What's wrong with that? I find it a lot more readable than
my $vote;
if ($bar) {
$vote = $foo;
}
It doesn't work this way, but suppose you wrote this:
if ($bar) {
my $vote = $foo
}
Now see why it's wrong? The way you wrote it is kind of ambiguous for
the way we think of postfix operators. If you want something one line,
how about this:
my $vote = $foo ? $bar : undef;
I can't replicate this behaviour. As far as I can tell, the postfix if
is identical to the block if I wrote above.
perl -Mstrict -wle 'my $foo = 1 if 0; print defined $foo ? $foo : "undef"'
undef
Has the bug been fixed?
Matt
