NAME

Class::Dot::Devel::Sub::Name - Support better debugging output.

VERSION

This document describes MyClass version 2.0.0_15

SYNOPSIS

     use Class::Dot::Devel::Sub::Name qw(subname);
 
     my $this_pkg = __PACKAGE__;
     my $coderef = subname "$this_pkg\::name_of_this_sub" => sub {
         return 42;
     }

DESCRIPTION

This module exports Sub::Name's subname function if Sub::Name is installed. If it's not installed, subname is a function that does nothing except return it's arguments.

Instead of the regular __ANON__ name of perl subroutine references, which is not very useful in debugging and diagnostic output, Sub::Name gives subroutine references a real name. This is very useful for tasks like profiling and the like, but is not mission critical if it's not available.

See Sub::Name for more information.
