NAME

6       B::Keywords - Lists of reserved barewords and symbol names
7

SYNOPSIS

9         use B::Keywords qw( @Symbols @Barewords );
10         print join "\n", @Symbols,
11                          @Barewords;
12

DESCRIPTION

14       "B::Keywords" supplies several arrays of exportable keywords: @Scalars,
15       @Arrays, @Hashes, @Filehandles, @Symbols, @Functions, @Barewords,
16       @TieIOMethods, @UNIVERSALMethods and @ExporterSymbols.
17
18       The @Symbols array includes the contents of each of @Scalars, @Arrays,
19       @Hashes, @Functions and @Filehandles.
20
21       Similarly, @Barewords adds a few non-function keywords and operators to
22       the @Functions array.
23
24       All additions and modifications are welcome.
25
26       The perl parser uses a static list of keywords from regen/keywords.pl
27       which constitutes the strict list of keywords @Functions and
28       @Barewords, though some @Functions are not functions in the strict
29       sense.  Several library functions use more special symbols, handles and
30       methods.
31

DATA

33       @Scalars
34       @Arrays
35       @Hashes
36       @Filehandles
37       @Functions
38           The above are lists of variables, special file handles, and built
39           in functions.
40
41       @Symbols
42           This is just the combination of all of the above: variables, file
43           handles, and functions.
44
45       @Barewords
46           This is a list of other special keywords in perl including
47           operators and all the control structures.
48
49       @TieIOMethods
50           Those are special tie or PerlIO methods called by the perl core,
51           namely for tieing or PerlIO::via (or both of those) or threads.
52
53       @UNIVERSALMethods
54           Methods defined by the core package UNIVERSAL.
55
56       @ExporterSymbols
57           Variables or functions used by Exporter (some internal), which is
58           almost as good as being keywords, for you mustn't use them for any
59           other purpose in any package that isa Exporter, which is quite
60           common.
61

EXPORT

63       Anything can be exported if you desire. Use the :all tag to get
64       everything.
