NAME

PPIx::QuoteLike::Constant - Constants needed by PPIx-QuoteLike

SYNOPSIS

This package is private to the PPIx-QuoteLike distribution.

DESCRIPTION

This module is private to the PPIx-QuoteLike package. Documentation is for the benefit of the author, who reserves the right to change or revoke anything here, including the entire module, without notice.

This module provides importable manifest constants used by multiple modules in the PPIx-QuoteLike package. Nothing is exported by default.

CONSTANTS

The following importable constants are provided:

@CARP_NOT

This global variable contains the names of all modules in the package. It's not a constant in the sense of use constant, but needs to live here for heredity reasons.

ARRAY_REF

This manifest constant contains the value of ref [], i.e. 'ARRAY'.

MINIMUM_PERL

The minimum version of Perl understood by this parser, as a string. It is currently set to '5.000', since that is the minimum version of Perl accessible to the author.

SUFFICIENT_UTF8_SUPPORT_FOR_WEIRD_DELIMITERS

A Boolean which is true if the running version of Perl has UTF-8 support sufficient for our purposes.

Currently that means 5.8.3 or greater, with the specific requirements being use open qw{ :std :encoding(utf-8) }, /\p{Mark}/, and the ability to parse things like qr \N{U+FFFF}foo\N{U+FFFF}.

VARIABLE_RE

This constant is a regular expression object that matches Perl variable names, without the leading sigil. Nothing is captured.

SUPPORT

Support is by the author. Please file bug reports at https://github.com/trwyant/perl-PPIx-QuoteLike/issues, or in electronic mail to the author.
