Devel::Caller::IgnoreNamespaces(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		      Devel::Caller::IgnoreNamespaces(3pm)

NAME

       Devel::Caller::IgnoreNamespaces - make available a magic caller() which can ignore namespaces that you tell it about

SYNOPSIS

	   package Foo::Bar

	   use Devel::Caller::IgnoreNamespaces;
	   Devel::Caller::IgnoreNamespaces::register(__PACKAGE__);

DESCRIPTION

       If your module should be ignored by caller(), just like Hook::LexWrap is by its magic caller(), then call this module's register()
       subroutine with its name.

SUBROUTINES

   register('packagename', 'anotherpackage', ...)
       Takes a list of packages that caller() will ignore in future.
