Package: libexporter-lite-perl Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: perl Installed-Size: 29 Maintainer: Debian Perl Group <pkg-perl-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org> [Debian Bug Report] Architecture: all Multi-Arch: foreign Version: 0.09-2 Depends: perl:any Description: lightweight subset of Exporter Exporter::Lite is an alternative to Exporter, intended to provide a lightweight subset of the most commonly-used functionality. It supports import(), @EXPORT and @EXPORT_OK and not a whole lot else. Exporter::Lite simply exports its import() function into your namespace. This might be called a "mix-in" or a "role". When Exporter::Lite was written, if you wanted to use Exporter you had to write something like this: use Exporter; our @ISA = qw/ Exporter /; Exporter::Lite saved you from writing that second line. But since before 2010 you've been able to write: use Exporter qw/ import /; which imports the import function into your namespace from Exporter. As a result, it is recommended to use Exporter now, as it's a core module (shipped with Perl).
