Can someone tell me if there is an official way to define a global variable?
use vars qw($global1 $global2);
or
our ($global1, $global2);
The latter cannot be used in Perl versions previous than 5.6.0. Note that the two methods do not do exactly the same thing; see the docs:
perldoc vars perldoc -f our
