NAME

PPI::Statement::Data - The __DATA__ section of a file

SYNOPSIS

  # Normal content
  
  __DATA__
  This: data
  is: part
  of: the
  PPI::Statement::Data: object

INHERITANCE

  PPI::Statement::Compound
  isa PPI::Statement
      isa PPI::Node
          isa PPI::Element

DESCRIPTION

PPI::Statement::Data is a utility class designed to hold content in the __DATA__ section of a file. It provides a single statement to hold all of the data.

METHODS

PPI::Statement::Data has no additional methods beyond the default ones provided by PPI::Statement, PPI::Node and PPI::Element.

However, it is expected to gain methods for accessing the data directly, (as a filehandle for example) just as you would access the data in the Perl code itself.

TO DO

- Add the methods to read in the data

- Add some proper unit testing

SUPPORT

See the support section in the main module.
