NAME

       Eval::TypeTiny - utility to evaluate a string of Perl code in a clean environment

STATUS

       This module is considered part of Type-Tiny's internals. It is not covered by the Type-Tiny stability
       policy.

DESCRIPTION

       This module is used by Type::Tiny to compile coderefs from strings of Perl code, and hashrefs of
       variables to close over.

   Functions
       This module exports one function, which works much like the similarly named function from Eval::Closure:

       "eval_closure(source => $source, environment => \%env, %opt)"

   Constants
       The following constants may be exported, but are not by default.

       "HAS_LEXICAL_SUBS"
           Boolean  indicating whether Eval::TypeTiny has support for lexical subs.  (This feature requires Perl
           5.18.)

       "HAS_LEXICAL_VARS"
           Don't worry; closing over lexical variables in the closures is always  supported!  However,  if  this
           constant  is  true, it means that Devel::LexAlias is available, which makes them slightly faster than
           the fallback solution which uses tied variables. (This only makes any difference when the  "alias  =>
           1" option is used.)

EVALUATION ENVIRONMENT

       The evaluation is performed in the presence of strict, but the absence of warnings. (This is different to
       Eval::Closure which enables warnings for compiled closures.)

       The feature pragma is not active in the evaluation environment, so the following will not work:

          use feature qw(say);
          use Eval::TypeTiny qw(eval_closure);

          my $say_all = eval_closure(
             source => 'sub { say for @_ }',
          );
          $say_all->("Hello", "World");

       The  feature  pragma  does  not  "carry  over"  into the stringy eval. It is of course possible to import
       pragmas into the evaluated string as part of the string itself:

          use Eval::TypeTiny qw(eval_closure);

          my $say_all = eval_closure(
             source => 'sub { use feature qw(say); say for @_ }',
          );
          $say_all->("Hello", "World");
