NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitImplicitNewlines - Use concatenation or HEREDOCs instead of literal line breaks in strings. AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution. DESCRIPTION
Strings with embedded line breaks are hard to read. Use concatenation or HEREDOCs instead. my $foo = "Line one is quite long Line two"; # Bad my $foo = "Line one is quite long Line two"; # Better, but still hard to read my $foo = "Line one is quite long " . "Line two"; # Better still my $foo = <<'EOF'; # Use heredoc for longer passages Line one is quite long Line two Line three breaks the camel's back EOF CONFIGURATION
