PPIx::Utils::Language(3)                   User Contributed Perl Documentation


NAME
       PPIx::Utils::Language - Utility functions for PPI related to the Perl
       language

SYNOPSIS
           use PPIx::Utils::Language ':all';

DESCRIPTION
       This package is a component of PPIx::Utils that contains functions
       related to aspects of the Perl language.

FUNCTIONS
       All functions can be imported by name, or with the tag ":all".

   precedence_of
           my $precedence = precedence_of($element);

       Given a PPI::Token::Operator or a string, returns the precedence of the
       operator, where 1 is the highest precedence.  Returns undef if the
       precedence can't be determined (which is usually because it is not an
       operator).

   symbol_without_sigil
           my $name = symbol_without_sigil($symbol);

       Returns the name of the specified symbol with any sigil at the front.
       The parameter can be a vanilla Perl string or a PPI::Element.

BUGS
       Report any issues on the public bugtracker.
