Yesterday I created a new when clause in an existing working program, which
worked fine, but today when I came to exercise another previously working
when clause it was broken.
The golfed version...
my $a = 41;
given 6 {
when 5 {
my $a;
}
when 6 {
say $a + 1;
}
}
When run with various version of rakudo (at least on 2019.07.1 and current
HEAD) this produces
Use of uninitialized value of type Rakudo::Internals::LoweredAwayLexical in
numeric context
Is this expected? If nothing else, the error message is decidedly LTA.
I fixed it in my case by removing the unnecessary redeclaration of $a in
the when clause, but there might be times when that is incorrect.
(And on a side note, are there plans to move this mailing list to
raku-users@somewhere? There's nothing about it in the path to raku
document.)
Kevin.
