PPI::Statement::Break(3)                   User Contributed Perl Documentation


NAME
       PPI::Statement::Break - Statements which break out of normal statement
       flow

SYNOPSIS
         last;
         goto FOO;
         next if condition();
         return $foo;
         redo;

INHERITANCE
         PPI::Statement::Break
         isa PPI::Statement
             isa PPI::Node
                 isa PPI::Element

DESCRIPTION
       "PPI::Statement::Break" is intended to represent statements that break
       out of the normal statement flow control. This covers the basic types
       'redo', 'goto', 'next', 'last' and 'return'.

METHODS
       "PPI::Statement::Break" has no additional methods beyond the default
       ones provided by PPI::Statement, PPI::Node and PPI::Element.

       However, it is expected to gain methods for identifying the line to
       break to, or the structure to break out of.

TO DO
       - Add the methods to identify the break target

       - Add some proper unit testing

SUPPORT
       See the support section in the main module.
