub foo ($left, $right) { return $left + $right; } Calling C will assign C<3> into C<$left> and C<7> into C<$right>. See L for details. This feature is available from Perl 5.20 onwards. From Perl 5.20 to 5.34, it was classed as experimental, and Perl emitted a warning for its usage, except when explicitly disabled: no warnings "experimental::signatures"; As of Perl 5.36, use of this feature no longer triggers a warning, though the C warning category still exists (for compatibility with code that disables it). This feature is now considered stable, and is enabled automatically by C (or higher). =head2 The 'refaliasing' feature B: This feature is still experimental and the implementation may change or be removed in future versions of Perl. For this reason, Perl will warn when you use the feature, unless you have explicitly disabled the warning: no warnings "experimental::refaliasing"; This enables aliasing via assignment to references: \$a = \$b; # $a and $b now point to the same scalar \@a = \@b; # to the same array \%a = \%b; \&a = \&b; foreach \%hash (@array_of_hash_refs) { ... } See L for details. This feature is available from Perl 5.22 onwards. =head2 The 'bitwise' feature This makes the four standard bitwise operators (C<& | ^ ~>) treat their operands consistently as numbers, and introduces four new dotted operators (C<&. |. ^. ~.>) that treat their operands consistently as strings. The same applies to the assignment variants (C<&= |= ^= &.= |.= ^.=>). See L for details. This feature is available from Perl 5.22 onwards. Starting in Perl 5.28, C will enable the feature. Before 5.28, it was still experimental and would emit a warning in the "experimental::bitwise" category. =head2 The 'declared_refs' feature B: This feature is still experimental and the implementation may change or be removed in future versions of Perl. For this reason, Perl will warn when you use the feature, unless you have explicitly disabled the warning: no warnings "experimental::declared_refs"; This allows a reference to a variable to be declared with C, C, our C, or localized with C. It is intended mainly for use in conjunction with the "refaliasing" feature. See L for examples. This feature is available from Perl 5.26 onwards. =head2 The 'isa' feature This allows the use of the C infix operator, which tests whether the scalar given by the left operand is an object of the class given by the right operand. See L for more details. This feature is available from Perl 5.32 onwards. From Perl 5.32 to 5.34, it was classed as experimental, and Perl emitted a warning for its usage, except when explicitly disabled: no warnings "experimental::isa"; As of Perl 5.36, use of this feature no longer triggers a warning (though the C warning category stilll exists for compatibility with code that disables it). This feature is now considered stable, and is enabled automatically by C (or higher). =head2 The 'indirect' feature This feature allows the use of L for method calls, e.g. C. It is enabled by default, but can be turned off to disallow indirect object syntax. This feature is available under this name from Perl 5.32 onwards. In previous versions, it was simply on all the time. To disallow (or warn on) indirect object syntax on older Perls, see the L CPAN module. =head2 The 'multidimensional' feature This feature enables multidimensional array emulation, a perl 4 (or earlier) feature that was used to emulate multidimensional arrays with hashes. This works by converting code like C<< $foo{$x, $y} >> into C<< $foo{join($;, $x, $y)} >>. It is enabled by default, but can be turned off to disable multidimensional array emulation. When this feature is disabled the syntax that is normally replaced will report a compilation error. This feature is available under this name from Perl 5.34 onwards. In previous versions, it was simply on all the time. You can use the L module on CPAN to disable multidimensional array emulation for older versions of Perl. =head2 The 'bareword_filehandles' feature. This feature enables bareword filehandles for builtin functions operations, a generally discouraged practice. It is enabled by default, but can be turned off to disable bareword filehandles, except for the exceptions listed below. The perl built-in filehandles C, C, C, C, C, C and the special C<_> are always enabled. This behavior was always present in versions before Perl 5.34. In Perl 5.34, it was made controllable with the C pragma, but was on by default. It is not present in the C<:5.36> feature bundle, so C disables this feature. You can use the L module on CPAN to disable bareword filehandles for older versions of perl. =head2 The 'try' feature. B: This feature is still experimental and the implementation may change or be removed in future versions of Perl. For this reason, Perl will warn when you use the feature, unless you have explicitly disabled the warning: no warnings "experimental::try"; This feature enables the C and C syntax, which allows exception handling, where exceptions thrown from the body of the block introduced with C are caught by executing the body of the C block. For more information, see L. =head2 The 'defer' feature This feature enables the C block syntax, which allows a block of code to be deferred until when the flow of control leaves the block which contained it. For more details, see L. =head2 The 'extra_paired_delimiters' feature B: This feature is still experimental and the implementation may change or be removed in future versions of Perl. For this reason, Perl will warn when you use the feature, unless you have explicitly disabled the warning: no warnings "experimental::extra_paired_delimiters"; This feature enables the use of more paired string delimiters than the traditional four, S >>>, S>, S>, and S>. When this feature is on, for example, you can say SpatE<187>>>. This feature is available starting in Perl 5.36.

