That's because you can't pass a block of code, you can only pass a
reference to a block of code, or the text that can be compiled into code
via eval.
See:
perldoc perlref
perldoc perlsub
Nice and helpful lecture.
The code could be altered to mimic code block, so foo could
be called like:
foo {
print "depth 1.\n" ;
} "test" ;
All this if foo has the prototype
sub foo(&$)
The question that I have is why isn't it possible to have
the block reference as the second parameter, so foo would be called as :
foo "test" {
print "depth 1\n"
} ;
