Subject: What does -w means in #!/usr/bin/perl -w
Hello all,
I use linux.
whenever we write a perl script we use
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
at the beginning. What does -w means here?
Is it perl specific or linux interpreter needs it?
perl -w enables warnings.
It's usefull for debugging purposes.
Marco.
True but best practices says you should `use warnings;` instead.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
