38					=head1 DESCRIPTION
39
40					The functions exported by this module deal with runtime handling of
41					Perl modules, which are normally handled at compile time. This module
42					avoids using any other modules, so that it can be used in low-level
43					infrastructure.
44
45					The parts of this module that work with module names apply the same syntax
46					that is used for barewords in Perl source. In principle this syntax
47					can vary between versions of Perl, and this module applies the syntax of
48					the Perl on which it is running. In practice the usable syntax hasn't
49					changed yet. There's some intent for Unicode module names to be supported
50					in the future, but this hasn't yet amounted to any consistent facility.
51
52					The functions of this module whose purpose is to load modules include
53					workarounds for three old Perl core bugs regarding C<require>. These
54					workarounds are applied on any Perl version where the bugs exist, except
55					for a case where one of the bugs cannot be adequately worked around in
56					pure Perl.
57
58					=head2 Module name syntax
59
60					The usable module name syntax has not changed from Perl 5.000 up to
61					Perl 5.19.8. The syntax is composed entirely of ASCII characters.
62					From Perl 5.6 onwards there has been some attempt to allow the use of
63					non-ASCII Unicode characters in Perl source, but it was fundamentally
64					broken (like the entirety of Perl 5.6's Unicode handling) and remained
65					pretty much entirely unusable until it got some attention in the Perl
66					5.15 series. Although Unicode is now consistently accepted by the
67					parser in some places, it remains broken for module names. Furthermore,
68					there has not yet been any work on how to map Unicode module names into
69					filenames, so in that respect also Unicode module names are unusable.
70
71					The module name syntax is, precisely: the string must consist of one or
72					more segments separated by C<::>; each segment must consist of one or more
73					identifier characters (ASCII alphanumerics plus "_"); the first character
74					of the string must not be a digit. Thus "C<IO::File>", "C<warnings>",
75					and "C<foo::123::x_0>" are all valid module names, whereas "C<IO::>"
76					and "C<1foo::bar>" are not. C<'> separators are not permitted by this
77					module, though they remain usable in Perl source, being translated to
78					C<::> in the parser.
79
80					=head2 Core bugs worked around
81
82					The first bug worked around is core bug [perl #68590], which causes
83					lexical state in one file to leak into another that is C<require>d/C<use>d
84					from it. This bug is present from Perl 5.6 up to Perl 5.10, and is
85					fixed in Perl 5.11.0. From Perl 5.9.4 up to Perl 5.10.0 no satisfactory
86					workaround is possible in pure Perl. The workaround means that modules
87					loaded via this module don't suffer this pollution of their lexical
88					state. Modules loaded in other ways, or via this module on the Perl
89					versions where the pure Perl workaround is impossible, remain vulnerable.
90					The module L<Lexical::SealRequireHints> provides a complete workaround
91					for this bug.
92
93					The second bug worked around causes some kinds of failure in module
94					loading, principally compilation errors in the loaded module, to be
95					recorded in C<%INC> as if they were successful, so later attempts to load
96					the same module immediately indicate success. This bug is present up
97					to Perl 5.8.9, and is fixed in Perl 5.9.0. The workaround means that a
98					compilation error in a module loaded via this module won't be cached as
99					a success. Modules loaded in other ways remain liable to produce bogus
100					C<%INC> entries, and if a bogus entry exists then it will mislead this
101					module if it is used to re-attempt loading.
102
103					The third bug worked around causes the wrong context to be seen at
104					file scope of a loaded module, if C<require> is invoked in a location
105					that inherits context from a higher scope. This bug is present up to
106					Perl 5.11.2, and is fixed in Perl 5.11.3. The workaround means that
107					a module loaded via this module will always see the correct context.
108					Modules loaded in other ways remain vulnerable.

355					This is an analogue of L</use_module> for the situation where there is
356					uncertainty as to whether a package/class is defined in its own module
357					or by some other means. It attempts to arrange for the named package to
358					be available, either by loading a module or by doing nothing and hoping.
359
360					An attempt is made to load the named module (as if by the bareword form
361					of C<require>). If the module cannot be found then it is assumed that
362					the package was actually already loaded by other means, and no error
363					is signalled. That's the optimistic bit.
364
365					This is mostly the same operation that is performed by the L<base> pragma
366					to ensure that the specified base classes are available. The behaviour
367					of L<base> was simplified in version 2.18, and later improved in version
368					2.20, and on both occasions this function changed to match.
369
370					If a I<VERSION> is specified, the C<VERSION> method of the loaded package is
371					called with the specified I<VERSION> as an argument. This normally serves
372					to ensure that the version loaded is at least the version required.
373					On success, the name of the package is returned. These aspects of the
374					function work just like L</use_module>.

435					=item compose_module_name(PREFIX, SPEC)
436
437					This function is intended to make it more convenient for a user to specify
438					a Perl module name at runtime. Users have greater need for abbreviations
439					and context-sensitivity than programmers, and Perl module names get a
440					little unwieldy. I<SPEC> is what the user specifies, and this function
441					translates it into a module name in standard form, which it returns.
442
443					I<SPEC> has syntax approximately that of a standard module name: it
444					should consist of one or more name segments, each of which consists
445					of one or more identifier characters. However, C</> is permitted as a
446					separator, in addition to the standard C<::>. The two separators are
447					entirely interchangeable.
448
449					Additionally, if I<PREFIX> is not C<undef> then it must be a module
450					name in standard form, and it is prefixed to the user-specified name.
451					The user can inhibit the prefix addition by starting I<SPEC> with a
452					separator (either C</> or C<::>).

472
473					On Perl versions 5.7.2 to 5.8.8, if C<require> is overridden by the
474					C<CORE::GLOBAL> mechanism, it is likely to break the heuristics used by
475					L</use_package_optimistically>, making it signal an error for a missing
476					module rather than assume that it was already loaded. From Perl 5.8.9
477					onwards, and on 5.7.1 and earlier, this module can avoid being confused
478					by such an override. On the affected versions, a C<require> override
479					might be installed by L<Lexical::SealRequireHints>, if something requires
480					its bugfix but for some reason its XS implementation isn't available.
