METHODS

58   new
59         my $eval = Eval::WithLexicals->new(
60           lexicals => { '$x' => \1 },      # default {}
61           in_package => 'PackageToEvalIn', # default Eval::WithLexicals::Scratchpad
62           context => 'scalar',             # default 'list'
63           prelude => 'use warnings',       # default 'use strictures 1'
64         );
65
66   eval
67         my @return_value = $eval->eval($code_to_eval);
68
69   lexicals
70         my $current_lexicals = $eval->lexicals;
71
72         $eval->lexicals(\%new_lexicals);
73
74   in_package
75         my $current_package = $eval->in_package;
76
77         $eval->in_package($new_package);
78
79   context
80         my $current_context = $eval->context;
81
82         $eval->context($new_context); # 'list', 'scalar' or 'void'
83
84   prelude
85       Code to run before evaling code. Loads strictures by default.
86
87         my $current_prelude = $eval->prelude;
88
89         $eval->prelude(q{use warnings}); # only warnings, not strict.
90
91   with_plugins
92         my $eval = Eval::WithLexicals->with_plugins("HintPersistence")->new;
93
94       Construct a class with the given plugins. Plugins are roles located
95       under a package name like "Eval::WithLexicals::With*".
96
97       Current plugins are:
98
99       •   HintPersistence
100
101           When enabled this will persist pragams and other compile hints
102           between evals (for example the strict and warnings flags in
103           effect). See Eval::WithLexicals::WithHintPersistence for further
104           details.
