NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Freenode::PackageMatchesFilename - Module files should declare a package matching the filename
DESCRIPTION
Perl modules are normally loaded by require (possibly via use or no). When given a module name, require will translate this into a filename and then load whatever that file contains. The file doesn't need to actually contain a package matching the module name initially given to require, but this can be confusing if later operations (including import as called by use) expect the package to exist. Furthermore, the absence of such a package is usually an indicator of a typo in the package name.
## in file My/Module.pm
package My::Module;This policy is similar to the core policy Perl::Critic::Policy::Modules::RequireFilenameMatchesPackage, but only requires that one package name within a module file matches the filename.
AFFILIATION
This policy is part of Perl::Critic::Freenode.
CONFIGURATION
This policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
