Seems I found workaround:
package DB;
use strict;
use warnings;
our $level = 0;
sub test {
my $x = 0;
$x += $level;
print ">LEVEL: $level; VALUE: $x", \$x,"\n";
local $level = $level +1;
$^D |= (1<<30) if $level < 3;
main::t0();
print "<LEVEL: $level; VALUE: $x", \$x,"\n";
return;
}
sub DB {
test();
}
1;
$ perl -I. -d:DB t3.pl
>LEVEL: 0; VALUE: 0SCALAR(0xd05008)
>LEVEL: 1; VALUE: 1SCALAR(0xcfb6c8)
>LEVEL: 2; VALUE: 2SCALAR(0xd29ea8)
<LEVEL: 3; VALUE: 2SCALAR(0xd29ea8)
<LEVEL: 2; VALUE: 1SCALAR(0xcfb6c8)
<LEVEL: 1; VALUE: 0SCALAR(0xd05008)
