Perl::Critic::Exception::Configuration::Option(3)	User Contributed Perl Documentation	 Perl::Critic::Exception::Configuration::Option(3)

NAME

       Perl::Critic::Exception::Configuration::Option - A problem with an option in the Perl::Critic configuration.

DESCRIPTION

       A representation of a problem found with an option in the configuration of Perl::Critic, whether from a .perlcriticrc, another profile
       file, or command line.

       This is an abstract class.  It should never be instantiated.

INTERFACE SUPPORT

       This is considered to be a public class.  Any changes to its interface will go through a deprecation cycle.

METHODS

       "option_name()"
	   The name of the option that was found to be in error.

       "option_value()"
	   The value of the option that was found to be in error.

       "message_suffix()"
	   Any text that should be applied to end of the standard message for this kind of exception.

       "message()"
       "error()"
	   Overridden to call "full_message()".  I.e. any message string in the superclass is ignored.

       "full_message()"
	   Overridden to turn it into an abstract method to force subclasses to implement it.
