NAME
Sub::Current - Get the current subroutine
SYNOPSIS
use Sub::Current; sub f { # ... if ($some_condition) { # let's recurse! ROUTINE->(); } # ... }
DESCRIPTION
Sub::Current makes available a function "ROUTINE()", that returns a code reference pointing at the currently executing subroutine. In a special block (BEGIN, END, CHECK, INIT, and UNITCHECK in Perl 5.10) this function will return undef. Outside of a special block (that is, at the top level of a program) "ROUTINE()" will return undef as well. Note: on perl 5.16.0 and later you can use the built-in "__SUB__" instead, enabled by the pragma "use feature 'current_sub'".
