autodie::Scope::GuardStack - Hook stack for managing scopes via %^H
Contents
Description
This class is a stack of hooks to be called in the right order as scopes go away. The stack is only
useful when inserted into "%^H" and will pop hooks as their "scope" is popped. This is useful for
uninstalling or reinstalling subs in a namespace as a pragma goes out of scope.
Due to how "%^H" works, this class is only useful during the compilation phase of a perl module and
relies on the internals of how perl handles references in "%^H". This module is not a part of autodie's
public API.
Methodsnew
my $stack = autodie::Scope::GuardStack->new;
Creates a new "autodie::Scope::GuardStack". The stack is initially empty and must be inserted into "%^H"
by the creator.
push_hook
$stack->push_hook(sub {});
Add a sub to the stack. The sub will be called once the current compile-time "scope" is left. Multiple
hooks can be added per scope
