PPI::Statement::Include::Perl6(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		       PPI::Statement::Include::Perl6(3pm)

NAME
PPI::Statement::Include::Perl6 - Inline Perl 6 file section SYNOPSIS
use v6-alpha; grammar My::Grammar { ... } INHERITANCE
PPI::Statement::Include::Perl6 isa PPI::Statement::Include isa PPI::Statement isa PPI::Node isa PPI::Element DESCRIPTION
A "PPI::Statement::Include::Perl6" is a special include statement that indicates the start of a section of Perl 6 code inlined into a regular Perl 5 code file. The primary purpose of the class is to allow PPI to provide at least basic support for "6 in 5" modules like v6.pm; Currently, PPI only supports starting a Perl 6 block. It does not currently support changing back to Perl 5 again. Additionally all POD and __DATA__ blocks and __END__ blocks will be included in the Perl 6 string and will not be parsed by PPI. perl6 The "perl6" method returns the block of Perl 6 code that is attached to the "use v6...;" command. TO DO
- Write specific unit tests for this package SUPPORT
See the support section in the main module. AUTHOR
