deprecate - Perl pragma for deprecating the core version of a module
use deprecate; # always deprecate the module in which this occurs
use if $] > 5.010, 'deprecate'; # conditionally deprecate the module
This module is used using use deprecate; (or something that calls
deprecate->import() , for example use if COND, deprecate; ).
If the module that includes use deprecate is located in a core library
directory, a deprecation warning is issued, encouraging the user to use
the version on CPAN. If that module is located in a site library, it is
the CPAN version, and no warning is issued.
None by default. The only method is import , called by use deprecate; .
First example to use deprecate; was Switch.
