Subject: constant redefinition does not produce a warning
Does anyone know why the following:
use strict;
use warnings;
use constant I => 1;
use constant I => 2;
print I();
does not produce a warning about the redefinition of I? That is a real pain
as I had about 60 constants and had one redefined and never knew it until it
became a real pain to fix. I'm running perl 5.6.1. Does anyone know if it
warns on a newer version?
Thanks!
Tanton
