Aspect::Legacy(3pm)

💖 Aspect::Legacy — the manual, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, you're reading the Aspect::Legacy(3pm) page and honestly? it's giving time capsule. let's get into it ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

Aspect::Legacy — legacy compatibility for Aspect.pm, no cap 🫶

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like. Aspect::Legacy implements emulated support for the Aspect module as it existed in various forms before the 1.00 release in 2010. yes, we're doing archaeology, and it's iconic 💅

this includes both:

• full legacy support for the original Ran Eilam release series ending in release 0.12 👑
• support for code written against the 0.16 to 0.99 development release series 🦋

in its default usage, it's intended as a drop-in upgrade for any old Aspect-oriented code that got absolutely wrecked by the changes in the second-generation implementation (that's version 0.90 or later, created during 2010). 😭

to upgrade your old code, it is literally this simple — change:

use Aspect;

to:

use Aspect::Legacy;

and it should continue to function as normal. periodt. 🎀
