NAME

PM::Packages - Find all packages from a .pm file

SYNOPSIS

    use PM::Packages;

    my @packages = pm_packages( "Honk/Bonk.pm" );

DESCRIPTION

pm_packages returns all packages a given file creates. It does this by doing a text scan of the file, looking for lines that start with package. It ignores POD, __END__ and __DATA__.

It will ignore a package that is split onto two lines.

    package
        Is::Ignored;

It can not detect packages that are created programatically.

This code was copied from PAUSE::pmfile::packages_per_pmfile.
