Deprecated warnings in Apache::DBI

["Paul G. Weiss" <PG...@arity.com>]

In my startup.pl I have

BEGIN
{
    no warnings qw(deprecated);
    use Apache::DBI;
}

yet when starting the server I always see

defined(@array) is deprecated at
/usrl1/home/pweiss/perl-56/lib/site_perl/5.6.0/Apache/DBI.pm line 135.
        (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?)


Shouldn't 'no warnings' suppress this?

-P

I don't have 5.6 to test this, but isn't the warnings pragma lexical and
not dynamic now?  Which means it's doing the right thing.

Also, it's probably right - shouldn't Apache::DBI be changed?

Perhaps doing "local $^W;" instead of "no warnings qw(deprecated);" will
be a bandaid for you.
