NAME
       Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitNestedSubs - "sub never {
       sub correct {} }".

AFFILIATION
       This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

DESCRIPTION
       Attention would-be clever Perl writers (including Younger RJBS):

       This does not do what you think:

         sub do_something {
             ...
             sub do_subprocess {
                 ...
             }
             ...
         }

       do_subprocess() is global, despite where it is declared.  Either write
       your subs without nesting or use anonymous code references.

CONFIGURATION
       This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.

NOTE
       Originally part of Perl::Critic::Tics.
