Why is this considered 'bad'?
There's some confusion over whether or not this is new, or has just surface
because we've started using
use warnings FATAL => 'all';
in some modules at $employer. (I suspect it's been warning for some time
and we've never noticed.)
$ perl -M5.14.0 -wle 'for my $i (qw/foo/) { eval { next; $i.=q{} }; } say
"done"'
Exiting eval via next at -e line 1.
done
perl -M5.14.0 -wle 'for my $i (qw/foo/) { eval { next; }; } say "done"'
Exiting eval via next at -e line 1.
done
# why no error?!
$ perl -M5.14.0 -wle 'for my $i (qw/foo/) { eval { $i.=q{}; next; }; } say
"done"'
done
What's the 'correct' way to exit the for loop?
