for private subs S12 also says
Generally you'd just use a lexically scoped sub, though.
my sub foo ...
[Conjectural: To put a private sub into the class, say
our sub !foo ...
]
Which lead me to the thought that 'my method foo' is a bad idea because
the lexical scoping of the 'my' is orthogonal to the scope of the class.
class A {
my method foo { }
}
class A is also {
method bar {
# no way to access self!foo here
}
}
So is
our method !foo {}
allowed in classes? and is it the recommended way to declare private
methods?