The name of a feature bundle is prefixed with a colon, to distinguish it from an actual feature. use feature ":5.10"; The following feature bundles are available: bundle features included --------- ----------------- :default indirect multidimensional bareword_filehandles :5.10 bareword_filehandles indirect multidimensional say state switch :5.12 bareword_filehandles indirect multidimensional say state switch unicode_strings :5.14 bareword_filehandles indirect multidimensional say state switch unicode_strings :5.16 bareword_filehandles current_sub evalbytes fc indirect multidimensional say state switch unicode_eval unicode_strings :5.18 bareword_filehandles current_sub evalbytes fc indirect multidimensional say state switch unicode_eval unicode_strings :5.20 bareword_filehandles current_sub evalbytes fc indirect multidimensional say state switch unicode_eval unicode_strings :5.22 bareword_filehandles current_sub evalbytes fc indirect multidimensional say state switch unicode_eval unicode_strings :5.24 bareword_filehandles current_sub evalbytes fc indirect multidimensional postderef_qq say state switch unicode_eval unicode_strings :5.26 bareword_filehandles current_sub evalbytes fc indirect multidimensional postderef_qq say state switch unicode_eval unicode_strings :5.28 bareword_filehandles bitwise current_sub evalbytes fc indirect multidimensional postderef_qq say state switch unicode_eval unicode_strings :5.30 bareword_filehandles bitwise current_sub evalbytes fc indirect multidimensional postderef_qq say state switch unicode_eval unicode_strings :5.32 bareword_filehandles bitwise current_sub evalbytes fc indirect multidimensional postderef_qq say state switch unicode_eval unicode_strings :5.34 bareword_filehandles bitwise current_sub evalbytes fc indirect multidimensional postderef_qq say state switch unicode_eval unicode_strings :5.36 bitwise current_sub evalbytes fc isa postderef_qq say signatures state unicode_eval unicode_strings The C<:default> bundle represents the feature set that is enabled before any C or C declaration. Specifying sub-versions such as the C<0> in C<5.14.0> in feature bundles has no effect. Feature bundles are guaranteed to be the same for all sub-versions. use feature ":5.14.0"; # same as ":5.14" use feature ":5.14.1"; # same as ":5.14" =head1 IMPLICIT LOADING Instead of loading feature bundles by name, it is easier to let Perl do implicit loading of a feature bundle for you. There are two ways to load the C pragma implicitly: =over 4 =item * By using the C<-E> switch on the Perl command-line instead of C<-e>. That will enable the feature bundle for that version of Perl in the main compilation unit (that is, the one-liner that follows C<-E>). =item * By explicitly requiring a minimum Perl version number for your program, with the C construct. That is, use v5.10.0; will do an implicit no feature ':all'; use feature ':5.10'; and so on. Note how the trailing sub-version is automatically stripped from the version. But to avoid portability warnings (see L), you may prefer: use 5.010; with the same effect. If the required version is older than Perl 5.10, the ":default" feature bundle is automatically loaded instead. Unlike C, saying C (or any higher version) also does the equivalent of C; see L for details. =back =head1 CHECKING FEATURES C provides some simple APIs to check which features are enabled. These functions cannot be imported and must be called by their fully qualified names. If you don't otherwise need to set a feature you will need to ensure C is loaded with: use feature (); =over =item feature_enabled($feature) =item feature_enabled($feature, $depth) package MyStandardEnforcer; use feature (); use Carp "croak"; sub import { croak "disable indirect!" if feature::feature_enabled("indirect"); } Test whether a named feature is enabled at a given level in the call stack, returning a true value if it is. C<$depth> defaults to 1, which checks the scope that called the scope calling feature::feature_enabled(). croaks for an unknown feature name. =item features_enabled() =item features_enabled($depth) package ReportEnabledFeatures; use feature "say"; sub import { say STDERR join " ", feature::features_enabled(); } Returns a list of the features enabled at a given level in the call stack. C<$depth> defaults to 1, which checks the scope that called the scope calling feature::features_enabled(). =item feature_bundle() =item feature_bundle($depth) Returns the feature bundle, if any, selected at a given level in the call stack. C<$depth> defaults to 1, which checks the scope that called the scope calling feature::feature_bundle(). Returns an undefined value if no feature bundle is selected in the scope. The bundle name returned will be for the earliest bundle matching the selected bundle, so: use feature (); use v5.12; BEGIN { print feature::feature_bundle(0); } will print C<5.11>. This returns internal state, at this point C sets the feature bundle, but C< use feature ":5.12"; > does not set the feature bundle.
