Perl::Critic::Policy::TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitProlongedStrictureOverride(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation NAME Perl::Critic::Policy::TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitProlongedStrictureOverride - Don't turn off strict for large blocks of code. AFFILIATION This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution. DESCRIPTION Every agrees that "use strict" is the first step to writing maintainable code in Perl. However, sometimes "strict" is a little too strict. In those cases, you can turn it off briefly with a "no strict" directive. This policy checks that "no strict" is only in effect for a small number of statements. CONFIGURATION The default number of statements allowed per "no strict" is three. To override this number, put the following in your .perlcriticrc: [TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitProlongedStrictureOverride] statements = 5 AUTHOR Chris Dolan COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2006-2011 Chris Dolan.
