You can kind of do this via XS, but definitely not from regular Perl
without an eval(). Of course, you shouldn't be shy with eval() in mod_perl
as Apache::Registry, Apache::ASP, and most everything else uses eval()
anyway. Anyway, for doing it from XS something like this works:
void declare_package(pTHX_ SV *sv_name) {
PL_curstash = gv_stashsv(sv_name, TRUE);
sv_setsv(PL_curstname, sv_name);
}
Take a look at the Perl documentation for stashes in perlguts(1):
http://www.perl.com/CPAN/doc/manual/html/pod/perlguts.html#Stashes_and_Globs
Humbly,
Andrew
