Perl no warnings 'experimental' on old perl

Question

I have a piece of code which uses a lot of experimental (when, smartmatch, given) features, it's not my code, and I don't want to see a lot of warnings about experimental features. So I added no warnings 'experimental'; to this code. But experimental category was added only in perl 5.18 so my code dies in older perls:

Unknown warnings category 'experimental'

How can I disable this warnings and do not break my code in older perls?

Answer 1

Try installing and using the experimental module. On older perls it will do nothing, and on newer perls it will disable the warnings.

use experimental qw(smartmatch switch);
