libsafe-hole-perl 0.17-1

Package Information

DescriptionPerl module which makes a "hole" in the Safe compartment

libsafe-hole-perl allows externally defined routines and methods of objects to be called from within the Safe compartment. However, those subroutines and methods are executed within the Safe compartment, so they are unable to call other subroutines which are dynamically qualified with the package name such as class methods.

Through Safe::Hole, it is possible to execute externally defined subroutines in the original main compartment from the Safe compartment.
