---
-- Strict declared global library. Checks for undeclared global variables
-- during runtime execution.
--
-- This module places the <code>strict</code> function in the global
-- environment. The strict function allows a script to add runtime checking so
-- that undeclared globals cause an error to be raised. This is useful for
-- finding accidental use of globals when local was intended.
--
-- A global variable is considered "declared" if the script makes an assignment
-- to the global name (even <code>nil</code>) in the file scope.
--
-- @class module
-- @name strict
-- @copyright Same as Nmap--See https://nmap.org/book/man-legal.html

--- The strict function.
--
-- This function adds runtime checking to the global environment for use of
-- undeclared globals. A global is 'undeclared' if not assigned in the file
-- (script) scope previously. An error will be raised on use of an undeclared
-- global.
--
-- This function should be passed last to stdnse.module in order to allow
-- other environment option functions (e.g. stdnse.seeall) to change the
-- environment first. This is important for allowing globals outside the
-- library (in _G) to be indexed.
--
-- @see stdnse.module
-- @usage
--  _ENV = stdnse.module(name, require "strict");
-- @param env The environment to modify.
