NAME

Perl::ToPerl6::Transformer::Pragma::RewritePragmas - Remove unnecessary pragmas

AFFILIATION

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

DESCRIPTION

Removes uneeded Perl5 pragmas. More specifically, it removes all core pragmas except v6, constant, base and parent. The v6 pragma remains untouched, constant will be transformed later into <constant FOO = 1>, base and parent are added to the class declaration:

  use strict; --> ''
  no strict 'refs'; --> ''
  use warnings; --> ''
  use constant FOO => 1; --> use constant FOO => 1;
  use base qw(Foo); --> use base qw(Foo);

Transforms pragmas outside of comments, heredocs, strings and POD.

The 'constant', 'base' and 'parent' pragmas are left untouched for later transformers, so that they can do their Perl6 things.

CONFIGURATION

This Transformer is not configurable except for the standard options.
