NAME

Perl::ToPerl6::Transformer::Packages::RewriteDeclarations - Format 'package Foo;' declarations

AFFILIATION

This Transformer is part of the core Perl::ToPerl6 distribution.

DESCRIPTION

The Perl6 equivalent of a Perl5 package is 'class'. Older Perl5 source uses package Foo; while some more modern source uses package Foo { .. } to delineate package boundaries:

  package Foo; --> class Foo { ... }
  package # ?
  Foo;         --> class\n# ?\nFoo { ... }
  package Foo { ... } --> class Foo { ... }

Other transformers will be responsible for ensuring that perl5 classes inherit correctly.

CONFIGURATION

This Transformer is not configurable except for the standard options.
