In A.pm
package A;
use FileArchiveIndexer::DEBUG;
use strict;
sub new {
my $class = shift;
my $self ={};
bless $self, $class;
return $self;

DEBUG or return 0;
return 1;
}
In script.t
use Test::Simple 'no_plan'; use strict; use A; my $o = new A; $A::DEBUG = 1; ok( $o->test ); $A::DEBUG = 0; ok( !($o->test) );

returns boolean
print STDERR "oops" if DEBUG;

argument is message, will only print to STDERR if DEBUG is on.
debug('only show this if DEBUG is on');
If your message argument does not end in a newline, next message will not be prepended with the subroutine name.
sub dostuff {
debug("This is..");
# ...
debug("done.\n");
debug("ok?");
}
Would print
dostuff(), This is.. done. dostuff(), ok?
