13 use String::RewritePrefix;
14 my @to_load = String::RewritePrefix->rewrite(
15 { '' => 'MyApp::', '+' => '' },
16 qw(Plugin Mixin Addon +Corporate::Thinger),
17 );
18
19 # now you have:
20 qw(MyApp::Plugin MyApp::Mixin MyApp::Addon Corporate::Thinger)
21
22 You can also import a rewrite routine:
23
24 use String::RewritePrefix rewrite => {
25 -as => 'rewrite_dt_prefix',
26 prefixes => { '' => 'MyApp::', '+' => '' },
27 };
28
29 my @to_load = rewrite_dt_prefix( qw(Plugin Mixin Addon +Corporate::Thinger));
30
31 # now you have:
32 qw(MyApp::Plugin MyApp::Mixin MyApp::Addon Corporate::Thinger)

35 This module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates
36 from the Perl 5 Porters. This means it should work on any version of
37 perl released in the last two to three years. (That is, if the most
38 recently released version is v5.40, then this module should work on
39 both v5.40 and v5.38.)
40
41 Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made
42 that the minimum required version will not be increased. The version
43 may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches
44 will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.

47 rewrite
48 String::RewritePrefix->rewrite(\%prefix, @strings);
49
50 This rewrites all the given strings using the rules in %prefix. Its
51 keys are known prefixes for which its values will be substituted. This
52 is performed in longest-first order, and only one prefix will be
53 rewritten.
54
55 If the prefix value is a coderef, it will be executed with the
56 remaining string as its only argument. The return value will be used
57 as the prefix.
