perl-Perl-Critic - Critique Perl source code for best-practices

Vendor: city-fan.org repo http://www.city-fan.org/ftp/contrib/
Description:
Perl::Critic is an extensible framework for creating and applying coding
standards to Perl source code. Essentially, it is a static source code
analysis engine. Perl::Critic is distributed with a number of
Perl::Critic::Policy modules that attempt to enforce various coding
guidelines. Most Policy modules are based on Damian Conway's book Perl
Best Practices. However, Perl::Critic is not limited to PBP and will
even support Policies that contradict Conway. You can enable, disable,
and customize those Polices through the Perl::Critic interface. You can
also create new Policy modules that suit your own tastes.

Packages

perl-Perl-Critic-1.117-1.fc8.noarch [1004 KiB] Changelog by Paul Howarth (2011-12-22):
- update to 1.117
  New Policies:
  - Variables::ProhibitAugmentedAssignmentInDeclaration reports constructs like
    'my $x += 1'
  Policy Changes:
  - BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitLvalueSubstr: add explicit 'use version'
    (CPAN RT#68498)
  - CodeLayout::ProhibitHardTabs: add 'pbp' to the default_themes list
    (CPAN RT#71093)
  - ControlStructures::ProhibitMutatingListFunctions now understands that
    tr///r (introduced in 5.13.7) does not change its operand
  - ControlStructures::ProhibitMutatingListFunctions now understands that
    '//=', '<<=', and '>>=' are assignment operators (CPAN RT#70901)
  - ErrorHandling::RequireCheckingReturnValueOfEval now allows things
    like grep { eval $_ } (CPAN RT#69489)
  - Modules::RequireExplicitPackage now has configuraion option
    allow_import_of, to allow the import of specified modules before the
    package statement (CPAN RT#72660)
  - RegularExpressions::ProhibitEnumeratedClasses no longer thinks
    that [A-Za-z_] matches \w. RT #69322.
  - RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusedCaptures now skips the first block of
    an 'if' or 'elsif' if the regular expression is bound to its operand with
    the '!~' operator (CPAN RT#69867)
  - RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusedCaptures now looks into lists and blocks
    in the replacement portion of the regular expression if /e is asserted
    (CPAN RT#72086)
  - RegularExpressions::RequireDotMatchAnything,
    RegularExpressions::RequireExtendedFormatting and
    RegularExpressions::RequireLineBoundaryMatching now honor defaults set with
    'use re "/modifiers"' (CPAN RT#72151)
  - Subroutines::ProhibitManyArgs now recognizes '+' as a prototype character
  - Variables::ProhibitPunctuationVars now recognizes bracketed variables
    embedded in interpolated strings (e.g. "${$}"); for the purpose of the
    'allow' configuration, these are considered equivalent to the unbracketed
    form (CPAN RT#72910)
  Other Changes:
  - corrected POD in Perl::Critic::PPI::Utils (CPAN RT#68898)
  - Perl::Critic::Violation source() method now returns the line containing
    the violation (not the first line) when the statement containing the
    violation spans multiple lines
- this release by THALJEF -> update source URL
- drop stopwords patch, now included upstream
